Colby 04-208 [1]

Well, by now you may have run into Laurin 04-207 [2], the other honorary Golden I'm fostering while you have been checking out the RAGOM website. I have the best of both worlds in being able to foster another honorary Golden (Chocolate Lab) named Colby. He is just a big old lunk of a boy. He is very good natured. He is a typical retriever in that he will fetch and bring it right back to you to throw for him time and time again.

He is a big ole boy, probably around 90 pounds or so.  He does not jump up on people, but he is so big he may knock you over (Just Kidding!).  He is AKC registered, micro chipped, neutered, current on heartworm, and all vaccinations.  He travels well in a car.  Does not bark.  Does not bother my cats or small dogs.  He has lived with many Labs and Goldens and gets along with all of them. Two of the neighbor girls helped me give him a bath and he loved being around both of them.  He does pull a bit when on a leash, but a few obedience lessons will make that a distant memory.

He will do well in a household that has older children and adults that will give him the attention he so much deserves.  He is very much a people dog and would love to be with you wherever you may go.  He has the potential of being a wonderful therapy dog, given the proper training.  His hips have been x-rayed and sent in to OFA.  They said he has mild displaysia in both hips, but believe you me, he has tons of good solid years left in him!!!

He loves swimming in a kiddy pool, haven't had a chance to take him to a lake, but I'm sure he would be the perfect addition to any lake home!
