Prince was dealt a bum deal with his first owner who abandoned him. He arrived underweight and alone, but he has a joy and love for life that are very much intact. He is less than two years old with a lot of puppy left in him. He weighs about 78 pounds and should be gaining some more with his adolescent boy appetite.
As with all healthy puppies, Prince wants to play with others and graves love and attention. He is learning to control his energy and learn commands. He loves everybody, including children, but he may be physically overwhelming for smaller children until he gets some age on him. He'll need a fenced yard with space to run and explore. Most of all, Prince needs a patient, steady, loving companion to help him become the great dog that he is meant to be. Come meet this sweet soul!
