About Harley

Meet Harley, a gentle giant weighing in at 80 pounds. Despite his size, he’s a sweet and goofy love bug who prefers the comforts of home over long hikes or extreme adventures. You’ll often find him relaxing on his cozy bed, content to join you for a short stroll but happiest right by your side. Rescued as a stray in February 2025, Harley came to us underweight and timid, but he has grown into a resilient companion. Patience is his virtue, especially with his hyper foster brother; he calmly brushes off any overzealous antics and looks to his human for reassurance. Harley needs a caring home where he can build confidence, so a patient person is ideal. He’s well-mannered and knows commands like "sit," "down," and "shake." He’s comfortable with having his paws and toes handled, and he'll thrive best in a secure, fenced yard that allows him to explore safely. Harley does not get along with cats but is friendly with other dogs. If you’re seeking a devoted friend to add joy to your life, Harley is eager to meet you! Ready to meet your new best friend?
