About Harper

Meet Harper! This 6-week-old, 6-pound pittie mix was found as a stray but is now safe and ready for her forever home. She’s available for pre-adoption, and honestly, Harper is kind of a dream puppy. Harper sleeps through the night and has mostly potty trained herself. She’s sweet, cuddly, and undeniably adorable. However, watch out—she’s a little land piranha! Those sharp puppy teeth have a tendency to nibble on fingers, toes, and ankles. Harper did arrive with puppy pyoderma, but after some antibiotics and medicated baths, she's healing beautifully and just waiting for her fur to fully grow back. This little girl is smart and loving and is doing an impressive job for her age. Being only 6 pounds now means she has plenty of growing left to do, and since she was found as a stray, her adult size is still a guess. Harper is eager to find a family prepared for cuddles, training sessions, a little chaos, and possibly a few Band-Aids! Available for pre-adoption now! Click apply to start the adoption process.
