My story

**Meet Prince Charming!**Prince Charming was surrendered to ACC when his owner moved into an apartment that doesn't allow pets. With a name like his, it's no surprise this five-year-old brindle boy has a lot of heart-and a lot of energy. Loyal, sensitive, and super smart, Prince Charming is hoping to find a family who will help him channel his enthusiasm and give him the structure and love he craves.---**My ideal home:**Prince Charming is looking for an experienced adult-only home where he can thrive in a calm, structured environment. He'll do best with someone who understands working with high-energy dogs and is committed to positive reinforcement training. A home with a yard to stretch his legs-or a person who enjoys long walks and enrichment games-would be ideal.**Good with kids?**No. While he lived with young children in his previous home, due to his resource guarding, anxiety, and impulsive behavior, we recommend a home without children under 13.**Good with other pets?**Prince Charming lived peacefully with a cat and was described as friendly and playful with familiar dogs. At the shelter, he's shown some nervousness and overexcitement around unfamiliar dogs. If joining a home with another dog, structured introductions and slow acclimation are a must.**Leash manners:**This boy has a lot of energy on leash! He pulls and may lunge at small animals, but he's been making progress with decompression walks and reward-based training like "up/down" games, polite exchanges, and focus work. A front-clip harness and patience will go a long way.**Overall health:**Prince Charming is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. He had a bout of kennel cough and some GI issues early on but has since recovered. He's currently a healthy 59-pound pup with a great appetite.**Behavior determination:****Level 3** - Prince Charming is a bright, active dog who struggles with anxiety, low impulse control, and resource guarding. He's responded well to positive reinforcement techniques in the shelter and is ready for a savvy adopter who can continue building on that foundation.---**Fun facts about me:*** I love car rides and am crate trained for up to 8 hours* My previous family said I'm outgoing and playful* I enjoy toys, treats, and enrichment games-just be ready for a high jump or two!* I know how to sit, use wee-wee pads, and settle when given the right support* My adoption fee has been **sponsored**, thanks to generous supporters!---**Ready to bring some royal energy into your life?** Prince Charming is full of love and potential-he just needs a family who can match his spirit and support his journey. If you're ready to meet your energetic new best friend, come see Prince today! Primary Color: Brindle Secondary Color: White Weight: 55.125 Age: 5yrs 3mths 0wks

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Prince Charming, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
