Sonic
Sonic is a Golden Retriever and Chesapeake Bay Retriever mix. He is a beautiful, smart, and loving boy that is very active and needs someone who can invest their time to play, exercise and train him. Sonic loves to play with the ball, loves to run and watching him run, his gait is amazing. He is a sweet boy that is a little fearful of other dogs. He is truly a diamond in the rough!
Sonic is looking for a dog savvy owner, one that will invest in him and give him what he needs. What will you get in return? An amazing dog that will bond with you and be your best friend for the rest of his life. Who could ask for more?
Rascal & Reese
Since we're offering you the opportunity to double your donations in our Double The Gold Challenge, we thought we'd offer you the opportunity to double the golden love too! If you think the love of one Golden is wonderful, why not consider doubling the love and adopting two!
This father and son pair are both VERY affectionate and just love people. Especially Reese, the dad, is especially affectionate. He will just lay in your lap and want love. Rascal, the son, is a little on the shy side, but once he gets to know you he is equally affectionate. Both are laid back and mellow, and are very bonded to each other. Rascal would like to eat the ducks in the pond, but other than that they are good on leash. Reese may have a touch of arthritis, but they do like their walks! They need a forever home where they can stay together. Come meet Reese and Rascal and double your golden love!
Well trained dogs are happier and more fun to be around!
