Sugar 06-552 [1]

12/27/06: With the help of many RAGOM volunteers, Sugar arrived at her foster home from a Humane Society in South Dakota. Sugar was surrendered to the Humane Society by her previous owner due to a divorce. She had lived with children and another dog and did fine. She cannot be in a home with cats. Her former family said Sugar needs someone that has the time to play with and train her. Sugar is a beautiful dog and has obviously been well taken care of.

At her foster home, Sugar met the two resident dogs without any problems. She has been busy playing with toys and the other dogs. Sugar is about 60 pounds and is a typical young Golden that wants to explore and play. Anything that Sugar finds on the floor, on the Christmas tree, or outside will be considered a toy. She will be one year old on December 31st. Sugar is up to date on her shots and is spayed. She has been diagnosed with hip dysplasia and is currently taking Rimadyl for pain. Sugar will be going to the vet this week, so we will know more about the hip dysplasia after her appointment.
