Prince

Meet Prince, a lovable and energetic dog looking for a new forever home. I adopted Prince about 2 years ago when he was just a puppy, but unfortunately, due to my full-time work schedule, I no longer have the time to give him the attention and playtime he needs. When I adopted Prince his previous owners told me he was a Boxer Hound mix. I’m not sure how accurate that is.

Prince is a very smart dog; I taught him how to sit and shake when he was only about 8 weeks old. He has some behavioral issues and needs someone who is very patient and willing to train him. Despite his rough moments, he is a very loving dog who adores running and chasing squirrels. He also loves chew toys and treats.

Prince is not neutered and has very high energy, requiring LOTS of playtime. I am unsure how he interacts with other dogs or cats, but he would not be suitable for a home with small children as he likes to jump. Ideally, Prince would thrive in a home with a fenced-in yard where he can run freely.

If you have the time, patience, and space to give Prince the loving home he deserves, please reach out. He has so much love to give and just needs the right environment to flourish.
