This is our lovable rescue Lab, handsome Harley, aka Harlequin, because he always makes us laugh. Harley loves playing with his stuffed elephant, swinging by its ears. He also loves going for car rides, hiking through the woods and stopping to sniff the flowers, and most of all, his morning massage. But what really fascinates him is the Gaines commercial with the man using the dog’s towel. No matter where Harley is or what he’s doing, he stops to watch that one commercial, and that really makes us laugh. He’s one of a kind and loved dearly.
