Maggie (Merci 07-347) [1]

Sponsored by: Dave and Erika Rustad Let me introduce you to Merci 07-347.  Although we have only been together 3 days, she has made quite an impression on all that have met her.  Merci was welcomed 'home' by the two resident Goldens, one just slightly taller than petite Merci and the other one has legs taller than Merci.  They proceeded to the fenced back yard and settled in.  A neighbor came over to the fence and Merci went over to give her a kiss.  Another came into the yard and she went to greet him.  Merci is extremely social and takes cues accordingly.The first night, I let her enjoy the entire house.  She had a few accidents and tried to help me clean up!  She is now confined to the kitchen at night and  quiet until morning when resident dogs get up.  On leash, she stays right next to me, whether alone or with the residents.  As Merci spent a few weeks in boarding, she had her medical needs addressed; spay, shots, etc.  Due to years of ear infections, she will need further  treatment.  As bad as her ears must hurt, Merci allows me to clean and treat them twice a day without any protest.Merci is not a typical puppy mill dog.  She is not shy and wags her tail non-stop.  She does not know how to play with dogs...yet!  I can see the Golden spark in her eyes slowly getting bigger.  It won't be long until she will be one of the very BEST Goldens, ever.
