Male Mix
Hi! My name is Fritz. Nice to meet you! AND I would love to be your Good Boi!
I am an interesting case, I would prefer a home with no other dogs where I get all the love as my life has been hard. Love a Golden Rescue would also be willing for YOU to be a permanent foster in my final years since I am already 10 years old. (I hear they will pay my bills). Yes, I know I don’t look very much golden retriever-y (the vets I’ve seen think I am more Great Pyrenees), but I definitely have the beautiful coat you “need” in your life!
I have a very sad story, so I am ready for my happily ever after with YOU. You see, I lived on a farm with my elderly owner for most of my ten years (I’m a senior, I know, but I act more like a puppy!), and the last few years as he fought dementia, he didn’t take very good care of me. His grandson is friends with my foster mom, and when my original owner passed away, she agreed to help her friend, so she asked LAGR to accept me into rescue. Thankfully, they agreed, and I have been with my foster mom since February.
My foster mom is nice, and she loves me, but she has a bunch of beagle brats and a basset hound at her house (with whom I get along), but she would love to see me get my furever home and open up space for another foster needing help like I did! She has helped me learn manners, to go potty only outside, and to be nice with other dogs.
She just recently took me to the groomer, and now I am more handsome than ever! I mean, just look at me! I’m not perfect—-I have arthritis in a knee and hip, which doesn’t slow me down much. Also I have heart worms, (my first owner did not give me preventative like he needed to) which is another reason I need a quiet home during my treatment.
I just know I can be the goodest boi for you if you’ll give me a chance. Please adopt me and let me live my twilight years with my own family!
Love,
Fritz-ee (my foster mom calls me that sometimes)
