About Retro

Meet Retro! Retro waited at the shelter from February until September 2026, making him one of its longest residents before Pitt Friends finally pulled him into rescue. Despite spending months in a kennel, he never lost his smile or zest for life. At around 5 years old and 47 pounds, Retro has settled into his adult phase. He is calm, gentle, and easy to walk on a leash, always happy to pause for a moment and enjoy his surroundings. He has loved his playtime with other dogs and remains wonderfully relaxed around both people and pups. Retro displayed his easygoing nature beautifully while being cared for by a young volunteer at an adoption event. This heartworm negative pup is known for his sweetness and tendency to shift from calm to showing off his biggest, goofiest grin. After far too long waiting to be noticed, he is ready for the family and forever home he has always deserved. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
