Meet harvey

Harvey resembles a ripe peach. He is sweet, fuzzy, orange, and sort of round. He is a great companion: quiet, charming, and handsome. He has one wonky ear that points sideways, while the other points up.

Harvey is an excellent car buddy, settling himself down quietly to watch the world go by. He is happy to snooze on a dog bed while his human works, watches TV, or sleeps. During meals, he stands quietly, not begging but just hoping for a lucky piece of chicken to fall. He would probably benefit from losing a couple of pounds, so if you're looking for a diet buddy, he's a solid pick.

Harvey gets along with other dogs. He is curious about cats but not aggressive. He may have the mistaken impression that they could be playmates, but the cats in his foster home may have disabused him of that notion by now.

Harvey likes receiving pets and scratches and will respond with gentle kisses. He is potty pad trained and accepting of wearing belly bands when needed. He is good about going potty when taken outside. If his human is home a lot and paying attention, he likely wouldn't need the potty pads much. He enjoys slow walks or sniffaris around the backyard (except in the rain).

Harvey has an enlarged heart and a heart murmur which will require ongoing medication and periodic vet visits. He has a bit of a related cough, for which he also takes a medication, which seems to help.

Harvey has cataracts that render him essentially blind. He does not let that stop him from getting around. He wanders confidently around the house and in the yard. He is very good about following a voice to get around and also enjoys exploring on his own. He can go up a small number of stairs, but would prefer to have help going down. He does not love being picked up but will tolerate it for reasonable periods of time if it helps him get where he needs to go.

Harvey is a delight to have around. If you're looking for a quiet, orange shadow, come meet him soon!

Harvey is approx 9 years old and 13 lbs.
fostered in Falls Church, VA
