About Harper Happy

Harper Happy is a delightful young Cattle Dog mix, currently out of state but set to travel to New England soon at no extra cost. This spirited girl was found in North Carolina, abandoned in a common dumping area—certainly not where someone as joyful as her belongs. Since her rescue, she has been warming up and is eager to find her forever family. Harper has a vivacious personality that lights up any room. She's playful and enjoys the company of other young dogs, relishing in every moment of fun. Having lived with cats, she hopes to meet children who share her enthusiasm for life! Ideal for an active household, Harper would make a fantastic hiking or running partner. She's smart and willing to learn, with the potential to master various commands and tricks as she is trained. While she is crate-trained, Harper gets a little excitable on the leash, so some patience with her house training will go a long way. This affectionate pup is ready to bring joy into your home. Are you up for the adventure?
