Ideal Home/Adopter: Hi, my name is Harry (Harold). I would love to find my furever family and home. Could that be you? I'm looking for a person or family to love me, and I'll show you all the love in return. I don't really like to be left alone, so it would be great if my new family worked from home. I'm a really good boy during the work day and mostly just lay on my bed and sleep in the office while my foster mom works. I don't bark a lot, but when I do, I'm told it's kinda loud so an apartment might not be the best option for me. I don't need a fenced in yard, but I wouldn't mind one either so I could run around and play. After a quick walk or play time, I'm happy on a soft couch or curled up on my bed.
I've not met a dog that I don't like! My ideal family would have a confident fur sibling that I could play with, curl up with and learn to become a confident dog too! I also really love kids, but since I'm still young, I sometimes put my mouth on people, like I do my toys, so kids 8+ might be best. I've not been around cats, so not sure about them but I'm open to meeting one.

Likes: Toys, treats, snuggles, playmates (dogs or kids)... I love them all! Some of my favorite toys are squeaky ones, but I'll pull the fluff out of a soft one pretty quick. I also enjoy a game of tug with a rope, at least for a little while. And treats? I might be little, but I'll eat just about anything! I love a peanut butter Kong, any kind of chewy bone or tasty treat or even ice cubes! Walks are fun too, but I'm also happy taking a nice snooze.

Dislikes: I'm scared to get in a car but my foster mom is trying to show me that car rides can be fun. When I'm in the car though, I'm a very good boy and just lay on the back seat. I also don't like to be left alone, but I am taking some medicine to help me not be nervous. Because I don't like to be alone, I don't like to be in a crate. But I do pretty well in a gated area with my toys and a bed.

What makes this dog special:

I don't want to brag about myself, but who can resist my ears?! I mean, they're pretty cute. In addition to that, I'm a smart boy and eager to learn. I learned basic commands of sit and down in just a couple days, and I'm starting to learn shake. I'm dog, kid and people friendly. I'm still young and still have some puppy in me, so I could be an only dog but I would really love to have a fur sibling to play with and learn from. At night, I love to curl up in bed with my owner. I've been told I snore a little, but it's cute (like me). I walk great on a leash, and would be good for longer walks, or even a jog, when it's not so cold out. I must be a good boy because my foster mom says that to me a lot. Are you looking for a good boy with great ears? Because I'm ready for my furever home.
