04/05/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Brince is a princely pup, with his long legs and slender frame. He passes other dogs smartly, with a gentle wag of the tail for a peaceful greeting. It’s hard not to notice Brince as a staff member offers a friendly “Hey Brince!” and a cheerful comment that he was in a playgroup that morning. Off leash with a toy, he turns quite playful, so quick and light on his paws. He likes treats, taking them gently from my hand. Brince seems like a wonderful companion with so much to offer. Won’t you take a chance on this handsome youngster and come meet him today?
