We haven't seen them with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: DC area foster home Harper is Looking For: Harper is ready to start her next chapter. With her soulful eyes and gentle presence, she has a quiet charm that draws you in and makes you want to learn more about her. Harper is at that wonderful stage in life where she’s past the puppy chaos but still has plenty of love and companionship to give. Whether it’s joining you for a walk, lounging nearby, or simply being your steady sidekick, Harper is ready to find a place to call her own. What My Foster Says About Me: Harper is a fun-loving, incredibly sweet girl who thrives on affection—she’s happiest curled up next to you soaking up cuddles and ear scratches. Social and eager to be part of the family, she loves meeting new people and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Though she’s on the smaller side for a Rottie, she has the confident, easygoing spirit typical of her Rottweiler roots. She’s a low-maintenance companion with great manners. Harper rarely barks, walks beautifully on a leash, and settles easily in her crate for both overnight and daytime routines. She enjoys playtime with squeaky toys and may show a little playful stubbornness, but she’s responsive and builds trust quickly. Harper would do well as either a solo dog or with canine companions—she’s friendly, shares space and resources, and even enjoys grooming her dog friends. She’s also shown gentle curiosity toward other animals. She’s currently working on gaining weight after arriving underweight and is happily motivated by food and treats. While she may have a bit of stiffness in her rear legs, she gets around well and has handled stairs and walks (up to 2 miles!) with ease A true couch companion at heart, Harper would love a home where she can relax by your side and be included in daily life. She’s still polishing her potty routine but is making steady progress with consistency. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate dog with a gentle nature and a playful streak, Harper might just be your perfect match. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.
