Hi, I'm Harry and this is my site:
Harry's Life - One Dog’s Tail
This site is about my life's story and all the adventures I am having, but it's not about just me. I am trying to call attention to the plight of homeless animals. Countless dogs and cats are euthanized because they haven't been adopted, and it doesn't have to be this way.
Please check out the site, look at my pictures,watch my videos,write to me, and learn how you can help out.
Thanks for visiting and
Woof!
About me
Hi I'm Lisa, Harry's dog mom, groomer, and chew toy provider. I knew Harry was special when I first looked into his eyes. There he was, but a few months old, alone in a cage at the SPCA where I was working. He was docile, intelligent, trusting, and very eager to please. I had worked with dozens of unwanted puppies but fell in love with this one...
He helped me raise three foster kittens, was my best friend during a trying time in my life, and surprised me with his incredible athleticism! At 7, he is still a puppy at heart who greets anyone he meets with style and enthusiasm. Recently he became an official volunteer with Therapy Pets, an amazing SF Bay Area organization that connects animals and people in therapeutic and healing ways. He'll perform tricks for, and give kisses to anyone he visits.
Harry thought he could fly when he jumped through an open window eight feet up to chase a critter in the yard! Luckily, both he and the scared little raccoon were unharmed!
