Harley is the Canine Companion of Susan & Donald, who are Canidlover's cyberfriends through the CANINE LIST. Harley is a beautiful Yellow Labrador, and the only dog on this page who has his OWN e-mail account! Be sure to drop him a line. And to see more photos of this handsome guy, go to his Home Page.
I know you're wondering how Harley got his name. Here is the story, in Susan's own words:
"The story behind 'Harley' is that my hubby *always* wanted a Harley Davidson motorcycle, and I always said, 'No way'. I, on the other hand, *always* wanted a Labrador Retriever . . . see where this is going
<LOL>!! I got the dog, and he got to name it!!! He still 'threatens' me with the bike, though! I tell him, sure, after he pays off our mortgage (the next 25 years' worth) and ups his disability and life insurance policies!!! (This is all in good fun, of course.)
"Harley's 'official' name (on his AKC limited registration) is 'Harley D Freeman Lennon' . . . the 'D' , of course, stands for 'Dog'!"
"Gimme that! It's mine! I threw it!!" "No, you gimme it! It's mine! I brought it back!!"
Harley & Susan enjoy a day at the beach in Connecticut. (No, I don't know who finally got the stick - why not e-mail Harley & find out?)
IT'S MINE IF . . .
"Okay, I'm bored with the stick routine; let's play with the ball now! Susan? Donald? Anybody?!"
"So what more could any Human want than a Canine Companion like me for Valentine's Day?"
"Um, I don't remember anyone telling me I was gonna be a father!"
"You guys were just funnin' me, weren't you?!"
"'Trick or Treat'? Whaddya mean, 'Trick or Treat'? You woke me out of a perfectly good NAP to play this trick on me?? So where's my TREAT?!?!
"Hey, that's a 'scratch 'n' sniff' sticker on the corner of my picshur. Does it work on your computer?"
"You can make me wear these antlers, but you can't make me like 'em!"
"OK, Harley. Let's walk over this way! Heel! Well, don't heel then. I know - Look Bewildered! Good Dog, Harley!"
"Harley can't wait til Bergie gets a little bigger!"
In the Fall of 1998, Harley was having "skin problems". Turns out, Susan says, "Harley had a Mast Cell Tumor and I advise people to get any suspicious lumps or bumps investigated and biopsied. I shudder to think how that tumor might have progressed if I hadn't insisted that the vet remove it. I just had a 'gut' feeling about it (it resembled the skin cancer I'd had earlier in the year). Mast Cell Tumors Grade 1 are like 99% curable, but they progress. With a 2 you're in trouble, needing chemo and/or radiation, and a 3 is usually fatal because of metastisis. Scary stuff."

1. If I like it, it's mine.
2. If it's in my mouth, it's mine.
3. If I can take it from you, it's mine.
4. If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.
5. If it's mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
6. If I'm chewing something, all the pieces are mine.
7. If it looks just like mine, it is mine.
8. If I saw it first, it's mine.
9. If you are playing with something and you put it down, it automatically becomes mine.
