Harper (formerly Chonga)

We adopted Chonga on Friday November 26, 2010. He now goes by Harper. We tried many different names, but he seemed to like this one the best. He has been a great addition to our family. We love him so much. Harper eats really fast compared to our other dog, Bailey, so we had to teach him to eat from his bowl. He has done really well. Well, now he will wait until Bailey is done to see if he has anything left. He is a very sweet, smart, and a fast learner. He learned no, outside, and go to bed really fast. I guess because we say it a lot. He was barking at people and other dogs a lot, but not so much now as we walk him in our neighborhood everyday. Harper gets upset when we leave to go to work, but we think he calms down a little later. I think it helps to have another dog around. I now only work three days a week so I will be home a lot more. He still likes to nip at your feet when walking, but he only does that right when we wake up and when he comes home. I k
now he will probably grow out of that as he gets older. I call him my little Tazmanian Devil just because he can get so wild and hyper sometimes. Bailey and Harper get along great except for when it comes to toys. Even if we get them the same toy for each they still get jealous over what the other one has. We are working with them on that. We love him so much! It's hard to imagine that he was at a kill shelter before you guys rescued him. Thank you so much!! I have attached his photo with Santa. Harper (Chonga) is on the right with the black nose.

Thanks,
