Prince Naveen looks like the wise old neighborhood dog who has seen a few things but knows where the best couch spot is in every house. The little dusting of salt-and-pepper on his face makes people assume he is a senior gentleman, but surprise... this sweet boy is estimated to be just under 3 years old. We suspect he may be a Lab mix, but rescue rules apply, so breed and birthday are our best guess. What we do know is that he is absolutely built for soft blankets, stuffed toys, and being deeply loved by his people. Go watch Prince Naveen on YouTube, then come right back to read more about this Lamby-carrying couch prince.
Prince Naveen is currently fostered in a loving home with multiple other dogs and is wonderfully easygoing with everyone. He is not the life-of-the-party type; he's more of a quiet observer, happy to roam around, check in with his people, and carry his beloved Lamby toy around like his life-long bestie. His foster says he adores that stuffed toy and proudly totes it room to room. He has excellent house manners and is both house-trained and crate-trained. He loves lounging on the couch, enjoys affection, and has such a soft, connected way about him with people. He gives the impression of a dog who may have spent some time surviving on his own at some point, but who never stopped wanting the comfort of home life. There is something very tender about him. With other dogs, Prince Naveen is socially appropriate, calm, and communicative. He greets politely, shares space well, and tends to simply walk away if another dog becomes annoying or overwhelming. He gave a few very fair, appropriate corrections to an overly pushy puppy during playgroup, then immediately moved on with his day like a mature, cool adult. He is not looking for drama. He is looking for peace, snacks, and a good ol comfy couch.
Ideal Home
Prince Naveen will need a cat-free home as he is too eager and has not shown an understanding that cats' swats are a request for space.
Ongoing Health
All vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectable, heartworm test and treatment if needed, a microchip with free lifetime registration) is included.
Training & Support
He can bark when food is being prepared, but he corrects easily if distracted. Because he can be vocal and occasionally likes to remind passing cars of the speed limit, apartment life may depend a bit on the setup and the approach in the home.
