Patch Pets: Primo is Worth the Attention He Needs
Primo basks in the gentle, encouraging touch of volunteers, which is a far cry from life in the basement he was rescued from.
You sometimes hear about homes that are considered “fixer-uppers.” They make wonderful, meaningful projects for new owners to pour their love and personalities into. Well, Primo is a fixer-upper--one with a sweet grin and cute little ears. He's more than worth the attention he needs.
Primo has come a long way since he was rescued and bought to Animal Friends. Finally, he basks in the gentle, encouraging touch of our volunteers…which is a far cry from life in the basement he was rescued from.
Right now this frightened dog is motivated by food. He loves his Kibble. With some coaxing and training, you’ll be rewarded for giving this little guy a new life. He deserves it after all he’s been through.
We’d like to see him move into to a quiet, adult home with a “safe haven” (a crate) for when he gets frightened, which happens a lot. You’ll need to be patient during housetraining, and aware that he may have ongoing medical needs and may never play like other dogs.
If you choose to adopt this special dog, you will watch him learn about living in a real home with a loving family.
