Harvest -Fee Sponsored + Free Training

Current Location: Strasburg, VA <br/>Estimated date of birth: 7/3/25 <br/><br/>Harvest is a gentle soul who wants connection but does not yet trust the process. She will come to her foster mom readily for petting but will be wary when meeting new people. Eventually she will come to you for chin and face scratches, which feels like a big win for her, and she will tolerate calm petting along her sides and back once she feels settled. She moves confidently between the kennel and the fenced yard and does her pottying outside like a champ. She also enjoys playing with her littermates and clearly draws comfort from their presence.<br/><br/>That said, Harvest is still fearful of close human approach. If you walk directly toward her, she will circle away inside the pen. Being picked up scares her and she may squeal and potentially snap defensively if forced. For safety, gloves are required for any necessary handling such as crating for vet visits. She is not leash trained yet and will need time before that step is introduced.<br/><br/>Harvest requires a fully fenced yard and a calm, patient home. A confident resident dog would help her tremendously. She is a flight risk and needs adopters who understand that progress comes through consistency and calm presence, not force. Harvest is not ready for chaos, but she is ready for the right person.
