Available Goldens

Last Updated: 4 May 2008

The Golden Retrievers posted here are all new arrivals and current available Goldens. The dogs with a bio beside their picture also have contact information for their foster home listed. Please, only contact the foster home if you are already approved to adopt by GoldHeart. We encourage you to fill out an application so we can start qualifying you and your family so that you are ready to adopt when the right dog for you comes along.

Cody (GH-459)

Cody must be the most "VELCRO" Golden of them all. At eight years life experience, he came to us a bit portly at over 100 lbs. These days, due to regular walks and a improved diet, he has rediscovered his waist and feels like a million bucks. His coat is absolutely beautiful, deep golden and lucious. He loves to get brushed and gentle massages. Always underfoot, sits adoringly at your feet, thrives on feeling your caressing hands on him. He snuggles, but settles down to sleep beside your bed. His manners on leash, food/water related, kids, toys are simply impeccable. Walking him is an absolute pleasure. He loves seeing strollers with babies, will sit next to the stroller waiting for petting from all. Cody's hearing is acute, he still startles easily, even when loud noises come from the TV. He does enjoy laughter, kids voices and music. He likes walking in puddles, but is not

very enthused about rain or snow falling on his head; may balk at going for a walk when it's icy or raining, but will eventually agree to join you. Cody came to us with a history of epileptic seizures, approximately 6 mild episodes per year. He just had one a few days ago - they truly are mild seizures. Vet agrees that unless these seizures become more severe or more frequent, no medication is needed. Cody handles himself very well during and after. This is a truly Golden Gentleman, refined manners and no adverse behaviors at all. If he could talk, "Please" and "Thank You" would be regular parts of his vocabulary. This amazing Golden would love to join you in your low stress, calm family, where he would devote his life to give you his love as freely as he soaks up your affections. For more info please contact his foster mom at oramgest@verizon.net.

Jake (GH-477)

Jake is a 9 month old neutered male. He is a typical puppy, full of energy, play and love, with a sweet temperament. It is very apparent his previous home lavished much love and care on him. He is submissive to new dogs and even cats at first meeting. At his foster home, Jake loves playing tag and wrestling with his brothers – two goldens and two cats. He will need a home with the time and commitment to continue his training in obedience work and provide him with lots of opportunities to expend his energy. He is crate trained, at first he was crated at night, but now has free reign of the house. He has never had an accident inside. As with all puppies, he needs some supervising – he will carry shoes around and one unsuspecting tissue box was left decimated after a brief encounter! He plays catch with tennis balls and his tire chew toy. Jake loves people, young and old, and thoroughly enjoys being told he is a 'good dog' and having his belly rubbed. If you have been approved to adopt with GoldHeart, please contact Julie at jile2@msn.com.

Nica (GH-474)

Nica - GH-474

Hi my name is Nica. I am a 2 year old, laid back, very loving and snuggable petite (53lb) redhead. I am reliably housebroken and crate trained. (I will sneak up on the couch but when my foster mom says get down I hop right off. I have a foster brother and sister that I get along fine with. I like the cats too but sometimes I like to chase them. (Just want them to have their daily exercise too ya know!) I would never hurt them. I am working on my leash manners. I really seem to be in a hurry to get somewhere. I am working on my commands of sit, stay and come. I know these very well but sometimes have selective hearing. Maybe a new mom and dad could help me with this. Car rides are just okay. I won't jump up in the car because I'm kind of short so I need help getting up. If you have a completed home visit and are approved to adopt and would like to find out more about me please contact my foster mom Barb at babischaef@comcast.net .
