Abby (Goldie 08-458) [1]

It's time that I let everyone know about me. I am Goldie, but I do not answer to that. (I have not been called that for very long.) I answer to Peanut more often. That is what my FM (foster mom) calls me since I am a small girl. I am thought to be about 2ish, I weigh 47.2 lbs., and I am not even 20 inches tall. Hence, the Peanut name.

I had a bad start to my life with either being in a kennel all day to have puppies, or tied out to a tree 24/7. NOT the life a Golden should be living or any dog for that matter. I was rescued by a nice lady who eventually got me into RAGOM and in the bestest foster home. WOW......I didn't know life could be sooooo good! FM has a question though. She wants to know how a dog that has lived all of its life in a kennel or tied up to a tree 24/7 knows about the joy of playing with a tenny ball or playing with woobies (dog toys).

I caught on REAL quick that these are pretty good things to play with and I love to squeak them. I am crate trained and that is where I sleep at night and when FM has to be away from home. In fact when I don't have to be in my crate FM leaves the door open and that is where she can find me a lot of the time. FD (foster dad) gave me a bath and boy do I feel sooooo much better. FM had to cut the feathering off of my tail bacuase they were full of mats that she could not get out. But when my feathering grows back out I will have a very pretty tail.

I pretty much ignore the cats and I love to play bitey face with my fur sisters and brothers. I play more with one of my fur sisters than the other one or my fur brothers, but I do like to run, run, run with all them when we are all outside. I follow FM around all the time and I love to be petted and loved on, but you would too if you had very little human contact ever since you were born. I am a cutey pa tooty, but don't let that fool you because I can be mischievous.

Oh no....not that cute little thing, you say. Oh yes, I can be. You do not leave ANYTHING out on the counter where my little self can reach up on the counter and steel it. But, she is so short, you say. Oh, don't let that fool you either, because I can get up there and reach it. FM does not know how I can make myself stretch that far, but I can. When I do look on the counter to see if there is anything that has MY name on it and FM catches me, I am learning NO, OFF. Oh, and if there is anything in the sink that I find that has my name on it, I will steel it right out of the sink! There are just so many new things that I have not seen before and I need to check it all out. :)

We are working on "sit", but FM has to help my bottom to sit a lot of the time. If you think I would REALLY like to be a part of your family and you have another fur baby at home, please let Placementragom [dot] org know.
