Meet Harv, an approximately 4 month old 20-ish pound Shepherd mix. Harv hitched a ride on the freedom van recently and has been getting used to a taste of the good life while he awaits his forever home. His soulful eyes show his appreciation for getting out of the shelter environment. Harv is very respectful with both adults and children. He is learning how to socialize with animals of all kinds. He loves playing with the resident dog, but doesn’t require a home with another furry companion. Presently, he is curious about the resident cats and will remain somewhat calm when they aren’t moving! When they are in motion, he gets overstimulated, so a cat that is dog savvy or no cats would work! Harv is doing phenomenal on crate training, as well as potty training. He sleeps thru the night without a peep. His long legs make him a zoomie champion and his big ears make him the perfect bird watching candidate. Harv aims to please and he is treat motivated which makes training a smidge easier. He is incredibly smart, so we are working on sit and down. In addition to wanting to be part of the family, Harv does a great job entertaining himself or playing brain games. If you’re ready for all things puppy, Harv is your guy.
