Story
Meet Harley, the happy black dog everyone keeps overlooking.
Harley is an almost 6-year-old Boxer/Pit mix who is basically a Golden Retriever in a Boxer/Pit body. She is happy, wiggly, affectionate, and full of love. She follows her people around, wants to be included in daily life, and has a tail that always seems to be moving.
Harley has had no adoption interest, and we can’t help but wonder if people are scrolling past because they see “Boxer/Pit mix” or because she is a mostly black dog. But Harley is not a stereotype. She is not a label. She is a sweet, goofy, loyal love bug who just wants someone to give her a chance.
Harley loves being with her humans. She enjoys playtime, walks, attention, and then lounging on a couch, dog bed, or even a human bed if you let her. She is the kind of dog who makes a house feel warmer because she simply wants to be near you.
She can get excited when greeting people and may jump a little at first, but she listens well and wants to do the right thing. Harley knows her basic commands and is a proud PetSmart puppy training graduate. She is smart, eager to please, and a fast learner — she just needs someone to guide her and show her what is expected.
Harley also takes treats gently. Sometimes she will sniff first and then carefully take the treat from your fingers, which is such a sweet little part of who she is.
Harley is looking for someone willing to see past breed bias, black dog bias, and first impressions. Take a chance on her. We truly believe the person who meets Harley will either be so glad they did — or wonder why it took them so long.
