COURTESY POST: Harley the husky is looking for a forever home. Contact his owners at patrushka63@yahoo.com to meet him.
BIO FROM OWNERS:
Harley is friendly and playful, silly and a little goofy. He is neutered and up-to-date on vaccinations. He is just over 1 year old. He loves to play with people. He loves to chew bones, twigs and just about anything to stay occupied. He loves attention and affection. He thinks that he is still little and will jump in your lap and want to snuggle. When you rub his belly, he smiles and gives you a "toothy grin." He never growls or gets angry. He is always happy. Harley lives with another dog and a cat and he plays with them well. He also loves kids and is very gentle. Harley is very curious and always wants to know what you are eating. He loves to be played with and loves going for walks. He is very active and needs people who will give him lots of attention and exercise. He is a very playful dog. Definitely not quiet or inactive. If you're interested in making Harley part of your family, contact his owners at patrushka63@yahoo.com.
NOTE ABOUT BREED LABELING: Visual breed identification of dogs is unreliable and usually inaccurate. So, for most of our adoptable dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog
as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.
Why is labeling a dog such a big deal? A label will stick with a dog for the rest of its life. A label can mean discrimination, losing its home or even death. Labels are a problem for the dogs when we, as the local experts on animals, allow adopters, politicians and community members to think that the label we assign can predict who that dog is or will be.
Examples:
Adoption Process: Complete the application at
www.pawsforliferescue.org. We then arrange a location, date and time for you to meet some pets. If the meeting goes well and everyone is happy, you begin the mandatory, minimum two-week adjustment period with the pet as part of your family. You will pay the non-refundable adoption fee at the start of the two-week adjustment period. This pending period allows your new dog or cat time to adjust to their new home, new people, new routine, etc., and for you to decide if it's a match and the right pet for you. At the end of two weeks (some people extend the adjustment time as needed and that's fine too), if everyone is happy, then we finalize the adoption. Feel free to email if you have any questions.
