Princess

BULLY MIX – brindle with white boots and blaze on chest. 60lbs ADULT FEMALE; DOB est 3/2017 ARRIVAL: 9/3/2020 with 6 puppies (Fiona, Hans, Merida, Ariel, Aladdin, Aurora) – Now all rehomed! HISTORY: Surrendered when her family couldn’t take care of puppies. Mom to the Disney Puppies, Princess is well loved by everyone who meets her. She was even chosen as a ‘Staff Pick’. Princess’ age is unknown, but she’s most likely two or three. Many are struck by just how much Princess loves people. Her trademark happy whine can be heard whenever staff members approach her pen. Her go-to move when someone comes to visit is to stand on her hind legs and gently wrap her front paws around the nearest person to give them a hug. Without a litter of puppies to worry about, Princess has seen a surge in energy and playfulness. She loves fetch and will happily chase ball after ball before rolling over for some well-earned belly rubs. The entire staff has fallen in love with this sweet girl and we think you will, too! A Word from Princess “Can you see my beautiful coat? Aren’t I gorgeous? Come see me, and I will wrap you with love! Pay attention to me, and I am your best buddy! I might be a bit much for a small child, but I would be fine with older children that could handle my hugs! I love to go for walks, and I love any attention you give me. Staying in this pen is so hard for me, because I want everyone to come see me, and I tell them so! But don’t let my bark put you off; I love everybody!” What Princess Needs in Her Home Princess would be happiest where there is someone home most of the time, and possibly would love to have a family with older school age children to love on her. Her first introduction to cats suggested she would not be good with them, and another dog would also be introducing possible trouble. Princess needs ongoing work to understand the concept of loose leash walking, but she is smart and eager to please. With patience and guidance from her human she has star pupil potential! A couple of sessions with a trainer would provide a solid base from which to work!. A fenced yard would be a must, as she loves to fetch and especially loves to run. Make Princess’s day – give her a forever home! She will return your investment with interest! Winter 2024 Update: "I've had to pick up my overnight bag and move again.  Yep.  Another mom and her pups have invaded the office closet.  Typically this space is reserved for me for night time but now,  I am in the bathroom office where things are OK but not as spacious as that linen closet.  Oh well.  I'm almost over it and with a steady replacement on my favorite snack Himalayan chew toys,  my tail is still wagging and I am content.  You may recall winter is just about my least favorite time of year.  With my thinner coat, the chill goes right through me so the fun factor does not much register on my preferred warm weather radar.  I do have 2 winter coats to help me along...a dark purple sweater and also a cheery bright red coat so I'm at least dressing the part!  LOL.  With my health intact and my spirit in happy mode,  I'm busy counting the days for warmer weather." Fall 2023 Update: "I couldn't be more pleased as I have a new bed," beams our effervescent bully mix Princess. Yes, it's true that our good friend has a new Kuranda bed and gosh, she just loves it. Princess has enjoyed and still enjoys her large, square wooden sofa but even the Kuranda folks might say, "Well duh, of course she loves it." Princess has had a good summer with her regular dog walking friends getting her out and about to enjoy our trails. In addition, she maintains her real estate in our office area for her overnights. If given her druthers, Princess would likely love to be inside 24/7 but for now, it is what it is. With no emerging health issues, we are lining up perfect winter coats for our pretty lady to keep her at her best as the temps start to dip. She's a delight and honor to have under our care. We are truly the lucky ones to have her on site.
