• “Hi I'm Harper, mom's wild child! I sure do love my brother and mom. It takes me a bit to warm up to others as I'm timid and avoid eye contact. I have a few dog friends but get very annoyed at small dogs and want to hunt them. Apparently Weimariners were of blood hound decent. I love cuddling, exploring, I'm gentle with food, and do a good job keeping squirrels and opossums off my fence at home. I can't want to have the space and freedom to run. Mom will probably cry with joy when she sees me doing that.“

  — Tracy L.

Harper and her sister, Hazel, love wrestling and chasing each other anytime they are in a space that allows them to zoom around.“

  — Kalie B.
