My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Prince!



This handsome guy came to us in March of 2021. When he was brought to us, he was very underweight, and had many bumps, bruises, and scratches from his previous life. Shortly after his arrival, he was tested and found positive for heartworms. Prince started his heartworm treatments in early March, and after six months of difficult treatment, we are happy to say that he is now healthy, negative, and ready for his forever home.  Prince is estimated to have been born in 2015, and is a lab mix. Now that he is cleared, he loves nothing more than to play! Although he may be approaching his senior years, now that he is healthy and well cared for, he has a brand new peppy outlook on life. He loves to run around and play with his friends, but his favorite thing to do is definitely to chew and chase tennis balls.  Prince loves to be outdoors and would be thrilled to have a big yard to run around and play, after all there are so many good things to smell and explore! He is also mature enough that he would love to have a person to call his own to relax with at the end of a long day. Although we always require a meet and greet, Prince is always open to meeting a potential new doggy friend! He does good with kids, too, and would be happy in a home with them. Unfortunately, he thinks cats are just another kind of toy, so he is best suited to a home without them. One of our favorite things about Prince, is that he loves to snatch his blankets off his indoor bed to take outside so he can enjoy the sun while he naps.



Upon adoption, Prince will also require a year supply of our heartworm prevention for us to ensure he will not go through heartworms again.



Prince is fully vetted, microchipped, and neutered, and it is $150 for his heartworm prevention.
