    Ah! Golden Sunshine!
    My Logan didn't know how to play either, go figure. Anyway, I sat in front of her and rolled a tennis ball. When she sniffed it or touched it I praised her. I also had to show her "squeekie" toys cause she was petrified and wouldn't go near them. It took about a week, but now, shoot, you can't get one away from her!
    Thank you so much for fostering him! I'll bet he'll become an excellent ball catching/couch potato in no time! {HUGS to you!}



    I've been Boooo'd!

    Kenny is so handsome. My sister in law has a golden, his name is Kalipso he looks just like Kenny. He has the gray on his face also. He is such a sweet boy. It sounds like Kenny is too.

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    I am in love with him, Kim.

    You keep on loving him, just like you do, and that boy is going to be fine, even if he has to go through heartworm treatments (which I hope he doesn't).

    Have a great evening!

    Congratulations! don't know how they could decide to leave him behind, but their loss is your gain! Kenny looks so sweet, I love his white paws & frosty face. He looks like he's adjusting well, too - great smile!

    I just read your thread in Cat General, Kim. WOW! You family has expanded a lot in the last few days!!!

    I hope that Kenny is still fitting in just fine. Nothing better than a Golden boy, for sure!!!!

    Kenny is a beautiful boy. He looks and sounds like such a sweetheart.

    If I live to be 100, I'd never understand some people. How in the world can
    people manage to turn off love for such a sweet soul.

    He sure is a handsome fellow. Congratulations to both of you for finding each other. Is he a foster, or is he here to stay?

    I took him in with the agreement that if my yard was too small for him, or he just wasn't happy here for some reason, then I would find him a wonderful home. However, it's looking pretty solid like he's here to stay!

    at his age - he isn't going to need much yard - a nice walk or a romp in a fenced in area once in awhile should suffice. I'm not sure if you will try to house break him to bring him inside but if you do good luck with it!
    Once he learns what a tennis ball is it should be fun!
    Keegan has hip dysplasia in both hips worse on the right and has torn both ACL's that we healed up holistically so she doesn't get much running time as much as she loves it - she just doesn't know she needs to sloooww down. She chases the ball full bore and then slams to a stop. She did that once with my parents at their cottage and she slammed into a tree! They had to drive all over creation to find a vet b/c she wouldn't put any weight on one of her front legs and when they did there was a cat in the waiting room and she PULLED my dad to the front of the waiting room -which never happens!

    keep us updated!
