Dog of the Week: Harper

Julia D Dog of the Week

Hi, my name is Harper. I want to warn you, if you meet me, you will fall in love with me! I am a five-year-old silver lab and I weigh 75 lbs. I love to play fetch and tug of war, love to snuggle, and will be your lap dog if you will let me! I have only been in my foster home for a short while, but I am healthy and ready to find my loving forever home. I am a little scared when I first meet new people, but in a very short time I will warm up to you and not leave your side. I love all people and especially boys, guess that must be because I am a girl? Because of my shyness, I would prefer that if there are young people in my home that they be over 16.

I love my people so much that I can be a bit protective, so a fully physically-fenced yard is a must for me. I like to go for rides, like to play with other dogs who are close to my size, but mostly I love people. I like to play with toys and chew on bones but I am very smart and don’t chew on anything else. I also know commands like sit, stay, lay and am so smart that I learn new things really quickly! (I don’t mind bragging because I know I’m that awesome!). I will bark to let you know when I need to go outside and I know not to go in the house.

Harper’s adoption fee is $250 which includes spay surgery, being up to date on vaccinations, a microchip, and a free obedience class. If you’re interested in Harper, please complete an application HERE or email adoptions@adopthope.org.
