Royal's Story

Meet Royal, a 2-year-old black, brown, and white beauty weighing 54 pounds, with a big personality and an even bigger heart!<br/>Royal is an adorable sweetheart and loves being around people. She enjoys attention and isn’t shy about asking for more! She has is very playful and energetic, especially when she’s outside. Fetch is her favorite game and she will gleefully sprint after any toy you toss for her!<br/>Royal is a strong girl who is still working on her leash manners and can be a bit jumpy she gets excited. The good news? She already knows how to sit for a treat and will benefit from continued training and consistency to help her channel her energy.<br/>With other dogs, Royal showed playful interest—she was a little confused when she met another shelter dog for the first time, but she relaxed into play bows and excited movement, showing she may enjoy an active canine companion with proper introductions.<br/>If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate dog who’s ready for playtime, adventures, and learning new skills, Royal could be your perfect match!<br/><br/>\This pet is eligible for an Adoption Audition! What is an Adoption Audition? It’s a 5-day, no-strings-attached, trial adoption period. You can take this pet home to try it out! Interested?

You may also view available pets online in advance, on our 24PetConnect page. If you meet a shelter pet you'd like to adopt, complete an adoption questionnaire (available at the Shelter), and one of our Adoption Counselors will go over that pet's medical and behavior history and information. Make it official! We do same-day adoptions which means pets go home the same day they're adopted!
