    My Golden Rescue Is Here!

    Meet Kenny! He is the BEST boy ever! How / why in the world his family could up and move to Florida and leave him is beyond me! He is so happy to be here and follows me everywhere! He is being a great boy in the house .... even though he has spent his entire life outdoors. I think he may become a house retiree!

    He is 7 or 8 years old, I hope and pray he doesn't have heartworms or anything else life threatening! I am taking him to my vet this week (if I can get an appt.) and get him a good and thorough checkup! Please pray that even after a lifetime outdoors he is heartworm negative! What are the chances would you all say? Should I prepare myself for the worst or not?

    Welcome to PT Kenny. He looks pretty healthy to me. If he has had heartworm for awhile the effects would be visible and you would know right away he would be acting sickly. Looks fine. We will wish him luck on a healthy check up!!!

    Kim, he is just beautiful.

    I love his darling white boots.

    Those boys can steal your heart, so watch out! Zipper had been cared for by the vet by the time he came to be fostered with us (and ultimately stay), and didn't have heartworms. I hope precious Kenny will be just as lucky.

    Please keep us posted and you let me know if you need anything. Goldens are the most gentle creatures I have ever met. Every one I have fostered has been a "good dog". I'm sure that Kenny will be too.

    Thank you for all the nice words! Tim, I appreciate your confidence in his health! I'm already in love with this guy, and would hate to hear any bad news now that he has a real chance at happiness!!!

    We just got back from a nice walk around the block! He was fabulous! I finally have a walking buddy!!!!

    He just looks at the cats and has no real response .... he's so calm! As far as toys, I don't think the poor guy has ever played with any! We threw him a ball and he ducked like "why are you throwing things at me?" Pretty sad, huh? So much for his being treated as a retriever!
