Story
Meet Bradley, a true survivor with a heart full of love! He was rescued in January of 2023. When he arrived at the facility he was matted, stinky, and only weighed 30 pounds. His journey from being chained in a cold, lonely garage to a long term foster home is nothing short of miraculous. With some extra care, patience, and lots of love, he blossomed into the wonderful boy he is today.Bradley, is a Golden Doodle, approximately 3 years of age. Every morning, he greets his foster family with boundless excitement, ready to share his affection by nestling his head against their leg– his version of a warm hug. Initially unsure about being a family dog, Bradley found his way with the help of his 9-year-old lab brother, and he's now a playful and loving companion. Bradley is going to do best in a home with another dog. This lively pup adores playtime and long walks. While he has plenty of energy, he responds well to commands, recalls off-leash and sticks close to his beloved humans when meeting others on the trail. After his initial burst of enthusiasm, Bradley enjoys walking side by side with his favorite humans.Bradley has a unique way of showing his excitement – he nuzzles with an open mouth, a quirky habit that showcases his affectionate nature. He doesn’t really nip, but this should be considered, especially around small children.He is NOT cat friendly! Due to his previous life and breed, he does have a very strong prey drive. If he is on leash he will look and follow commands but given the opportunity he will chase prey. He wants nothing more than to love and be loved. He wants to be with people as much as possible but he has no concerning behaviors when left alone with other dogs.Throughout his nine months in foster care, Bradley has made remarkable progress. He now has a clean bill of health, weighs almost 60 lbs, is neutered and has gained his confidence.While it's difficult to say goodbye, his foster family knows he's destined to bring happiness to a new family. He truly deserves to be pampered and cherished every day for the rest of his life.
