Meet Harvey, a handsome black and white Border Collie mix with a calm and gentle demeanor. Harvey is a quiet, independent soul who enjoys his alone time but also gets along well and thrives with other dogs. He is house-trained and has made great strides in his foster home, where he's been working on building his confidence.
Harvey has recently started enjoying twice-daily walks and is getting better at navigating the world around him. He's still a bit uneasy on walks, so his foster parent crosses the street when needed, but he's improving every day. Harvey has a unique way of expressing himself-he'll lie down when it's time to hook up his leash and even lies down when people pass by, showing his calm nature.
Although Harvey is still learning to trust, his tail is always wagging, and he greets visitors with happiness, often giving a gentle nudge from behind. He loves spending time in the kiddie pool and has recently started playing with toys, showing his playful side. Harvey prefers to eat outside and is still working on taking treats from humans' hands, but he's making progress.
After walks, Harvey enjoys a little affection while on the leash, though he's still a bit apprehensive. He's learning that being petted is a good thing, and he'll even bump his foster parent with his nose as a sign of trust. Harvey feels most secure in his bed in the bedroom, where he sleeps peacefully.
While he's still working on avoiding chewing things he shouldn't, Harvey is improving every day. He's not a fan of loud noises close by, but he did well with fireworks when indoors.
Harvey is looking for a patient and loving home where he can continue to grow and thrive. With time and understanding, he's sure to become a loyal and loving companion.
For more information, email info@ahconnects.org or call us at 847-697-2880 x: 0, and the staff will be happy to help you.
Our dogs and puppies go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (7 months and over), and up to date on core vaccines, heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives. Their adoption also includes a free-vet exam at one of our participating veterinarians.
