Profile


8/9/06: "Reddi" is a calm, petite, 45-pound, dark red unspayed female who is approximately one year-old. She turned up as a stray at a farm just before the 4th of July, and was connected with a woman who was looking for a Golden Retriever to train as a service dog for herself. It turns out that Reddi was too small/short to act a service dog for the woman, so she contacted RAGOM to find her a good home.

Unfortunately, Reddi tested positive for Heartworm and has not yet begun her treatment. I will be verifying the information with one of RAGOM's vets, hopefully this week; she will need a clean bill of health before her spay surgery can occur.

She is a wonderful dog with some good manners on her; she does great with people, children, dogs, and cats. She was very calm in stores she visited, was calm at the vet's office, took treats well, whined at the door to go out for duty breaks, sat on the car seat/bench nicely during rides and loaded and unloaded nicely. She does pull on leash when walking (quite hard), but I used a Gentle Leader and she did quite well with it on. She really loves her tennis balls- loves to tease you with it as well as shred it.

We'll write more as we get to know Reddi better, but the way she's calmly made herself at home in the last hour has me convinced that she is one Sweet Golden Girl.
