Description:
Handsome Harrison was found wandering the streets and initially was brought to a shelter. He is now with loving foster parents who are teaching him what it means to be loved and in a peaceful, safe home. Harrison had some anxiety when his fosters brought him home, but after only a few weeks he’s really settled down. However, they don’t want to upset his progress so are moving slowly with new experiences and formal training. They are now starting to see his true personality revealed, and he is wonderful!
Harrison loves to snuggle. He didn’t know what toys were, but now he is gleeful when he plays with them. At first, he was very selective about what he would eat, but now he happily eats whatever is offered to him. Harrison is house-trained, and it is amazing that he learned that so quickly given his time on the streets. He’s made all of this progress in just a couple of weeks. Harrison will need a fenced-in yard.
Notice that what he’s showing is a joyful, smart collie who is learning that he is safe and loved. The more Harrison settles into his new life, the more of his likes and personality will be revealed to his fosters who will share that information with us.
