Meet Princeton

Princeton – Gentle, Mellow, and Easygoing Meet Princeton, a 14-year-old American Pit Bull Terrier mix who embodies the quiet sweetness of a senior gentleman. Dream Walking Companion: Princeton is a pleasure on leash! He doesn’t pull or bark, instead maintaining a slow, steady, comfortable pace. He takes direction well and makes every walk feel like a relaxing stroll. Calm & Gentle: Princeton is remarkably composed, even when excited dogs walk nearby. He stays quiet and nonreactive, showing off his wonderfully mellow personality. Curious Sniffer: He loves taking his time to sniff and explore the world around him. For Princeton, a walk is all about enjoying the little things at his own pace. Sweet Senior Soul: Quiet and still in his kennel, Princeton brings a peaceful presence wherever he goes. He is not always interested in hot dogs or other treats during his outing, but his gentle nature speaks for itself. Princeton would do best with appropriately matched dogs or as a solo dog with well-matched canine friends. Click here to learn how to adopt and submit your adoption questionnaire.
