Hi everyone! I’m Honey, a six-year-old Golden mix who is all heart. My first family and I were doing great until a baby arrived and I got nervous about all the crawling and toddling. Everyone agreed I’d be happier in a calmer house, and I think they were right. These days I’m with a foster family who call me a beautiful soul, and I’m not one to argue!

They also say I’m smart and funny, and I’d have to agree. I thrive on love, and if you offer me a treat or a cuddle, I’ll take the cuddle about half the time. My most prized possession is a stuffed coffee cup that goes everywhere with me. (A penguin once lived with me for a couple of weeks, but he did not survive my affection.) I will walk as long as you will, and the longer we go, the harder I pull, so I’m ready to learn some leash manners. At night I snooze in my own bed, unless something outside needs a firm announcement. I take my job as head of security seriously! When my people head out, I wait in the kitchen like a lady, and when they come home, I greet them like they’ve been gone for years.

New people make me shy, and I may bark a bit before I decide you’re alright. Take me for a slow walk and I’ll come around, I promise. I’m happiest with grown-ups and a steady routine, so teens and up are my speed, since little kids make me nervous. I get along fine with polite dogs, but cats are off my list. Ask the ones on my fence!

I’m hoping for calm, dog-savvy grown-ups who will let me take my time, and a bigger yard would let me patrol in style. I have a lot of love saved up, so come say hello, nice and slow
