My story

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

Prim-at-a-glance: 1-1/2 year old, female, spayed, Boxer/Terrier mix, 45 lbs., up-to-date on core vaccines, microchipped and heartworm negative. Prim takes monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention.

Prim was abandoned by her owners at a boarding facility that was doing her training. Prim is now in a LOVEPAWS foster home and she is a delight to have around! She responds to basic commands such as sit, stay and shake hands. Prim could use more experience socializing with other dogs in a low-key environment as she is quite vocal when she sees other dogs on her walks around town, however, she is easy to walk on the leash. Once she's given the opportunity to get that leash unhooked in a safe, fenced area she loves to run and run as fast as she can. Zoom, zoom, zoom!

When it's time to settle down inside the house, squeaky toys are her favorite. Well, food and treats are her favorite, but then squeaky toys if no food is being offered.

Prim would do best in a home with a fenced yard so she can run to her heart's content. She's cautious meeting new people and while adults understand to take it slow, young kids may try to rush the BFF thing so older, respectful kids would be a better fit. She hasn't been tested with cats. Prim can be shy and skittish but she is gentle and loving and makes a great movie or game-watching couch buddy.

More about this rescue

LOVEPAWS was founded as an animal intake prevention program to help keep pets in homes and out of shelters. To do this, we offer various types of assistance to pet owners including our pet food pantry and our re-homing service. We help find new homes for pets whose owners cannot keep them but do not want to surrender their pet to the shelter. While our focus is on Prince George’s County, MD, we offer these services to the entire DC Metro area.

Our scope and mission has grown quickly since we were founded in 2019 and we now pull dogs and cats from open-admission, high-intake shelters in MD, VA and other Southern states. This has expanded our rescue to be able to save dogs and cats of all breeds. Our expanded mission is to save the lives of abandoned dogs and cats and place them in loving and permanent homes. While we are a non-breed-specific rescue, we are a pittie-friendly rescue that has a soft spot for the pit bulls at the Prince George’s County animal shelter. They face the heartbreaking reality of the county’s pit bull ban which makes them unavailable for adoption to the public. We are committed to stepping forward whenever we can and wherever there is the greatest need.

LOVEPAWS is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We are an exclusively foster-based rescue with our foster network spanning MD, DC, and VA.
