Sandy
Profile
September 20, 2012
We would like to introduce Sandy. She is a 7 year old Golden Retriever who loves to play Frisbee. She is a easy going girl who is a perfect house guest. She gets along fine with our resident dogs but she is not playful with them and prefers to be left alone and will give them a warning growl if the are getting to aggressive with her. For that reason we believe she would do best as an only dog. She walks well on the leash and rides in the car well but does drool some.
Some notes from her previous owner:
- She will guard her food, but we noticed she eats quickly and does take treats from our hands without a problem.
- She loves cats, but we have not tested it.
- She will get into smaller trash cans.
- She lived in a in home daycare and got along with all ages but will give a growl if they got too aggressive with her.
- She lived on 20 acres and swam daily in the river on the property.
She loves attention from people and gives out a cute squeak when getting loved up. For the most part Sandy likes to lay around but once she is outside with a Frisbee she is like a puppy and can catch a good throw. She sleeps on the floor in a dog bed next to our bed and goes to the door and lets us know when she needs to go out. Sandy weighs 75 pounds, has a Lipoma on her chest that needs to be monitored and has a tick-bourne disease called Anaplasmosis that she is being treated for with antibiotics that will be done in about a week. Sandy will be at Goldzilla, if Sandy seams like a dog you would like to meet, please contact your placement advisor.

Hooray! This is Sandy 12-305 that became a part of our family in September. She had been a loved dog, but because of family circumstances came into the RAGOM family. We have been so blessed, she has been the perfect addition to make our little family complete. My husband and I are retired and have 2 year-old Jackson and now he has a sister playmate.

Hooray! This is Sandy 12-305 that became a part of our family in September. She had been a loved dog, but because of family circumstances came into the RAGOM family. We have been so blessed, she has been the perfect addition to make our little family complete. My husband and I are retired and have 2 year-old Jackson and now he has a sister playmate. We laugh at their antics 10 times a day. Not only do we love her, but every one of our extended family thinks she is the sweetest and probably favorite member of the entire family!
The very, very "bestest" quirk of Sandy's is her out-of-this-world love of her Frisbees! She would play all day or until either she or I dropped. Not only does she love her Frisbee, but she is really good at catching it and is pretty impressive for an almost 8 year old pupper.
Sandy is learning to "go to her place" and stay and that really annoys her, but she is starting to co-operate. She is definitely alpha dog, which is a good thing. She has been a good teacher to Jack.
Even though we are a foster family, we have to thank RAGOM for all the wonderful and dedicated ways they have enriched so many lives, both human and all the beloved "babies"!
