Princess

Profile

June 12, 2011

Princess arrived at her foster home mid-afternoon on Saturday. She met the gang and has settled in quickly. It's amazing that she's 12 years old because she sure doesn't act like it. She is a smaller golden and except for a graying face, she has no gray in her coat. She is thin (not too thin) and seems very agile. She does stairs easily too. She ate dinner nicely. She met the cat (also named Princess) and I don't think she'd ever seen a cat before. She was VERY interested...but Princess the cat set her straight and all seems fine as I write this. Princess fits in perfectly with my two goldens....both are darker red goldens, weighing around 55 pounds. I will know her weight after our vet visit (yet to be scheduled) but I'd bet she weighs a bit less than my guys, but not much.

Princess the dog was an owner surrender and seems to have none of the issues that so many of RAGOM's dogs have. I've left her alone (with the other dogs) for about 45 minutes and all was well when I returned. She seems to be perfectly housebroken and so far, has not tried to get on any furniture. She most likely won't be home alone longer than four hours without a break so I won't know for sure, but her surrendering owner says she can go all day without incident.

I'll update again as we get to know her. Also I will work on getting better photos, the camera battery was low and has now been recharged.
