Story
Meet Harley - a calm companion with a playful streak and a bedtime song!
Harley is an approximately 2-year-old, 70 pound male northern mix from Moose Factory who brings a lovely balance of easygoing company and occasional zoomies. At home, he's happy stretching out on the floor, but when his canine buddy is ready to play, he loves a good game of chase around the yard.
This friendly boy enjoys men and women alike. He can be a little shy at first, but quickly warms up to people and is fast to welcome other pets. He gets along well with other dogs and has been friendly with other animals, though squirrels sometimes catch his attention! Thankfully, he's easily redirected. Harley has not yet been tested with children.
Harley has some wonderful everyday manners: he's house trained, walks beautifully on leash without pulling, and handles passing bikes and skateboards well. Thunder doesn't seem to bother him, either. He sometimes jumps up when excited and is working on keeping all four paws on the ground.
A great eater, Harley willingly heads into his crate for meals and treats. He takes treats gently, even with another dog nearby, and his foster has seen no resource guarding. Like many opportunistic snack enthusiasts, he'll occasionally investigate food left on the counter, so keeping tempting goodies out of reach is wise!
Harley is largely crate trained and sleeps in his crate in the family room. His bedtime routine includes a 10-15-minute husky-style serenade before he settles, with an occasional overnight whimper and a morning wake-up call around 7. Outside those musical moments, excessive barking hasn't been a concern.
He has managed short periods alone uncrated, but his creative side means freedom is best introduced gradually as he learns his new home's routines.
Looking for a relaxed walking buddy, a playful canine friend, and a little northern personality? Harley could be your perfect match.
