Story
Princess is a deeply loving, people-centered 4 year old dog who thrives on human connection. She is incredibly affectionate, gentle with kids, and happiest when she’s close to her people. She adores attention, enjoys being part of family life, and has a calm, sweet presence with humans of all ages. One of Princess’s favorite things is water—whether it’s splashing, wading, or just being near it. She brings joy and personality into every space she’s in and bonds very strongly with her people. Princess does best as the only dog in the home. She is not comfortable living with other dogs and needs a dog-free environment where she can feel relaxed and safe. This is not something she chose—it’s simply how she’s wired—and in the right home, she truly shines. We are seeking an experienced, loving home where Princess can be the center of attention and the life she deserves. This decision is being made out of love and responsibility, with her well-being and safety as the top priority
