22 POUNDS BUT SHOULD BE ABOUT 14 – DAPPLED COAT – ABOUT 7 YEARS OLD – CALM AND NICE – GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS AND STRANGERS – NOT SURE ABOUT CATS – LOVES TO STAY WITH YOU AND LOVES THE CAR – NICE BOY
Primo is a handsome dachshund mix. His gray is because of his dapple coat! He has a calm and happy nature. We think Primo had the good life for some time. He seems very used to driving in the car looking out of the driver’s window from his perch on the driver’s lap, good at the vet’s office, likes to sleep on a pillow at your head in bed! He’s used to going for walks but something happened (his previous owner got ill??) and those walks stopped and he gained weight. Indeed, he weighs 22lb and need to lose 8 or 10 of those! He is becoming more active by the day. He is a loving little guy, spends time at your feet, good recall, happy with the other dogs and with men, women, older children and strangers, quiet and housetrained. Not sure about cats, but likely fine. He has been someone’s much-loved pet and was very frightened in the shelter before he came to us. We would love to see him in his loving and quiet forever home getting on with his little life. ——Thank you for your interest in a Minpinerie Rescue Group dog. We are based in the Ottawa area.
