    ๐Ÿ“ฃ๐ŸพFrom the streets to your couchโ€”Harlee Grace is ready to be yours๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ“ฃ

    ๐ŸŽ‚1 year old

    ๐Ÿ“ŒBrooks, KY

    Harlee Grace is a beautiful young German Shepherd with a gentle soul and a royal name to match. When she first arrives somewhere new, she can be a little shy and unsure of her surroundings, but once she realizes sheโ€™s safe, her sweet and affectionate personality really starts to shine.

    Harlee is a total velcro girl who loves being close to her person. Sheโ€™s happiest snuggled up next to you for a movie, resting her head on your chest at night, or sitting on the porch watching the world go by. She forms a strong bond with โ€œher personโ€ and just wants to feel safe, loved, and included.

    Because sheโ€™s still building confidence, Harlee may bark at new noises, strangers, or dogs she doesnโ€™t know yet, and sheโ€™ll need a family willing to give her a little patience and guidance while she settles in. Sheโ€™s very smart and eager to learn, and with reassurance she continues to blossom more every day.

    She enjoys walks, car rides (especially if thereโ€™s a pup cup involved), yogurt and peanut butter treats, pizza crust, and a good chew bone. Harlee is crate trained, learning her house manners, and does well when she has a safe space of her own.

    Harlee would do best in a home with a secure fenced yard and a family who wants a loyal companion by their side. She may do well with another calm dog if they are a good match, but most of all sheโ€™s looking for someone who will love her, be patient with her, and treat her like the princess she truly is.

    If youโ€™re looking for a loyal shadow, cuddle buddy, and best friend, Harlee Grace might just be your girl. ๐Ÿพโœจ

    Hi, I'm ๐™†๐™–๐™ฃ๐™š, a fun-loving, energetic pup who just happens to be ๐™™๐™š๐™–๐™›. I may not hear you, but I act like I do. ๐™„'๐™ข ๐™œ๐™ค๐™ค๐™™ ๐™ฌ๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ ๐™ฅ๐™š๐™ค๐™ฅ๐™ก๐™š, ๐™™๐™ค๐™œ๐™จ, ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™ ๐™š๐™ซ๐™š๐™ฃ ๐™˜๐™–๐™ฉ๐™จ.

Iโ€™ve got lots of energy and love going on walks, playing fetch, and spending time with my people. I also fully believe Iโ€™m a lap dogโ€ฆ and Iโ€™m determined to prove it. When itโ€™s time to relax, Iโ€™m happy hanging out in my crate on my comfy bed.

    Iโ€™m very food-motivated (duck jerky is my favorite!), which helps me learn quickly. Iโ€™m already picking up great habits and doing well with structure and positive reinforcement. I also do great with baths and nail trimsโ€”bonus!

    Iโ€™ll be honestโ€”Iโ€™ve been known to โ€œredecorateโ€ when I get bored ๐Ÿ˜… so Iโ€™d do best in an active home that keeps me engaged and continues my training journey.
