About Priss

Priss is a ten-year-old female Lab mix looking for a calm, loving retirement. She’s the kind of dog who soaks up soft beds, gentle petting, and quiet companionship. After spending her days in the shelter, she’s ready for something better: a warm home where she can finally relax and feel safe. Priss has lived with other dogs before and should do fine with another mellow, respectful canine friend. She’s not able to join playgroups just yet as she’s recovering from recent veterinary care, including her spay, surgery, and dental work. Above all, she needs a family willing to show patience and tenderness—she’s earned it after everything she’s been through. Priss is not a match for homes with cats, but she’d thrive with people who enjoy a slower pace and have time for a gentle, devoted companion. Give this sweet senior her well-deserved “retirement,” and she’ll pay you back with loyalty and affection. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
