Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Prince!
Need some big love? Look no further!!! At 100 pounds, I can give you plenty OF love and plenty TO love. My name is Prince, and I’m a senior, handsome, healthy, sweet & gentle boy with plenty of energy still in me. You could change my name, but I know it well. I was a loved pet prior to ending up in rescue (no fault of my own). I turned up heartworm positive and received treatments early this year, and now all is good. I still have a slight cough from those treatments, and it may last a bit before it goes away. Other than that… a clean bill of health! I am potty trained and crate trained (although I really don’t need to be in it). I know a few simply commands like SIT, LAY DOWN, and PAW. Yes, I’m a gentleman and will shake your hand.
Some might say I’m a little thick and have a few pounds to lose, but that just means I’m a gentle giant, is all. Foster mom and I are working on that with daily walks two times a day, and I’m clearing 2 to 2.5 miles a day. I love walks!!! I don't pull EXCEPT if I see a squirrel or another dog. Hold on tight because that 100 lbs is a lot when I want something. So probably a good idea an adult or strong teenager is in charge of walking me. I am dog friendly and want to meet other dogs, but I will also protect you if I sense the situation warrants it. My family means the most to me, and I will stand up for you. Foster mom says I read situations very well and respond to whatever is given to me. You get what you give she always says!
I have really warmed up to my foster mom and have become a “velcro dog” she says. I am a smart boy! I spent many years as an outside dog in Tennessee, but I gotta say I don’t mind being an inside dog now, especially with these cold Wisconsin days. I will sleep in my dog bed next to you and never leave your side. Honestly,wherever you are, I want to be. Reminds me of that one song by that artist….what’s his name…. oh yeah, Prince – just like me. It’s called Take Me With You
As I mentioned before, I am dog friendly, so if you have a dog sibling for me, that is great. Simply remember, foster mom’s saying – you get what you give. If you want to play, I play. If you want to shake a tail feather in my face, I will respond accordingly… all 100lbs of me. I love all people and kids, too. I think I am easy to please and could fit right in with just about any scenario - a family, a retired couple, or even a single person. I hope you are the one who wants to take me home and get all the love I have to give!
*Prince is being fostered in Hartland, WI
