Story
I was found roaming the busy streets of Franklin County and taken to the county animal shelter to wait for my owners to come for me!! But sadly they never did and I really do not understand what I did wrong! I really try to be a good boy!!
When my stray time was up the shelter contacted Harlequin Haven and that very day I was picked up and brought to the rescue!! The rescue had a soft bed, tons of toys and dinner waiting for me!!! I have 2 new friends Pippa and Penelope and best of all I have lots of food and treats to eat!! Gaining the 20 pounds I need is going to be so easy!! Life is great!!!
If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, you will need to follow the adoption procedures on our website. (www.hhdane.org) The procedures are on the right hand menu. http://www.hhdane.org/hhdane/procedure.htm
I have also pasted them below for your convenience. Thank you for your interest in our dogs.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Our adoption area is Ohio and Extreme Northern Kentucky (Boone, Kenton, and Campbell counties) We do not adopt to any other areas. For exact area go to FAQ.
All of our rescue dogs are spayed and neutered prior to adoption. All shots including lyme & rabies, are given. They have been wormed, checked for heartworm, lyme disease & ehrlichia, and placed on heartworm preventative.
All dogs are kept for a minimum of one month for temperament evaluation and to be house trained. Registration papers are returned to the AKC as per their request and there are no exceptions.
We require a fenced yard of adequate size, to be determined on an individual basis. Fence must be at least 4 feet tall (48 inches) and must attach or surround with direct access to the building where the dog will be housed. Invisible and electric fences do NOT meet the requirements of a fenced yard. In some rare cases apartments and condos may be acceptable, to be determined on an individual basis. We do NOT place puppies or young Danes in apartments or condo’s. All pets in the home must be altered prior to applying to adopt. Adopter must be 21 years old. We do not accept checks or credit cards.
If you are in the process of installing a fence, PLEASE DO NOT submit application until the yard is securely fenced.
If you are in the process of purchasing your home or moving, PLEASE DO NOT submit your application until after you have moved and settled into your home.
We are located east of Cincinnati, outside the town of Hamersville.

2. A volunteer will call or e-mail to let you know if we have a dog that would work in your home at this time. If we have a dog that would work in your home then an appointment will be set to come and view the dogs. We are open Saturdays by appointment ONLY.
3. With an appointment, you may come to view up to 3 dogs. All family members and dogs living in the home are required to come for this visit. This better enables us to help you find the perfect dog for you home and family. If you find a dog you wish to adopt, there is a 1 week waiting period which will allow you time to think about what you are doing prior to adopting.
