Anyone want a Harley?

One of my friends that now lives in Phoenix AZ, is rehoming her dog. I am not happy about it. But apparently she feels she must. I do not want Harley to go back to the shelter. She is 10 mos old, housebroken, rarely barks. And probably and GSD/Lab/JRT mix. If anyone knows anyone who might be interested please PM me. We don't have much time. She will be back in OH on the 18th.

This is her email to me:
ANYBODY WANT A DOG FOR CHRISTMAS? HARLEY NEEDS
SOMEONE THAT CAN SPEND MORE TIME W/ HER OR SOMEONE
THAT PROVIDE HER W/ A BIG BACK YARD THAT SHE CAN RUN
FREELY IN. ME AND HARLEY HAVE BEEN HAVING CONFLICTING
DIFFERENCES AND SHE CAN NO LONGER STAY W/ ME. I WOULD
REALLY LIKE TO MAKE SURE SHE GOES TO A GOOD HOME, IF
NOT, I WILL PROBABLY END UP PUTTING HER IN THE
MARICOPA COUNTY ANIMAL SHELTER. SHE'S HOUSEBROKEN,
BUT I REALLY THINK SHE WOULD PREFER THE GREAT
OUTDOORS. SHE'S NOW ABOUT 10 MTHS OLD, SHE'S VERY
ENERGETIC AND PLAYFUL. SHE NEVER BARKS. I'D BE
WILLING TO FLY HER HOME W/ ME IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED
IN ADOPTING HER. I'VE PUT ALOT OF MONEY IN
HER,.....SHE'S SPAYED AND HER DEW-CLAWS (SP) ARE
REMOVED. I HAVE ALL HER SHOT RECORDS.
SO, ANY TAKERS? PLEASE!!!
HERE'S A PIC,.........JUST LOOK HOW CUTE SHE IS!!

zippy-cat is going to be a big help and post a pic of her for me!!:D
Thanks!!

Your thread title made me do a double take. I also post on a motorcycle racing bbs, and I had to check and make sure where I was :D

She is a cutie.

Bah, Imagestation is down right now so I can't see the pic. How big is she?

Hmmm, isn't anyone on PT looking for another dog to foster and/or adopt?

shais_mom,

OMG....That looks like Smokey's sister.My mouth dropped
open when I saw Harley's picture. Even "sits pretty" like my
Moki man.:D I don't have a big yard, but she doesn't look
like a big dog either.How much does she weigh? Does she
get along with cats?

"ME AND HARLEY HAVE BEEN HAVING CONFLICTING
DIFFERENCES AND SHE CAN NO LONGER STAY W/ ME"

Do you know what the "differences" were? Don't imagine it
was in a choice of draperies. LOL.

I only saw Harley in June and she was much smaller and alot more HYPER!! My friend said she seems to have calmed down. I don't know what the problems are, and I don't know if she gets along with cats. I am certain she has never been around them. She lives in an apartment in Phoenix. I think it is simply b/c she doesn't have the time or desire to work with her. I love her to death but when she moved out there I tried telling her several times to wait wait wait!! And this is coming from someone who would DIE without her critters.
She is coming home to Putnam County, Ottawa OH on the 18th. IF we need to do a transport to IN I can try my darndest to get the 19th off but I need to know asap. Or I could do it Sunday the 22nd. I would imagine she would do fine with the cats as long as Smokey keeps her in line (hypothetical :) ) and the cats have their claws. She got her thru the worst part, it took her forever to potty train her and now she seems to be housebroken.
I will email her.

shais_mom,

Gosh, I'd better not commit to this. I'm like you and once
I adopt an animal, they'd have to pry my cold dead fingers
loose to get it away from me.LOL. Honestly, she is a real
cutie and Smokey would LOVE to have a doggie to wrestle
with, BUT , at my age & stage of life (old as dirt & thinking
about retirement) I'd better stick with one dog & the seven
kitties I have now. I can't let my heart overrule my head on
this. Harley deserves the best in life & I pray she'll find her
forever home soon. Love & Hugs from Liz and Moki. :)

I can't see the pics right now, but if she looks like Moki she has to be adorable!!! I hope something works out!! If you need help with a transport in this area, please let me know!!!

I think I may have someone here in Tucson that is interested. I just emailed her the info and the pics. If she would like to adopt Harley I'll be willing to drive up to Phx and pick her up and bring her back to Tucson. Keep your fingers and paws crossed that she'll be interested in Harley.

Mike and I will take her if no one wants her. What's one more?? She'll be loved and well taken care of.

That's great to hear Mugsy!! Hopefully I'll hear back from my friend soon about Harley. I'll still keep trying here in Az. But it's good to know she'll have a home.

I can see the pic now...she is soo cute!!!
I know my cousin's wife wants a dog (they live in Phoenix) but my cousin isn't so sure. They are also expecting their first child this spring, so I'm not sure this is the right time for them to get their first puppy...but I'll send an email...

I haven't heard from Shais-mom, so it's not definite, but I hate it when dogs don't have homes when they deserve one.

Sorry!! Work calls!! :(
I don't get to check email at work.
I emailed my friend about why she was giving her up and I haven't heard anything yet. Like I said before, I honestly don't know.:(
Liz, no worries, didn't want you to be pressured, hope I didn't sound that way. If I pressure anyone, it should be myself, and I like you only want one dog and cat right now. :(
I imagine my friend would like to rehome her in AZ, but if not I am sure if noone else will take her, Mugsy, you will be contacted. I will send her your email address if you send it to me, don't believe I have it.
Laura, THANK you sooooo much for your inquiry!! If your friend is interested and you do drive to get her, I will be forever greatful!!! I wouldn't even begin to know how to repay you!!
I just want little Harley to go to a good home. She has been on my mind since I met her, I was afraid this would happen, I just don't think she took it seriously as she should. :( but that is the case soooooo often.
As soon as I hear from her I will let you know. I don't know when that will be. I have to work 930p-730a tomorrow night and with the time difference. Hopefully if she emails me I will post Fri am.
Thanks so much everyone from the bottom of my heart!!

Thanks for the email addresses Mike, I am going to forward them to my friend if that is ok.
And copy paste some of your message to her, if that is ok. I am sending you a private message.
Thanks everyone!!!

I always wantd to go to Best Friends Sanctuary, but IN is so much closer, so I think I'll vacation at Mike and Mugsy's!!
I'm an excellent smoocher and belly rubber so I can easily lend a lip and hand in that department. PLUS I can pooper-scoop with the best of em!!
Harley is a sweetem..what a little doll..GAWD I love those ears! Lord knows, if I could, I would scoop that bundle of puppy love right up!!
it's comforting to know if your friend in AZ isn't interested, that Harley-kins will definitely get a great home!! Phew!

My friend here is Tucson said she wants a smaller dog since she doesn't have a yard and lives in an apartment. But I'll still keep trying.

Well......Kimmy......there's now hardwood on the floor in the hall and there's a mirror in the big bathroom. Mike's been working such stupid hours that he just doesn't have time.

No I haven't heard anything, my friend should be here in OH now. Not sure if she will be able to check her email. And I don't have her parents address.
