About Prince

Meet Prince — A German Shorthaired Pointer mix with a heart of gold and legs built for adventure!

This handsome boy has the classic athletic GSP build, making him the perfect partner for hikes, runs, and outdoor exploration. He's started hiking with his foster parents and is learning the manners required to be a good hiking partner. But......don't let his sporty looks fool you—Prince is just as content being your personal couch potato, ready to binge-watch your favorite shows and snuggle up for a nap.

Prince is a master of affection and loves nothing more than a good cuddle session. He's also a toy aficionado with a special love for his giggle ball and a knack for creating a "treasure trove" of toys on his dog bed. His foster parents affectionately call him "the collector" because he delights in gathering his favorite items—and he'll even entertain himself by expertly unloading the toy box!

Prince currently lives with five medium-to-large foster dogs and thrives with companions who can match his vocal, rough-and-tumble play style. However, he does need slow, supervised introductions to new dogs. While he's never had issues in his foster home and responds well to verbal correction, Prince can be reactive when leashed or crated around other dogs. With other dogs, he may become possessive of toys or high-value items. His body language can be misread by other dogs, so a home with confident, tolerant canine siblings—or a solo-dog setup—may be ideal. He's doesn't seem to be a fan of small dogs, and his reaction to cats is unknown.

Prince would do best in a home with older, dog-savvy children who understand canine body language and respect boundaries. He thrives in a calm, structured environment where his cues are honored and his playful energy is welcomed.

Prince is also a star student! He's incredibly treat-motivated and loves healthy snacks like carrots and brussels sprouts. He was a quick learner in obedience class, and continuing his training will be a fun way to strengthen your bond. He's fantastic in the car and would be an incredible copilot for road trips and always ready to hit the open road with his favorite humans.
