Goldie 06-257 [1]

6/19/06: Well, Goldie arrived with the other 4 Iowa boys safe and sound yesterday evening. Goldie is a 6 month old intact male, beautifully dark, seems to be house trained (no accidents yet!) and is only 30 lbs right now...definitely could stand to gain a little weight! Anyway, he was fantastic on the way down to my house from MPLS, and he slept almost the entire way...not to mention sleeping though the night! Today was VET DAY! He got his vaccs updated, had his physical, and my vet said he's in fantastic shape for being stuck in a shelter for a month. The only thing that showed up was round worm, and he started his treatment for that tonight. I cannot believe how well mannered and CALM this little boy is! He met a lot of new people at the vet clinic, and just sat/laid there while people smothered him with pats and told him how cute he was. Well, that's about it for now. More will come as I get to know this wonderful little boy better!
