Meet Royal! Royal is an adult golden retriever mix available for adoption through the St. Louis Senior Dog Project. Project worker Elise describes Royal this way:

This adorable pooch is not quite sure of what dog breeds he is a mix of: maybe golden retriever with shepherd, or a lab? But there is one thing Royal is sure of and that is that he is ready to give his new family a lot of love!

Royal was found as a stray in the City of St. Louis and was taken to animal control, his sweetness got him noticed immediately and Royal was very happy to get out of the pound and in to a foster home. He is currently getting along fine with other dogs at his home and he absolutely loves attention from his foster mom. She reports that he is housebroken, knows several commands and is a good watchdog.

If you would like to meet this sweet pooch or other dogs looking for forever homes, stop by the Shrewsbury Petco on Watson Rd this Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. To check out adoptable dogs online, visit St. Louis Senior Dog Project.
