Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Congratulations! You've found the bio for the world's friendliest and snuggliest dog ever! Harvest was rescued in July 2023 from a cruelty case in a "home" of 20+ dogs and her own 3-week old puppies, since weaning them off when they were ready, Harvest has been living her best life and has not looked back!
Harvest is a mostly black pittie with white paws, white tipped tail and a blaze of white on her chest and face along with some freckles and beautiful golden brown eyes. Harvest is an independent pup who mostly ignores other dogs when off leash in dog friendly areas. Harvest is very non-reactive and enjoys focusing on her tennis ball. On leash, she is more dog selective and will vocalize her displeasure quickly, so it's important to know her boundaries. Harvest will make her opinions known and get bossy with younger dogs.
Harvest is a medium energy pup. She loves to walk and play! She's very athletic and would do well with an active owner. Loves sniff walks and squirrel hunting. Absolutely loves the beach or a dog friendly area where she can be off leash playing keep away and fetch. She is also a big cuddle bug and will give you the warmest hug you've ever had, accompanied by thousands of kisses.
Harvest is just a really good girl. She is a very happy-go-lucky pup who rolls with whatever comes her way. Harvest is one of the most affectionate, friendly, funny, listens, and is very cued in on her handler. Harvest is just eager to please. She is smart and will settle quickly if attempts at play are not reciprocated. You really just have to meet her and you will fall in love. Don't waste any time, every second you're not with Harvest is a moment you could be having the best hug you've ever had.

More about this rescue
Players for Pits is a 501c3, non profit rescue that connects professional athletes to the community in order to come together to take a stand against the abuse and neglect of animals. PFP serves the western suburbs of Chicago and is a foster based rescue, so the dogs in our care are in foster homes learning the basics of being a well balanced dog versus being in cages at loud boarding facilities.
The athletes involved in our rescue actively support the rescue efforts and help by spreading the word of dogs in need. It is the mission of Players for Pits to educate dog owners about proper pet care - both physical and mental - so that the dogs in our care can be happy, well balanced members of society. It is our goal to rescue dogs from high kill shelters and place them into loving homes in the suburbs. At Players for Pits we stand up for pit bulls, who's character is routinely tarnished and often misrepresented. We recognize the pit bull for what it is: a DOG. And any dog with the right care and owners can be a wonderful pet. While we are an advocate for pit bulls, we do not discriminate based on breed and will take in other breeds if they need you help. Players for Pits is also very active in the community and we co-host clinics to help struggling families maintain their pets health, we train pit bull type dogs to become therapy dogs for children with abusive backgrounds, and we try to involve the community in our goal to reduce pet abandonment.
