    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!

    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!}

    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.

    Kim thank you for posting pictures. You had made mention of him in another thread and I was wishing for photos and here they are. I can tell from his pictures that he is a real sweetheart. Best wishes for a good result when he is tested for heartworms. Oh, and by the way, I am not surprised that Logan found this thread. She has *golden radar.* LOL!

    Ripley and I send special greetings to AnnaBelle. We hope she is adapting to her disability and doing well.

    Pam, Kim gave me the "heads up", prior to bringing Kenny into her home, asking for "golden" advice. Somehow, I just knew that she didn't need any advice, as love and attention is all these precious dogs crave. Kenny is in good hands and that is what matters!!!!

    Kim, congratulations on getting Kenny!
    He looks like such a sweetie and I love his little white socks.
    I can see why you decided that he is a keeper and not a foster.

    Pam and Logan, actually I told Kim to PM Logan when I saw her thread asking for Golden advice before she got Kenny.
    I knew that Logan was an expert with the Golden oldies and would have great advice for Kim.
    RIP sweet Samantha
