Kaylee 09-407 [1]

Welcome to the Ragom family Kaylee! Kaylee is almost 9 months old (DOB:1/29/09), she is a golden mix and I would believe she will always be a smaller dog, as of now she is weighing in at 34lbs.

We do not know a lot about Kaylee's background as she was brought into the Golden Valley Humane Society as a cruelty case, along with other dogs that were kept outdoors. As with cruelty cases you can suspect it was neglect, no human contact, possible like a PM puppy would be. She is not potty trained, does not know what stairs are, but doors have been ok, she ate some dinner but not all of it, she has been drinking out of the water bowls. She has her own kennel, and really seems to like it, or is willing to accept it.

She came into our home very scared and shy. As my daughter was not with me for this pick up, I was labeled the bad guy and Kaylee warmed up to my daughter. I finally found a smaller collar to get on her and to stay on her. Coming into this home with three larger GR's was very intimidating for Kaylee, but they all have accepted each other and seem willing to play.

She does not like going outside on the long line, that I use with all new dogs till we are all comfortable in the fenced backyard. Kaylee has become very daring and very curious, after dinner she started playing with the toys. She found two stuffed animals with squeakers inside of them, but did not know this till she was chewing on them and they squeaked. Was it funny to watch her! As I sit here writing this update, she is on the couch sleeping.

Kaylee's medical issues are very simple: she is positive for Lyme Disease, she is being treated for her rear leg lameness and you would never know this is what she has. My understanding is her meds run for about 10 days and then she will be done. But not to say that at some point in her life that she may not go temporarily lame again and need more meds.

Kaylee's needs for a furever home are: Physical fenced yard, another resident dog to show her how to become confident, and someone to love her.
