Prima Donna is a brindle beauty with a squishy smoosh face, wrinkles for days, and an out-of-this-world personality that will make you smile without even trying. She's silly, full of joy, and completely devoted to her people, showing affection with a love that is hard to miss. Whether she's making you laugh with her goofy antics or dramatically leaning into you for cuddles, Prima Donna has a rare feel-good energy that makes everything around her better. She is believed to be a pit bull mix, approximately 1 year old and weighing 58 lbs. Prima is truly joy on legs, a rescue dog full of life, affection, and an undeniable adorableness.
Ideal Home
Prima Donna loves people and would thrive in a home that enjoys having visitors, as she believes everyone is her friend. Her enthusiasm for affection and play means she'd do best in a home with older children, around 15+, who are comfortable around bigger bully-type dogs and can confidently set boundaries. She would also enjoy a playful, happy-go-lucky male dog companion who tolerates her roughhousing and knows how to self-regulate during play. Prima does not need another dog to be comfortable, and would also be content as the sole princess of attention. She would do best in a cat-free home. A big backyard for zooming is a must!

Training & Support
Prima is a smart girl who responds well to correction and listens when told "no," but she occasionally needs reminders that using her mouth as a form of affection isn't the preferred method. She's like a toddler in a wrinkle suit with unlimited enthusiasm. Prima already knows how to sit, loves treats, and may know "down." She walks nicely on a gentle leader, which helps her stay grounded. While she can get a bit amped up at first because she loves walks and adventures, she learns quickly and continues to improve with a handler focused on checking in and staying focused. She truly shines with structure, routine, and continued positive guidance.
