HARPER (ANNE)

My fiancé and I adopted one of the puppies from the litter of boxers, her name was Anne, she now goes by Harper.  Initially our wiener dog had a hard time adjusting to sharing the attention of his mom and dad; this created some stress for Harper.  However, she is a persistent young lady and they are now on their way to becoming best friends.  This is also a relief for us as we feared Howie wouldn't warm up. and we would have to find a more welcoming home for Harper.  We have been attending puppy classes at the siren pet store to help with some of the basic training techniques.  Harper is a very curious and energetic young lady so can serve as the class clown at times, but overall she is meeting the expectations and learning the commands.  She loves socializing with other dogs and is mindful of her size when playing with her smaller four legged friends.  She also loves children and is very gentle with them.  One of her most favorite things to do is play with her sister; our very close friends also adopted one of the puppies from the same litter.  She also enjoys going for walks on The Gandy and giving her dad kisses.  She has brought so much joy, and at times some frustration that goes with having a puppy, into our lives.  I have attached a few photos of her playing as well as her looking out for her brother.  (We adopted Howie from the Burnett county humane society 2 years ago in October).
