About Harley

Meet Harley, a charming four-month-old mixed-breed dog with the happiest personality. He’s got those adorable floppy ear tips that fold backward, perfectly complementing his chill demeanor for someone his age. With the classic German Shepherd intelligence and playfulness, Harley also knows when it’s time to settle down. After some exercise or playtime, he loves snuggling up beside you, bringing joy to any active, dog-savvy family. Currently thriving in a dedicated foster home, Harley is getting the one-on-one attention he craves while strengthening his training skills. He’s crate-trained and has even learned to relax on his mat, whether at home or outdoors at your favorite coffee spot. Training sessions are his favorite, and he’s eager to learn more, but he requires clear guidance to help him reach his potential. Harley is focusing on improving his leash manners. Excited to greet new friends, he can become a bit frustrated when on the leash if he spots someone or another dog. With a patient adopter keen to continue his training, he’ll flourish. Preferred in a home with sturdy children, Harley is ready to meet his new best friend. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
