UPDATE 9/15/22: Vicki wants to be your golden child. This pretty, gold-coated Retriever mix is waiting to unlock her heart for the kind soul who wants to feel her love. This girl will lean against you for connection, look into your eyes for direction, and follow in friendship those she trusts. Sometimes, she just can’t help expressing her silly side with a few wiggles or leaps. And she’s been known to play an occasionally game of catch-me-if-you-can with a smile on her face. She’s typically playful and inquisitive.
Vicki can be unsure of other dogs and shy with strangers, and we don’t know what her experience is around children. Though her former caretaker said she was not good with cats, she ignored our resident caged cats when introduced to them. She has shown us that she is generally quiet, has good learning ability (learned “Sit” right away), and is quickly acquiring leash manners. This girl keeps her room tidy.
At about 46 pounds, Vicki is a compatible size for most households and has a medium energy level. To keep her golden fur shining, a quick weekly brushing should do the trick. When she wags her plumy, curled tail, you know you’ve touched the heart of her.
Three-year-old Vicki will likely do best in a calm home without children and without lots of comings-and-goings. She will do well with gentle, patient folks and may be compatible with certain dogs or cats.
