Harper is our latest addition - what a sweet heart! She has an absolutely fabulous
temperament and tons of character. Harper is great with kids - gentle, playful and
very tolerant. She gets along well with every dog she meets.
She does the "butt tuck dance," is a "talker" and loves
to cuddle on the couch. She charmed my husband and his parents so quickly they insisted
we keep her before I even asked.
My mother in law would happily have Harper stay at their house full time, but she is
allergic to dogs, so Harper goes for visits instead.
Harper has Fragmented Coronoid Process (FCP) in both elbows
and an OCD lesion in one. She had elbow surgery shortly after we got her and was in
a cast for a month. She is now on adequan to help her joints heal which will be
followed with glycoflex.
Harper's elbow surgeries and convalescence are complete and she runs jumps and plays with
the other dogs as if she never had a problem - thank you Dr. Goldstein! In fact, she is
swift as the wind and now out races all of our other mastiffs. She has a beautiful rear
and amazing flexibility.
