Danno 12-399 [1]

Please welcome Danno to RAGOM!  Wow!  Can you say Merry Christmas FM?  This foster is a gift and he is going to make an amazing family pup for some lucky adopter!

Here is what I know so far... He has a great personality and is both playful and loving.  He will wrestle non-stop with his fur-brother, Clyde, and seems to love toys.  Cats are obviously new and interesting, and definitely worth some good cautious sniffs.  He jumps in the car with no prompting, and can be loose while driving without attempting to "help" the driver.  He greeted visitors with excitement but no jumping or barking, and seems to love the two-legged kids.  He can sit and lay down on command, an is thrilled to see the leash come out!  The back yard is great for running and racing, but he has shown no interest in approaching the 4 foot fence. So far, Danno has done all of his business outside, so I'm hoping we will be able to say with confidence that he is fully potty trained!  He knows his name and will come when he hears someone calling!

He is already neutered, is negative for parasites, and will get his full check up, microchip, and the rest of his vaccines tomorrow.  Danno weighs in at about 65 lbs and that seems to be about right for this handsome fella.  There are various age estimates on his paperwork.  One estimate says +/- one year, the other says 2-3 years.  We'll see what the RAGOM vet says tomorrow, but FM is guessing he is in the 1-2 year range.

We were told he was high energy, but I don't see anything out of the ordinary here for a young Golden Retriever.  Like most other Golden's his age, he will do best with some good exercise each day in the form of walks or runs, playtime with the tug toy or ball, or wrestling with other fur-butts -- if he is really lucky, all three!

This boy is going to go quickly, so if you are interested please let your placement advisor know!
