Story
Please contact ADOPTION (adopt@doggieharmony.org) for more information about this pet.URGENT: Penelope, Sweet 25-lb Girl Who Needs Someone Patient Sit on the floor, wait quietly, and Penelope will come to you, then melt into your lap. Once this 3-year-old feels safe, she’s sweet, playful, and endlessly affectionate. She wants to be the center of her person’s world. About 3 years old, 25 lbs, spayed female Reliably uses pee pads Quiet and non-destructive when left alone Good on leash Spayed, Vaccinated, heartworm negative Watch Video >>> Penelope's True Personality Watch Video >>> Penelope's Love for Apples & Bananas Watch Video >>> Penelope on a Car Ride What she needs: Penelope is an anxious girl, and she takes daily anxiety medication. If someone approaches or tries to catch her too quickly, she may bark or nip out of fear. Let her come to you, and she will. She does not do well crated (she’ll cry for hours) but doesn’t need to be. She does best with someone home much of the day who can give her plenty of attention. Other pets: She’s best as the only dog, or with a carefully matched, easygoing companion. She does well with confident cats but may chase a fearful one. Best fit: a patient adult or retiree, a calm and consistent home, older respectful kids at most. Penelope has been through several homes, and her current foster isn’t a long-term option. She needs her forever person soon. Questions: asimon100@outlook.com Apply: https://doggieharmony.org/forms Doggie Harmony is a pet placement and matchmaking service that works with community members who are already housing a pet. Interested adopters are asked to apply at https://doggieharmony.org/forms and allow a home visit, so we can make sure each pet is a great match. Please ask the pet’s current caretaker directly about their return process, and request an adoption contract. While we can’t offer immediate intake for dogs that need to be returned, we’re always happy to help a family rehome a pet while they continue to care for it. Every match keeps a pet out of Georgia’s overcrowded shelters, where more than 30,000 dogs and cats are euthanized each year. Last Updated: 11/3/26November 3, 2026, 8:51 pm

Meet Penelope – Your Energetic Adventure Buddy! Age: 3 years oldBreed: Rat Terrier MixWeight: 24 lbsSpayed, Vaccinated, and Microchipped Penelope is a spunky, high-energy girl who’s always ready to go! At just 24 pounds, she’s the perfect compact companion for an active lifestyle. Are you a runner? Love hikes? Into agility? Sally just might be your perfect match—she would make an excellent agility dog with her smarts, speed, and enthusiasm.

Story
I got Luna about 2-3 years ago as a baby she’s a great dog she listens well and she loves to play she likes running she is a alert dog she barks when she sees a stranger but will not harm! With other dogs she gets timid as she’ll want to play if they’re smaller dogs than her she’s very gentle she’s aware of smaller dogs as she’ll had a little sister chihuahua we had but she passed she loves jumping too and loves balls:) I’m giving her away bc I’ve had her as a outside dog for abt a year and a half bc I haven’t been able to have much time for her and I know she deserve better than to be outside with barely seeing me… I want her to be in a happy environment with people that will love her and care for her and they have time for her as I don’t anymore:( she’s had her ravies vaccines and I believe the first 6 months vaccines but she is a very healthy girl !as of her breed I am honestly not sure at all they told me se was a chihuahua but it’s clear my baby isn’t🥲

Story
Lola is a cute, affectionate girl with a heart full of love! When Lola first meets someone new, she can be a little scared and unsure. She just needs some patience and a little time to feel safe. But once she knows she can trust you, her true personality comes out—and she is an incredibly loving and affectionate companion.Lola is the kind of dog who may need a gentle introduction, but once she opens her heart to you, she will happily return that love with plenty of cuddles, companionship, and sweet moments.

Story
A foster-to-adopt option is available for me, giving us the chance to get to know each other before making it official! Zela is a 13-year-old senior girl who returned to Furkids after years in a home when her previous owner could no longer care for her. She is a sweet, sensitive girl with a big personality and very unique needs as she continues to age. Zela is deaf and is also showing signs consistent with dementia. This means she may become confused at times, especially in the mornings, and can feel scared or unsettled until she fully wakes up. During these moments, she benefits from calm reassurance and gentle affection. Once awake, she typically settles in and does well. In the evenings, Zela can become more restless, often pacing or having bursts of energy that may include playful zoomies. She can also be mouthy during these times, which is not aggression but rather part of her excitement. Zela does not always have strong self-preservation awareness and may try to climb or jump in unsafe ways. Because of this, she requires a secure home environment and careful supervision to keep her safe. She can also be stubborn at times, especially around transitions like bedtime or getting ready for outings, and does best when allowed to move at her own pace. She is crate and house trained but dislikes being picked up and needs a patient, understanding home that uses positive reinforcement and respects her boundaries. Due to her needs, she is not suited for a home with small or young children. Zela is a very special senior who forms strong bonds with her person and enjoys calm companionship. She would thrive in a patient, structured home that can provide safety, stability, and gentle love in her golden years. Zela currently weighs about 22lbs., is approximately 13 years old (est. birth date 01/14/2013), and her adoption fee is $175. Zela has been spayed, is up to date on all vaccinations & preventatives, and is microchipped. If you want to know more about Zela, please complete a survey at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FKDS/Dog. After submitting a survey, an adoption counselor will contact you within 72 hours to give you more information about the dog you are interested in adopting and to arrange for you to meet. You must be at least 21 years of age to adopt.
