Meet Harlequinn
Harlequinn Needs a Foster or Adopter by Saturday, 12/6/25 to Secure Her Ride to Wisconsin
Harlequinn is currently in Arkansas and must have a foster or adopter lined up by Saturday, December 6, 2025 to secure her spot on the transport truck to Cedarburg, WI with Mutt Life Dog Rescue. Without a home commitment, she won’t be able to make the trip.
Harlequinn’s story is one of second chances and quiet resilience. Pulled from a kill shelter at just 8 months old, this now around 2.5 -year-old mixed-breed sweetheart has spent most of her life in foster care—simply waiting for someone to notice her. After completing heartworm treatment about a year ago, she has patiently stayed in foster homes in Arkansas ever since.
Despite everything, Harlequinn is sweet as pie. She’s affectionate, gentle, and happiest when she has her “emotional support baby” (her favorite toy) close by. She’s dog friendly, cat friendly, and people friendly—an easy fit for many households.
House trained and crate trained, Harlequinn loves snuggles, soft beds, and being near her people. Her calm, loving nature makes her a comforting companion ready to finally settle into a home of her own.
Age: 2.5–3 years
Gender: Female (spayed)
Weight: 60 lbs
Breed: GSD/Lab Mix (best guess)
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Potty Trained: Yes
Crate Trained: Yes
Leash Manners: Good
Good with Dogs: Yes
Good with Cats: Yes
Good with Kids: Yes (has been around a 10 yo and was great)
Harlequinn has already shown so much courage and heart. She deserves a safe, loving home and a chance to finally rest easy. Could that home be yours?
If you can foster or adopt Harlequinn, please apply today!

2.)Application Decision: approved applicants will be notified via phone call and email.
3.)Foster-to-Adopt Trial Period: after approval, you have the opportunity to do a meet and greet and bring your dog home! You get a 5 day foster-to-adopt (FTA) period to make sure its the right fit.
4.) Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.
5.) Home Visit: After the adoption process we conduct a home visit either in person or via zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.
6.) Neuter/spay for puppies: for dogs who are not fixed at the time of adoption, we will reimburse for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. The procedure MUST be done at HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, we will reimburse $150 once we receive proof of the procedure. We recommend spay/neuter around 6 months old.
**Note: Adoptions are not considered final until the dog is neutered/spayed if applicable**
