Today is our baby's 10th Birthday

9 years and 1 month ago she was destined to euthanasia.
We were the last "try" the local shelter did.

They called us (knowing we did Golden Rescue work) and asked if we could just give a try and see what is up with this wild rambunctious pup.
"No commitment, just try"

At the time she was only 11 months old and had been in 5 homes already!
Such a problem child that the local Animal Control officer pulled her from the shelter to give her one last try at her home.
She was the one that called us.

I've had dogs, cats etc my whole life and have never had one so attached to me as this one.

We tell all the newcomers to the Golden world (all large dogs included) that every day past 10 is a blessing. So starting tomorrow she gets an extra hug every day.

Happy Birthday Molly!

Our English Setter, Katie will be 10 on March 27th...can't believe how fast time has gone. She has been on the road with us from day one.. a 7 month old pup when we started. Already started the daily hugs and kisses...not wanting to think about how much time is left...:(

Happy Birthday, Molly! All dogs are good, but it takes work. The loyalty and devotion that animals give in return is priceless! 😋 😋

Happy Birthday Molly, I know what you mean Duane Hanna is 11 and that is very unusual for a Rottie she gets hugs and kisses multiple times in a day for tomorrow may never come. They are a big part of our lives and steal your heart without you even knowing it.

Duane/Deb, we had the pleasure if meeting 3 of your fury companions over the last few years. They made us see the enjoyment of having them as a part of the family.
