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.
