HARPER
HARPER is here! A new little girl is at WFTRM Chicago. And I say little cause she is itty bitty. 16 pounds of pretty, petite princess. Beautiful coat and markings with her wee pricked ears and expressive eyes. Harper is 5 years old - a very busy girl - lonely for attention and affection - loves belly rubs and cuddles. Very sweet girl who gives kisses when prompted and when not as well. She loves her toys and playing, especially the latex honking ones like piggies and goosies and crinkles. She is darling to watch giving her new ones – her eyes light up like Christmas. Harper is friendly with other dogs, can play rough and want to win the tug o war game, so charming with everyone she meets. She loves to go in the car but seems to want to be in the front passenger seat with full view and staring at other cars we go past. The big fenced yard was a bit overwhelming for her at first, she would run out half way and bark and run back on the deck. It did not take her long to love it and has a ball out there running and playing. Harper had a home that was in my opinion, not suitable for a Wire Fox puppy. Her Breeder sold her to a man in his mid 80s. With Dementia. With no fenced yard. A leash tied out to the patio door handle where she would languish, as he would fall aslepp and forget about her. She would bark and bark as she was scared until the neighbors complained. Finally, his family is moving him to a safer place, and posted a free come get her today ad. Harper also had an incident as a puppy where she is lucky to be alive. She chewed an electrical cord, after calling the vet he instructed them to rush her to emergency. She recovered but a piece of the side of her tongue is carved out. It is all healed, it does not affect her eating or playing or smiling for the camera. She was not fond of me brushing her mouth area but the rest she liked. Harper had not been to a vet since 2021 so she needed everything. She has received a 3-year Rabies Vaccination, a 3 Year Distemper, a Bordatella, a full Heartworm 4dx panel, Fecal Sent out, on Revolution preventative, and a microchip. She is a healthy little girl who is excited to get the perfect home that would love a tiny terrier to treasure and pamper. I can pick her up and tuck her under one arm she is so little and feels like a stuffie. She is however a door bolter and just putting your hand on the handle zoom she is there. Same at the gate too and very speedy and wanting to zip out. I think she would do best with a fenced yard and where she would feel safe as her first 5 years probably haunted her. Harper is a dream and will make every Christmas Wish come true for that right family.
