About Available for Adoption Harlie

Harlie is a sweet, shy puppy who takes time to warm up to new people and environments. This affectionate girl thrives on social connections, especially with other dogs, and a home with at least one friendly canine companion will help her feel secure. Though she tends to bond more quickly with women, she's becoming more comfortable with men too. Harlie is playful and mischievous, typical of a setter puppy, and needs plenty of exercise each day. She enjoys running around in a fenced yard, and while she has a good recall and knows a few commands, she still has room to learn and grow. Crate training has been going well, but she enjoys having toys available to keep her engaged. She has been spayed, microchipped, and is up to date on vaccinations. Her health is good, although she will need annual testing for Leishmaniasis due to her origins. Harlie needs a patient family willing to allow her time to adjust, particularly given her fearful nature with new people. An in-person meet and greet will be essential for her adoption. If you're ready to provide a loving and understanding home for Harlie, she could be the perfect addition to your family. Your new best friend is just one click away.
