Meet Prim
Prim is available for adoption!
Prim is funny, ADORABLE and puppy silly awkward. She thinks she is a princess and that everyone knows it. We have loved watching her weekly progress at PAWS. She just completed her 8 week course, located in Orofino. Prim scored a 9/10 on her CGC test! She has learned hand signals for sit, stay, look, down, good, ok, and heel. Prim has also been trained with a vibrate collar, and is still sharpening her skills. She is a favorite with the dogs and all the handlers/trainers.
Prim is deaf and struggled early on with GI issues however we finally figured out her mystery illness. Prim has a slow emptying tummy. It’s very manageable, smaller and more frequent meals, no meals before bedtime and a simple inexpensive medication controls it.
Prim appears to have some sensitivity to sunlight, she is acclimating to her Rex Specs, to help filter the brightness out so she can open her eyes a bit more outside.
Prim loves walks! She is very curious. Prim loves other dogs and to play. Prim will be best matched with a very patient dog that is as energetic as she is and that also loves to snuggle. She knows NO personal space. Prim will need to be crated when left alone, for her safety, she is a puppy and curious, however she isn’t a big fan of the crate. Unknown with cats.
Prim will do best with a family or person who is familiar with deaf dogs and will continue to work with her or one that is willing to learn.
Prim is friendly and interested in little people and might jump on them to play. She will also try to steal their food.
She loves treats. We recommend children over 5 for Prim due to her puppy play fulness.
