Mission: Dogs In Harmony is a small volunteer organization based in Winchester TN, which works hard to rescue dogs fromhigh kill shelters, unhealthy situations or local shelters where dogs have been abandoned or surrendered. The dogsare then lovingly cared for at the rescue site and in foster homes where they are evaluated for behavior problems andfor their ability to get along with other dogs, other pets, members of both sexes and with children of different ages. These evaluations are crucial to helping each dog find his or her "forever" home where they will be well cared forand truly loved for the remainder of their lives. Experienced volunteers help to "match" each dog and adopter forpersonality, compatibility and lifestyle since it is truly our goal to make the adopter the dog's owner for the rest of his life.

Results: We have been doing this for three years now and have saved 100's of dogs from death, abuse and neglect and placed them with loving, permanent families.
