Harris Blaze the snuggly one eyed pirate dog

My story

Before you even read Harris's bio, you have to watch his video! He is made for the camera and his personality and cuteness will even make the big dog lovers want to adopt him. And look at those ears?! I mean how can you resist those bunny like ears and that cute face. Watch his video and fall in love with this sweet little guy: https://youtu.be/sP-2iHk37pQ?si=17EPWSDWuOkxATR5 Isn't he the cutest little guy you've ever seen?! Harris Blaze is a Chihuahua mix approximately 8 years old and currently weights a whole whopping 16 lbs. He's a tiny guy but with a heart full of love and spunk doubling that. He is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it's always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. Speaking of age, you know the saying, "age is just a number," well that statement cannot be any more true for Harris. As stated above, we estimate his age to be around 8 years old and he doesn't act like a little old man one bit. I also have to mention that he has the most perfect grey confetti sprinkled throughout his face, paws, ears, and has little patches of tan perfectly placed in all the right places areas that just adds to his uniqueness. Yes, he is pretty laid back for the most I would say 80% of the time but he still finds so much joy in all the things. Harris absolutely LOVES toys! At his foster's house, he has an entire toy box where he will go and grab each of his toys, bring them to the couch and create and entire stock pile of them like he's gathering all of his favorite treasures. His foster's joke about how he is a little pirate dog parading his toys from room to room and treating each one like they are the rarest gem to behold. When it's time to go outside for a potty break or when it's that perfect sunbathing day, Harris's first stop is the toy treasure box where he'll pick out his favorite toy and take it outside with him. His one eye makes that "pirate" analogy even more fitting, hence the name "Harris Blaze the Snuggly One Eyed Pirate dog." Harris is so funny too and incredibly patient. He sat there like a distinguished gentleman when I was balancing his toys on the top of his head. I even timed it and he balanced the toy in his head for a solid 30 seconds. It was the cutest thing and making me laugh so much. Harris is very dog friendly and is currently living with a mix of pups of all ranges in sizes from as little as 7lbs to as large as 120 pounds and gets along great with all of them. He can be found snuggling up to the other dogs on occasion and loves their mellow relaxed vibe because he is the exact same way. He enjoys chilling outside with the pack, sharing treats with his buddies, and snuggling up on the couch for movie time. In a home, Harris is the perfect companion for another relaxed mellow friend like him self. A doggy friend that isn't looking for playmate and enjoys the company of another dog. If you don't have another dog that's totally fine too. Harris loves affection and is more of a people's dog than a dog's dog. He doesn't need the company of another dog to help him feel comfortable or to fulfill his energy needs. He is a lover boy naturally and is a relaxed mellow guy. Harris will have no problem being the center of your world and soaking up all the attention. He would be a great companion to have around if you work from home, he'll be content laying on the couch with all his toy treasures, or laying next to your feet while you work. And when it's time to chill? He’s all about curling up in your lap for some quality scratch time after he rolls around on his back for a bit! Harris also loves to go for car rides and can jump in and out of the car without assistance. It doesn't matter if it's just a drive around the block or even a mini road trip, he'll be the best second mate wherever the journey takes y'all. Whether it’s a slow stroll around the block, sunbathing in the yard, snuggling up on the couch for a movie marathon, or porch sitting while you're drink your morning coffee, Harris is happiest just being near you. Harris thrives in a home that has a calm and relaxed environment that matches his mellow vibe. He’s the kind of guy that doesn't need much other than your love and of course a toy treasure box with his name written all over it. Regardless of the time spent away from home or even if you simply step away into the other room, he’ll greet you at the door, tail wagging, just happy you're back no matter how much time has passed. Harris is crate and potty trained, has wonderful house manners and is simply just looking for a cozy spot to call his forever home. When it comes to kids, he is kid friendly and would do best with older kids who understand he's not a playful guy and are knowledgable about how to appropriately interact with dogs since he is an older gentleman and has some old man body sensitivities. Older kids will also match his over all mellow and relaxed vibe as well. If you have friends that have older kids or grandchild that come to visit, he would be fine with that because it's not an everyday thing. If you’re looking for a sweet, low-key companion who’s always down to relax, Harris Blaze is your guy. Come meet your new best friend!

Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress!  Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond. Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.  The rescue’s hard costs alone (excluding transport) for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,368. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the adoption fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. Transport is a significant additional expense to the rescue.  While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that the rescue does not receive government funding and must fundraise to offset the remaining expense balance which ranges $100-1,000++ per animal on these direct costs. It doesn’t stop there!
