My name is Goldy!

Goldie survived a tough start. She was abandoned in an empty house with three other dogs and left to fend for herself for weeks, scavenging for food. Rescuers worked patiently to gain her trust, and when she gave birth in the abandoned house, she finally let them bring her and her puppies to safety.

Her pups have since been adopted, and Goldie—now spayed and thriving—has made tremendous progress.

She can be around other dogs in a fenced yard and does great playing with them - she loves to rough and tumble with her friends. She can still be protective of her food with dogs only - no issues with humans whatsoever. A home without another dog would be fantastic, but one where she can still socialize would be amazing.

Because she’s still learning to feel safe, new or stressful situations should be introduced slowly, and she’ll need to be watched closely around food.

Goldie is ready for a home that understands her past and can give her the steady, loving future she deserves.

Goldie is going to spend a week with a trainer in New Hampshire upon her arrival in New England on 12/13, who will give us a good sense of what this dog needs to succeed completely!
