About Harmony

Harmony is fostering in the Fort Worth, TX area and is part of a network of dogs being promoted to help them find the right home. At about three or four years old, Harmony is a neutered male Catahoula mix, weighing in around 55–65 pounds. He has a clean bill of health, is heartworm negative, current on vaccinations and fully crate trained. His story is the classic second-chance—barely out of the shelter, now waiting for the right adopter to come along. Active and playful, Harmony needs space to run and would thrive with a securely fenced yard. He does well with other dogs who match his energy and makes a fun, lively playmate. Harmony is not a fit for a household with cats; his prey drive is too strong. He’s adaptable to either a single person, a couple, or a family with school-aged children. Old enough to be reliable yet still youthful, Harmony is smart, eager to learn, and ready for any challenge—whether that's hiking, running, or mastering new tricks. He rides well in the car and isn’t anxious in new situations. If you’ve been waiting for an active, loyal companion who wants to explore the world with you, Harmony might be your match.
