Meet Harry!
Harry is a sweet, playful, full-grown boy, weighing in at a lean 50 pound of pure muscle. He is fantastic with all dogs, any size, age, breed, sex, and is wonderful with kids and has had exposure to babies. He is good around cats but has never been unsupervised with them, preferring to stay clear.
Harry is not an alpha, but more of a follower. He is also not a barker (unless he’s actively involved in group play time). Harry is always trying to get other dogs to play with him and he loves a good game of chase and tag with his friends. Harry LOVES playing tug of war with humans or dogs, as well as chasing a tossed ball. Bringing it back, however, is a work in progress.
Harry enjoys car rides and is super happy to see a leash. He can be a bit strong on the leash, but with a little work, he will be great. Harry has no leash reactivity when he sees other dogs while on a walk.
He is house, potty, and crate trained. He is not a digger. When his human leaves the house, Harry is not an anxious dog. He feels safe in his crate and tends to just relax and nap.
Harry has some insecurities and can display an Eeyore look with a hunched posture around doorways, brooms, and some people. He also does not like angry voices, which can make him cower. He seems to always be on the lookout, but is never reactive, aggressive, or barky. Because of his passive nature, he will always be a flight vs fight kind of dude. Harry wants no problems.
If the door is open to the backyard, you will find Harry outside, where he will play with toys and soak up the sun, even if other dogs and people are inside. He has not shown resource guarding, but when he has a toy, he won’t let the other dogs have it until he walks away from it.
Harry would be happy as an only dog but happier with other dog friends. The most important thing for Harry would be to find a loving human who is not a yeller and who is active and would enjoy exercising with him. He is a great running, hiking, and walking partner. A yard is not a must, but having a place to toss a ball or squeaky toy would be ideal.
If you are interested in this handsome dude, please fill out an online application at www.arwob.org. Don't wait! Harry really wants to meet you!
