Prim is a golden retriever who lives with Heather Reynolds, program and climbing coordinator with Dalplex.
Name: Prim — a nickname from Old French and Occitan prim 'shrewd', 'clever', 'artful', 'sly'. And shrewd and artful, she is.
Nickname: none
Species/breed: golden retriever
Age: 18 months
Fave food: ANY food, and even non-food items like wood and socks.
Special tricks: She has a unique ability to carry sticks that weigh almost as much as she does. She runs along the path taking out your knees from behind if you are not careful. And she has the ability to tell the difference between a video and a teams or zoom call. If the later, she expects a treat in exchange for not disrupting me during the call.
Best quality: She snuggles so close to you if you sit down, you would think she is trying to get inside you.
Social media platform or handle, if available: None. Though often featured on @heatherdr1
