Harris was surrendered to a shelter in northern AZ at a very young age. He was covered, head to toe, in ticks and was severely emaciated. Luckily for him, the caring folks at this shelter got him to the vet and into a loving foster home where he spent the next 3 months recovering and gaining strength. By the time our rescue welcomed Harris, he was healthy, happy and ready to start his new life!

Harris's breed is a true mystery. Your guess is as a good as ours. He has small ears, kind of like a sharpei. His coat is short and soft, kind of like a chihuahua. He's about the size of a whippet, that great medium size, and he could have many other breed mixes in his DNA. He's smart, playful and loving - like so many wonderful breeds out there. He loves to cuddle with other dogs and his people and, once again, he's a boy we couldn't imagine placing in a home with no other dogs. He spends most of his time romping or cuddled up to his furry foster siblings, and he loves a good human cuddle session too.

Harris has been a pleasure to be around. He is respectful, loves to learn new tricks (he sits and gives high fives for his meals), and is friendly and welcoming with all new visitors, humans and dogs alike. Harris is also crate and house trained in his foster home.
