Tera 13-159 [1]

Each and every foster has been special and unique, each with their own quirks, but I can honestly say we have never had one that has been this easy, this quiet or this sweet. Tera is one special girl. She came from a family that could not take her with them when they moved and she needed some vet attention. We stepped up and said, vet attention ... that’s not so bad, we’ve had lots of fosters that needed some type of vet attention. What we found out is that Miss Tera had an obstructed salivary gland under her chin and it needed to be removed. Needless to say, she handled the gland removal and her spay surgery without issue. Once she has healed from all this you won’t even know anything was wrong, removing a gland will have no impact on her life.

Tera is a 7 year old purebred Golden weighing a whopping 86.4 pounds. Her ideal weight should be around 60-65 pounds, so if you’re looking for a perfect walking partner ... you found her. Tera loves, loves, loves her people of all ages. She has adjusted very well to her new diet instead of being allowed to feed all day. Tera is house-trained and does not require a kennel or fenced yard. Because of her throat surgery she cannot wear a collar, so she has been switched to a harness. If we are on the side of our yard that is not fenced we simply attach a leash to her harness and she pretty much stays on the patio. If she does wander off, which isn’t often, she comes right back when called. Tera came into our house of two resident dogs without a single issue (I don’t think that has ever happened for us).

Tera loves her toys but destuffed 6 toys in less than one hour, which keeps foster mom busy with a needle and thread. It is not very often you will see her without a toy in her mouth. She has learned to play tug-of-war and is very content to chew on a hard bone for hours. Tera has also come to appreciate the comfort of a couch ... ahhhh life is good!

So, what would be required in Tera’s forever home .... LOVE Tera would fit into any household. We don’t have cats but she lived with a cat in her previous home.
