#3309 Levi

When poor Levi came into our home, he was a broken, neglected, skin–and–bones Golden who, it is rumored, came from a back–yard breeder. His first bath shocked us as it showed through his fur just how skinny he actually was. We immediately improved his diet and brushed him twice a day and the results have been amazing. His weight has improved, his coat is...

#2469 Chase & #3345 Chief

Chase is from Istanbul and Chief is a recent Egyptian immigrant from Cairo. In 2015, Chase was adopted as a buddy to Canyon, who recently crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Chase tried to dominate Canyon, much to Canyon’s chagrin, but they eventually became best buddies. Now Chase has to figure out what Chief is all about and vice-versa. They have both been posturing but it didn’t take long before Chase started barking at...

#3357 Cleopatra

Cleo from Cairo is learning to sit and to ring the bell by the side door to go outside. We’re happy to report she has had no accidents in the house. We’re working on ‘down’ as she can be a bit overzealous at times with certain people. She’s great on a leash and eagerly tries to meet all the squirrels in her neighbourhood.

#3180 Teddy

Teddy and I bonded almost immediately ~ it was a meant-to-be connection. Teddy loves me, his dad, but takes time to warm up to new people. He does settle once he is given time and he’s also not great with other dogs but together, we are Batman and Robin. I have been very active in my life as a gliding...

#1932 Zoey & #1933 Cali

These two senior citizens are absolutely amazing! Believe it or not, Zoey is 19 and Cali is 13. These two GR superstars were being fostered together by a fabulous couple who really took care of these initially overweight, timid Goldens. They continued getting comfortable with us and they are two happy-go-lucky, loving, confident souls. Zoey is almost completely deaf these...
