Prima Donna is a brindle beauty with a smoosh face and a personality that lights up every room! This approximately 1-year-old pittie mix, weighing around 58 lbs, is pure joy on legs. She's silly, affectionate, and devoted to her people, showering them with love and making everyone smile with her goofy antics. Prima loves people of all ages and enjoys cuddles, couch naps, and hugs. She's social and outgoing, believing everyone is her friend, and she adores playing with all sorts of toys, from stuffies to tug ropes.
Ideal Home
Prima would do best in a home with older children (15+) who are comfortable around larger, energetic dogs. Her enthusiastic "wrecking ball of affection" style of play and occasional lack of personal space mean she needs a family that can confidently set boundaries and enjoys her rough-and-rowdy nature. She would thrive in a home with a playful, happy-go-lucky male dog who enjoys chase games and can match her energy. However, Prima does not require another dog to be happy and would also be content as the sole beloved princess of the household. She needs to be in a cat-free home.
Ongoing Health
Prima is a rescue dog, and while we believe her to be around 1 year old, breed and age cannot be guaranteed.
Training & Support
Prima is smart and responsive to corrections, but her immense excitement can sometimes override her impulse control, leading to mouthiness during play. She's learning to curb this behavior and understands "no." She already knows how to sit and may know "down." She walks well on a gentle leader, which helps her stay grounded, especially when she gets excited about walks. With structure, routine, and positive guidance, she continues to improve and shines when checking in with her handler.
