Harlan
CH AusableRVR's NinetyNine Problems DNA-VP
What can we say about Harlan, she is just the bestest girl in our eyes, she is our constant shadow. I can't imagine what life would be like without her. Harlan is vivacious, energetic, athletic and engaging. She has never met a stranger. Harlan is the pick of the litter from our very first litter, all the way back in 2018, with Sheldon X Lois. Harlan has been the cornerstone of our breeding program, she whelped 3 beautiful litters with us producing Vesper, Kit, Aspen, Felix and many other beautiful offspring. We are blessed to have her footprint to go forward with.

01
Temperament
Harlan is super easy to live with, the puppy I wanted to keep from day 1, my pick puppy from my first litter. She is fun, energetic and playful, albeit a bit bossy. She takes after her mum Lois who was always keeping "the kids" in line. If anyone gets too rowdy, Harlan will make sure to keep the fun to a minimum. We always joke that she is her mother's daughter, "the fun police".

Energy
Harlan is a really nice energy for an Australian Shepherd, she's always ready to go, she is 100% shadow dog. When we go to the kitchen she is right there with us, always underfoot. Harlan is happy to relax and hang out with the family when not much is going on. She's very easy going, a joy to take on car rides, and walks. Harlan isn't the biggest fan of swimming/water, but she happily joins us on the beach when we go to the cottage.
