Golden retriever to continue training with seeing eye program.
He has great table manners, always lends a listening ear and never touches people without permission. His good behavior has landed him invitations to places most men are not allowed, including bridal and baby showers.

Prince may not be actual royalty but he has been treated as such for the past year that he has been coming to school at Cedar Hill, Woodmont and Montville Township High Schools.
