Leia GH-1317

Meet beautiful and loving 8-year old Leia. Look up the definition of a Golden Retriever in the dictionary and you’ll see Leia’s picture! A true velcro dog who is just trying to get some love. She came from a family of two smaller dogs and several cats. A divorce prevented her from staying in an apartment that did not allow large animals.  More details follow below.

This sweetheart weighs in at 98 pounds (she needs to drop some weight), and is getting lots of exercise in her forever home. Leia is a very affectionate and loving dog.  When she sits or lies next to you she expects to be pet non stop! It took Leia just a short few days to adjust to her foster family and their three Goldens. She loves to instigate a chasing game, and when they try to get her running, she accepts the challenge. This is all done outside in a fenced in environment. Due to her weight, her stamina is not the best. She can keep up with her foster brothers and sister (two males ages 10 and 5 and one female age 2), but needs to take frequent rests during play time. She rarely barks, but when the others bark at the neighbor dogs, she will give out a gentle bark.  She loves to take naps with the pack and is allowed to rest on the sofa with the other dogs.

Leia fits in perfectly and is so happy in her Forever Home!
