About Harlee - OS
Meet Harlee, a tiny diva with a huge personality and enough charm to keep everyone wrapped around her little paw. If you’ve ever wished for a best friend who wants to be involved in absolutely everything you do, Harlee is your girl. Harlee truly believes she is one of the people. Whether she’s curled up beside you on the couch, supervising snack time in hopes of earning a tiny taste, or tagging along on an adventure with her favorite humans, she is happiest simply being included. She rides beautifully in the car and lights up anytime she realizes she gets to go somewhere with you. This happy girl also enjoys spending time with her canine friends and loves joining the pack for backyard fun and playful adventures. She would do wonderfully in a home with another friendly dog who can match her enthusiasm and help her continue building confidence. Harlee is bright, expressive, and wonderfully entertaining. She loves toys, treats, and being the center of attention. After grooming, she gets especially playful and silly, often chasing her tail and showing off her adorable personality. She also takes her “neighborhood watch” duties very seriously and is always ready to let you know when she hears something interesting happening around the house. While Harlee enjoys exploring safely in a fenced yard, she is also learning that walks can be fun too — especially when treats are involved. She is very food motivated and happily cooperates when rewarded with one of her favorite snacks. Harlee does best on a consistent routine and understands the word “outside,” quickly heading out when it’s potty time. Like many sensitive little dogs, she can become anxious during storms or stressful situations, so having a calm environment and predictable schedule helps her feel secure. She has already discovered the comfort of having a cozy safe space to retreat to when she needs a little downtime. Harlee wants to be part of the family, included in daily life, and loved exactly as she is. In return, she will provide endless entertainment, loyal companionship, and plenty of laughs along the way.
Ideal Home
Harlee's ideal home will adore her for the hilarious, loving, opinionated little companion she is. She wants to be part of the family, included in daily life, and loved exactly as she is. A home with another friendly dog who can match her enthusiasm and help her continue building confidence would be wonderful.
Ongoing Health
Harlee does have luxating patellas, which are fairly common in small breed dogs. She handles things very well with daily supplements that help keep her comfortable and active. She appreciates gentle handling and a family committed to maintaining her routine and overall wellness. Due to her ongoing orthopedic needs, Harlee requires an adopter with a strong veterinary care history committed to maintaining her medical care and comfort for years to come.
