Primrose could not hide her past even if she wanted to…I do not think we need to check  with “Ancestry.com”. Her “cotton candy” fluffy nose gives her background away…One of Primrose’s parents must have been a Bull Terrier….She is adorable, slightly plump although petite, so well groomed, healthy looking and owns the most delicious freckled nose.  She is super ready when I check in at her door…She is leashed 1,2,3 and proves to be a very good walker , eager to meet other dogs, not chasing birds and doing her business on the way. Primrose loves food and treats. I think she would eat anything, even fruits or vegetables…She searches my goodies back…No, no, no…Good manners are in orders here. Sit ! Good dog..Primrose backs of and sits at once as straight as an i…She takes food quite gently from my fingers…She comes when I call her and poses her head in my lap for caresses. Primrose is really a cute little gal, barely one year old and for you to meet in our adoption quarters. Please, do come and ask to walk her or play with her in the yard. You will be smithen and hopefully take her home as your forever best friend.

Primrose A1069995 is a young female tan brindle & white Bull Terrier perhaps APBT mix who was found tied up in front of the finder’s building a little while ago in the Bronx. The finder isn’t able/willing to keep her. The finder stated she was friendly and allowed them to untie her and walked her to our BXAC.

During intake Primrose had a loose wiggly body and loved giving/receiving hugs & kisses. She sat nicely when asked and made the cutest puppy head tilts when she heard the squeaky toy during her photo session. Primrose allowed to be scanned (-), collared & taken pictures of. She then walked (she walks right alongside you on her leash) into the kennel on her own after her food.

Behavior:

Primrose walks calmly on leash.  She was calm and relaxed during handling and easily engages in play, body is loose and wiggly, mouth open.  Primrose was easy to handle when chewing on toys

Primrose did not show any concern during the behavior assessment. The behavior department feels that she can go to an Average home.

Look: 1. Dog holds gaze with soft eyes, soft body. She allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Dog holds gaze for three full seconds.

Sensitivity: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, her eyes are averted, and her tail is in neutral position with relaxed body posture.

Tag: 1. Dog assumes play position and joins the game.

Squeeze 1: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw.

Squeeze 2: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw.

Toy 1. Dog settles down close to chew, will relinquish toy to you.

Playgroup Notes:

When off leash with other dogs, Primrose is initially uncomfortable with interaction but begins to open up and engage in play when solicited.

Group Behavior:

4/15 update: Primrose is mouthy, engaging in running play with males and females. She is uncomfortable when mounted and will cease interacting.
