We adopted Prince as an 8 week old puppy and while we love him dearly, we now
have a 14 month old and Prince is not adjusting well. We are giving him all we can, but
it’s just not enough and it’s become apparent that he’s unhappy/becoming more
anxious by the day. We truly believe there’s a situation out there where he’ll be so
much happier.
Ideal households for Prince:
1. Someone with an active lifestyle looking for an adventure buddy. Prince loves
to hike, swim, run and play, and when he’s tired he’s a much more relaxed
version of himself
2. A home with a lot of property where he can be outside most of the day -
roaming free and lounging
Note - older kids in the home may be ok, but younger kids would not. He does great
with small/medium sized dogs, but can be weird with bigger dogs. Not good with cats.
He has his cuddly moments, but is also very content in his own space and does well
when left home alone. He is vocal and responds to certain stimuli - particularly
skateboards/scooters and any animals he sees on the TV. We’ve met with behavioral
trainers to work on these quirks, but someone with more time and energy to put into
training may have more success. He’s currently on Fluoxetine and Trazodone to help
with his anxiety (has been on them for three years).
Overall Prince is a very sweet and fun loving dog, but in the long run we do think
rehoming is best for all parties, and we are committed to finding a his new forever
home.
