Print an adoption flyer for Prince!
PRINCE ~6-8 years old. Not good with dogs. Kids and cats TBD. Prince is a very special boy, who lived in a shelter for a whole year before coming into GSRA. The shelter took care of this sweet boy and kept him safe, they saw something in him that was worthwhile to protect. I cannot thank them enough for doing this! Prince first came to us almost completely shut down, but we have given him time to decompress on his terms. This is key to this special boy. If he is rushed too quickly to acclimate to your environment, it will scare him. Now that Prince has been in foster care for over a month, he is a completely different dog. He loves his foster family, is a very happy and content boy, lives for his walks where he scouts bunnies and squirrels, and has a playful side that will make you feel warm inside. There is just something magical about him. You just have to give him time to relax enough to show it to you. Prince will do best in a home without any dogs or children since it just adds to his uncertainty. We are just now starting to work with him on some obedience, so slow and steady will win the race. Prince is house trained and knows how to use a dog door and has not had one accident in our home. He doesn't need to be crated since he respects your belongings. He will counter surf if given the chance though. He loves to smell EVERYTHING! Prince is a laid back dude who just likes to hang out with his family, and would love to accompany you on nice walks. He is very anxious in the car, so someone who doesn't expect him to travel much is necessary. We will work on de-sensitizing him by building on good experiences to see if we can get him more comfortable. While Prince is a "work in progress,” he won’t disappoint you if given the time. Note: Prince is heartworm positive, but he will be treated for them prior to adoption.
