Profile


Wendy is a lovely petite long hair cream female rescued from the streets of Turkey. Wendy learns very quickly and is already this first day going outside and playing with the other dogs all by herself. She will need some training on walking with a leash and hopefully an increase in appetite. Wendy is very picky eater so far with food and takes a long time to eat-possibly the change to American food. She does like cooked chicken liver, cheese, raw hides, chews on bones but won't eat rice or eggs and barely nibbles on dog food. I did find one dog food she likes but she doesn't eat very much of it and she seems she could gain some weight, but will see after the vet visit.

She finally did her business outside the first night on arrival. She also looked toward the east this morning and did some barking and a few howls. Possibly to let other dogs in Turkey know she has found a safe and wonderful place in Ragom in America. I have included a picture. She did bark a little at her reflection in the patio door too.

Wendy is more of a submissive female and will roll over for belly rubs and loves pets and attention. She did reprimand my other foster (Rusty) that she needed space by a growl and a snap after he was constantly almost on top of her after arrival. He did take the hint and waited for her to relax and everything is fine with them as you can see in photo after a run both are relaxing. Rusty will also eat dirt sometimes and she is watching wondering what this crazy American dog is doing in another picture.

Wendy loves to run outside and play with Eamon the other foster in my care and have included pictures the playing chase.

    Wendy came to America for a new life through RAGOM and she met her forever family and will now be residing in the Roseville area. I know her new family will shower her with love and give her a wonderful home. It was a wonderful experience to foster Wendy and help her find a forever home, I wish you many happy years in your new home.

    Since being put up for adoption, Wendy will soon meet her first possible adopter after they fill out their application, have a home visit, and come visit with her. They sound like a great fit for Wendy. The family has had other mixed Golden retrievers and are excited to see Wendy. I am hoping this will be a new beginning for her in a new country filled with love. Thanks all the offers for Wendy.So keep watching to see if all goes well for Wendy.

    Hooray, Wendy is now available for all those who are waiting for a dog for their forever home. There has been a few changes as Wendy no longer needs another dog in the home. She does need a fenced yard as she can run very fast, when she wants too. She would also like play time with another dog from time to time, maybe at a dog park or a friends place.Wendy is eating pretty regular now. She still takes a long time to eat-30 minutes and if she is not hungry she will just lay by the dish. She will...

    Wendy would like to update everyone on how everything is going with her. She did go to the Eden Prairie library when the Turkey Dog Presentation was done there for her first outing. She did well at first with meeting the other dogs and people and when more people came out she became scared and had to have another dog help get her back to the vehicle for the trip home. Once inside the vehicle, she was in a safe place with her other companion dogs and settled down right away. S...

    Hello everyone. Wendy had her checkup on Friday late with the vet. She had her hind dew claws clipped as very long. Her ears, heart, lungs, teeth checked out. I was concerned about a spot on her belly that wouldn't go away and she checked it and said Wendy has a bacterial skin infection and has put her on antibiotics. So far I haven't seen any lessening of it. Her spay is tentatively set for April 26th. Wendy weighed 47 pounds, a lot more than I thought with her eating habit.Wendy...
