Please give a big RAGOM welcome to returning boy Red. Red is an 8-10 year old PB Golden Retriever. Red was lovingly surrendered by his owner due to a change in their home situation. Red has been in foster care for a few weeks now and I sure do have a lot to share.
Red has been to the vet and had a full work up. On Red’s second day here he suffered from a seizure. Red had his RAGOM check-up at the vet plus blood work to check for an underlying cause to seizures. Thankfully Red’s blood work came back normal. I am very pleased to inform you Red has not suffered from any more seizures since being in foster care. The vet has determined it is no necessary to have Red on medication for seizures at this time and we will continue to monitor him. Everything else came back normal and the vet cannot believe Red is an 8 year old boy. He certainly doesn’t act like it.
Red is currently fostered with two male Golden Retrievers and two two-legged sisters. Red’s foster sisters are two and ten months old. He does exceptionally well with young children. Red has also been cat tested and doesn’t mine them one bit. Red is a very happy laid back boy. He does have a fence here in his foster home but I know he would do well with border training.
In Red’s day to day activities he loves to play with stuff toys and fetch with a tennis ball. Red acts much younger than his age and keeps up with my three and five year old goldens just fine. One thing is for sure Red has the golden nudge down to a “T.” He will literally sit holding paws with you for hours or curled up with his head on your lap. Red is a dog who loves to be on the bed. It is very apparent that this is something from his previous adoptive home and is important it be allowed in his forever home. Red loves to cuddle on the bed more than anything. A very unique trait to Red is he likes to carry random objects. Red will pick up shoes, shirts, socks, or kids toys. He doesn’t destroy them just likes to carry when he is excited to see you. Red does an excellent job at dropping whenever you ask him to give up the inappropriate item. Red knows many commands including sit, laydown, shake, come, & drop.
If Red sounds like the he might be a great fit in your home pleas let your placement advisor know so you can come meet one heck of an amazing boy.
