About Harvey

Meet Harvey, your future best friend! He’s a 3-year-old Australian Cattle Dog mix who weighs around 33 lbs. Harvey is looking for a loving home where he can thrive alongside a confident canine buddy. He’s a bit cautious at first and prefers a supportive environment where he can grow more comfortable over time. This sweet boy is potty trained and walks well on a leash, though he’s still perfecting his crate training. While he might share his opinions about being crated, he’s learning that it can also be a safe space. Harvey does great with older kids and is dog-friendly, but he’d prefer a home without cats. A fenced yard would be a fantastic bonus, but it’s not a requirement. To truly bond with Harvey, you’ll need patience and understanding. Once he feels secure, he transforms into an affectionate companion who loves to snuggle and be close to you. Join us at the Columbia Heights Truck or Treat Adoption Event at Huset Park on Saturday, 10/24 from 1pm - 4pm to meet this charming boy!
