About Harley B
Status: Adopted! Species: Dog Rescue ID: 16-0110 Current Age: 9 Years (best estimate)

Harley is a 10 month old Border Collie. He came into rescue with his sister Lucy. Harley is a working border collie through and through. He needs a job! Harley is constantly busy... He needs an owner who will channel his energy and be committed to his training. He would enjoy agility, obedience and nosework. He could also be trained for and enjoy herding. This boy is sweet, but he needs to be engaged in an activity that not only exercises his body but his mind too!

Harley is learning his name, learning to take treats nicely and learning to walk on a leash.

He is friendly with dogs, but because he is easily sent into "hyper-drive" a slow introduction on a walk and not too many dogs at once is recommended. Harley has not been tested with cats, but he did not seem to have any prey drive. Older kids should be fine, but they would need to be calm around him.

Harley is a cuddle-bug, a lover, and a leaner. He wants to be held close and when he focuses on a person he nearly glues himself to his handler before bolting off to sniff the next best thing. Honestly... this dog should have a job like search and rescue or working on a farm. Harley can be a great dog - but he needs an experienced owner who likes a challenge. That said, for an active person he will make an awesome companion.

Will you be Harley's best bud?
