It’s great that you are doing your level best to investigate Harleys issues. 
CM & SM are conditions of degree. You will see videos of dogs screaming writhing hallucinating etc. that it’s the extreme end of symptoms. Many affected dogs display very mild symptoms (some even none, being a problem in breeding programs). I’d be a tiny bit wary of writing off a structurally induced condition while the dog is still growing. 
has he actually had an MRI scan? 
 

I hope you can find some answers. 

He would need a MRI scan..
I have had some previous experience with CM and SM, there are different degrees of it. But it can be controlled to a certain extent (if thats what it is)with a combination of the right mediations and doses.. Canine Neurologist Specialists are better than Vets at diagnosing and treating it if thats the case imo
Some Canine Specialists can do brain surgery for it but it doesn't last long... and the Specialist i knew stopped doing them as he found they weren't successful long term.

Years ago I knew a Boxer that its owners thought it had extreme behaviour problems. Turned out it had a brain tumour, despite all the other tests coming back clear when they first got him checked out by their Vet :(
 

:offtopic: but lovely to see you back Jules

Awwww thankyou Boronia :heart: I did a post in here  when we first got our Stephie. You might recall we lost our young Miah suddenly last April :( 

I remember you posting that the beautiful Miah was no longer with us, you had disappeared for quite some time after, Dogz would have been difficult for you then

It's lovely to see you back :)
