Harlem Bernese Mountain Dog Mix Bedford Hills, NY

Harlem is a very handsome 3 year old boy. We think this large 80 lb boy is a Bernese Mountain Dog Mix; he certainly has the paws to prove it! Harlem was an emaciated guy trying to survive on the streets in South Carolina, and when we brought him here to the safety of a foster home he settled into a relaxing home life beautifully! He is now a healthy weight and a happy guy; he loves following his people and his canine brother around, happy to hang out with his people or his fellow dogs all day, inside the house or out. Since he has a bit of a prey drive, he needs a home with NO CATS.

Now that he has had a bit of time to adjust to family life in his wonderful foster home, he is even learning to play! ( see video). Harlem is most definitely a mellow fellow. If you are looking for a buddy… a best friend to just chill and enjoy the calm, relaxing moments in life then Harlem is your guy.

Thank you so much for your interest in adopting a dog from A New Chance Animal Rescue (www.anewchancear.org). We are an all volunteer group, so after submitting your application, if you don't hear back from us within a few days, please e-mail us at adoption@anewchancear.org. Be sure to read about the adoption process (http://www.anewchancear.org/adoption_process.php) on our website, so you'll know what to expect and fill out all fields on the adoption application (http://www.anewchancear.org/adoption_application.html)or we won't be able to process it.

As you can imagine, we are only able to save as many dogs as we have foster homes (http://www.anewchancear.org/faq.php) and resources for. We do not have a shelter facility and we provide medical care including vaccinations, testing, deworming, spaying/neutering, and microchipping before transporting our dogs. Then, we provide whatever follow up care is necessary while they are in foster care. All of this is very expensive and the number of lives we can save is entirely dependent upon donations from people like you. We do not receive funding from private foundations or government sources, so if you can find room in your heart to help us, with any amount, we are truly grateful (http://www.anewchancear.org/donate.php). It is only through your kindness and that of supporters like you that we are "changing lives...one tail at a time" by providing our dogs with "A New Chance." (www.anewchancear.org)

Thanks so much.
