1/12/06: Let me tell you about Satchmo....he could have a name change his name should be Velcro....He is what is known as a gentle giant...He has had a full vet check and is in good shape....he is up to date on all his shots and is a really great big little guy...He has a lot to say and is very vocal especially when he and the pack are left alone ....he's the first to greet you and drag you around....He is older then we thought...he will be 2 in May. He gets along well with the other dogs...he doesn't much like the guinea pig..."he thinks he's a rabbit and would eat him"...he loves to play ball or tug of war or whatever it is that anyone is playing ...We have 3 other Goldens....1 of them is blind...Satchmo is very gentle with Brinkley...they get along famously...He is very bright...you can see him thinking ...we have him enrolled in Puppy classes and will start with him....He likes to walk..we do that daily and he knows where his leash is and will go and get it for you....doesn't like his gentle lead...has already ate one of those...but gets along well and is learning to heel on a short lead...just have to pay attention to him...loves to chase rabbits and squirrels...He loves Drew our 8 year old - talk about a boy and his dog....or dogs, but with 2 other Golden boys..Drew has no loss or lack of Golden love or noses to kiss.....

We have filled out an adoption application - he fits in here with the pack so well...and I think it would break his heart to have to leave here...along with all the rest of his new human family.
