Pope is a one year old not-so-golden.  He is a happy-go-lucky, playful boy, who also loves to snuggle.  He fancies himself quite the hunter, and loves to chase birds, squirrels, butterflies, crickets and frogs.  He will sit in the back yard and watch the birds and squirrels in the trees.  He likes kids, and loves to play with the two goldens in his foster home.  His forever family should have an endless supply of Nylabones or other sturdy chew toys.  Ideally, they’d walk him often, and/or have another dog for him to play with. 

 

If I had written this bio yesterday, I could have honestly said that he doesn’t chew on anything inappropriate.  He has discovered my slippers though, so I can’t say that.  The good news is that he likes lefts just as much as rights, so they have been pretty evenly chewed. 

 

Before Pope came to rescue, he was hit by a car (when he was about 8 months old).  He has a plate in his back leg, and there was also damage to his growth plate, so that leg is a little wonky, but it doesn’t slow him down in the slightest.  He has been evaluated and this is the way he will be.  We’ll share his x-rays and vet records with you if you’re the lucky family who decides to adopt Pope.  You honestly don’t want to miss out on this boy.  He is a gem of a puppy!!
