A friend of mine from work, the one I mentioned in Dog Memorial awhile ago, has gotten another Golden! http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=50238
(the other girl mentioned in the thread also got a new border collie puppy about a month ago, his name is TJ for Topper Junior and he is adorable!!!)
She got him from Golden Endings in Columbus OH. His name is Rocky. He is 3 years old. So hopefully Keegan and Rocky can become good friends b/c they are about the same age. He has no fear of people, but is a little territorial with other dogs. He can barked and growled/snapped at Keegan but with her 'practice' of putting up with or taking care of "biznis" (:rolleyes: ) at the dog park, she didn't back down, and they got along just peachy. He did the same thing with one of our Dr's French Bulldogs but b/c of their size they didn't let them go too far. Keegan shouldn't have any trouble with him b/c she outweighs him!!!
There are some pics of me and Keegan, that I think turned out horribly. I look so bad. ickkky But don't look at me look at Keegan!!! I could use the excuse that I had just gotten up but I don't look bad from the neck up, its the neck down!!! :(
He had some allergy issues when the rescue got him so they shaved his back and it is growing back. She is going to take him to the groomer after a vet visit. The rescue said that when they got him his back looked like he had leprosy. :( Seeping open sores. :( But he is a sweetie. #'s 6,7, and 11 are my favorites. :)

Good choice. ;)

Awww, what cuties! Rocky's golden coloring looks similar to Daisy's. He's adorable!

I love that last picture of you and Keegan. :) We need more of her!

Staci, I know Keegan isn't Shaianne, but she is beautiful and so "Golden". I would love to meet her one day and have you meet my three Goldens and Murphy too. Seeing her with Rocky is great!!!! I think the pictures of you and Keegan, as well as your friend and Rocky, are all wonderful!!! :)

Your right Logan, Keegan isn't Shaianne, and I learned very quickly when I first got Keegan to not compare the 2. They each have/had a reason for being in my life and a very very special place in my heart. Shaianne was my soul dog/heart dog. Keegan is definatly a heart dog too, how can any of them not be? She's my velcro dog. She has brought me such joy and laughter and tears that I wouldn't trade her for anything! :)


And I would love to meet your crew too!!! :p
