About Harper

Meet Harper, a lovable male Feist mix. At 3 years old and weighing about 25 lbs, he radiates sweetness and warmth. Harper is friendly with both dogs and cats, making him a great addition to many households. While he’s a bit shy on basic manners, this is simply because he hasn’t had formal training yet. He’s not overly energetic, and once he gets settled, he enjoys snuggling up with his favorite humans. Harper can be a bit of a velcro dog; if he can see you, he may cry in his crate. He seeks companionship and would thrive in a home where he can be close to his people. Harper is neutered, vaccinated, and ready for a family to call his own.
