Dog-Harmony, Inc. is a volunteer-run, non-profit organization, made up of passionate and determined problem-solving dog lovers who want to make a difference using personalized and ongoing education, support, and training for people and dogs.
They take the hard work and emotional stress out of choosing the right dog by initially having you answer a questionnaire based on the ASPCA "Meet Your Match" program, discussing your needs with you and proposing only breeds that are right for you. Then they will suggest available dogs currently awaiting homes from local kill shelters or in situations where they need rehousing and will also work with you through the training process.
Ultimately, their goal is the same as yours and the same as your prospective new friend—to match the right home with the right dog.
