    Hi, I'm Harley, a gentle little soul looking for a chill home, and a family to love me! I am timid, but I'm gaining confidence in my foster home. I have settled into their home, and I like hanging out with them - maybe because, as seniors, they know how to “chill.” If my forever home contains another dog, that would be great – I love when my current fosters' granddog comes to visit, and I learn a lot of good habits while he is here. I have learned that a leash means I get to go outside, and I love that! Walking around my neighborhood is one of my favorite things to do, and I like long walks. I can walk at a pretty good clip, but also like to stop and smell the roses along the way, too. I love to eat, cuddle next to you on the couch for hours, explore new surroundings, and sleep. I am a champion sleeper! When I go to bed at night, in my kennel, I sleep like a log. I may lack teeth, but I eat my kibble with no problem. I'm not into toys or treats, but my foster dad is determined that I get a treat every time I “do my stuff” outside, and I'm beginning to like that. My foster parents say I am the sweetest dog they have ever known, and, to be honest, I think I am, too! I know I'm a bit timid, but I really do want to get to know you, and I love cuddles and pets - it just takes a bit of coaxing. I like to keep my kennel clean, so they take me outside right away in the morning, and then again, an hour or two after I eat. I am making huge strides in the potty training department, and it helps that I prefer a clean, dry kennel. When not on the couch with my foster dad, I choose my kennel for naps. If there was a gold medal at napping, it would be awarded to me! I was pretty shaggy when I arrived, but I did great at my first grooming appointment. My groomer gave me a shorter "do" because of all the matted hair I had, but I'm pretty cute when fluffy, too! I know I'm a handsome fellow, and don't mind when my foster dad spruces me up a bit with a nice, gentle brushing. With love and gentleness, I will settle nicely into my forever home, as I have in my foster home. *Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders.  Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a  particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit.  Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.     ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there***
