Meet harvey
Meet Harvey—a big, handsome underdog looking for his perfect match. At nearly 85 lbs, he’s likely a Staffy-Corso mix with a heart as big as his size. He’s the kind of dog who challenges you but also gives you his whole heart and helps you grow—your “soul dog” if you’re the right person.
Harvey thrives with a confident leader—someone who loves big dogs and enjoys maintaining a behavioral training plan, making him feel safe. He’s fantastic on a leash, great with other dogs (though more of a chill co-exister than a player), and makes you feel 100% confident on walks. While he needs patience with new people and places, once he trusts you, he’s all in and according to his foster - it's the best kind of in. He's incredibly loyal, enjoys earned affection, and loves to connect on a deep level with his human.

🧡 great walking companion
🧡 waits at doors and thresholds
🧡 waits for permission to eat his food
🧡 knows how to relax on his bed vs the sofa

🧡 loves to play fetch and chase a flirt pole with the release command

🐾 no kids or cats
