PET DESCRIPTION: Heinz is an almost one-year-old male, Pomeranian/Chihuahua/Dachshund mix, about 16 lbs. His older owner only had him about three weeks but he was getting underfoot too much and became a tripping hazard. He loves people, is ok with cats and tolerates other dogs but might get very jealous of another dog getting near his owner so likely best as the only dog in the home. No children please. He is very active and also can jump quite high. Housetrained and does like to talk.

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.

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.

To apply to adopt, please complete our Preliminary Adoption Application. Submitting an application does not commit you to adopting. It allows us to determine whether the pet is a good match for your home and family.

As part of the approval process, we verify the veterinary history of current and previous pets, including annual vaccinations and spay/neuter status. Please contact your veterinarian in advance and authorize them to release this information to Clayton County Humane Society.

Dog adoption fees range from $250 to $400. Each dog receives:

Age-appropriate vaccinations

Spay or neuter surgery

Heartworm testing and treatment, if necessary

Deworming

Flea prevention

A microchip registered to the adopter

You must have an approved application before scheduling a meeting with a pet. For additional information, please email info@streetpaws.org.

Daisy's story began on Cleveland Avenue, where she was abandoned and left to fend for herself. Kind-hearted people rescued her and hoped her owner might come looking, so she was taken to Fulton County Animal Services. No one ever came.

She was then welcomed into a foster home where life was finally looking up...until her foster had to move. Heartbreakingly, Daisy ended up back at Fulton County. This time, she was housed with several other dogs, where she was attacked, leaving her bitten, bruised, and suffering. SHE IS ALL WELL NOW!

Thankfully, the very person who had originally rescued Daisy had been keeping an eye on her. When they discovered what had happened, they rushed to save her once again. Now, A Welcome Home Animal Rescue has welcomed Daisy into the program, and she's finally safe.

Why Everyone Loves Daisy

❤️ Sweet, gentle, and incredibly affectionate
Gets along with dogs
Cat friendly
Loves children!!!!
Friendly with everyone she meets!
️ Calm, easygoing, and well-mannered
Smart and eager to please
So grateful for every act of kindness

After everything she's endured, Daisy hasn't become bitter. She simply wants someone to love...and she'll spend the rest of her life showing you just how thankful she is.

She's fully vetted, healthy, and ready to leave her difficult past behind forever.

A home with a fenced yard would be wonderful, but what Daisy truly wants is a family who will love her as much as she'll love them.

Don't let this Daisy wilt waiting for her forever family.

PET DESCRIPTION: Scooter is eight-months-old (as of mid-Oct) male Bloodhound/German Shepherd mix pup, should be in the 60 lb range when fully grown. He is a hoot - typical bloodhound in being head strong since he wants to follow his nose. A well fenced yard is an absolute or he will be GONE. But, Scooter is also pretty laid back in attitude. Loves everyone, 'go with the flow' kind of temperament.' Scooter has the German Shepherd brains. He also really likes Air Conditioning so he doesn't want to live outside most of the time.
