About Harper

Harper is a Boxer/Shar-Pei mix with a short brown coat who came to the rescue after wandering through a rural neighborhood. She’s a medium-sized girl, weighing around 50 pounds, and was born at the end of 2023. Harper greets everyone with her trademark wiggle and plenty of enthusiasm—there’s no need for a warm-up period with her; she’s affectionate right from the start. She gets along well with other dogs and would be happiest with an active family looking for a hiking companion or a dog equally excited to explore. She has not been cat-tested, so she’ll need a feline-free home. Children eight and older are recommended, simply because she hasn’t been around those younger. Harper is healthy, up to date on her vaccinations, and is already spayed and microchipped. She’s reliably house trained, good on a leash, travels well in the car, and thrives when she’s included in outings and daily adventures. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
