Female, 6 years old
Charity came to us from a commercial breeding facility and is very, very scared of everything. She has been in a foster home for several months and has made some wonderful strides, but has a long way to go.
MUST HAVES IN A FOREVER HOME:
A stable mentor dog permanently in the home– one that she can follow and watch to know what things are ok and not scary.
A women only home. Charity is scared of men and the woman needs to be home more often than not.
A fenced in yard – Charity loves to roam around a fenced in yard, she is a different dog outside. She is getting better on a leash, but being a fearful dog, a fenced yard is helpful.
JEFFERSON'S JOURNEY
Jefferson was found out in the cold during one of this winter’s terrible freezes. Hungry and injured, and so sweet and friendly.
A Good Samaritan turned Jefferson into Animal Control, who then got in touch with As Good as Gold. Jefferson could not stop wagging his tail, but we all knew right away something was wrong. He was bleeding and needed immediate medical attention.
We had no idea how much pain Jefferson was in until the veterinarian examined him. This poor boy had been running with a shotgun wound!
The bullet was lodged so deep that the vet decided it was safer to leave it. Pulling it out might cause even more damage. He closed the wound and stopped the bleeders.
One week later, Jefferson was healthy enough to make the trip upstate to his new foster home. His journey to recovery was just beginning.
The shotgun wound needed constant monitoring to prevent infection while it healed. He was heartworm positive. And to top it off, Jefferson came down with kennel cough!
Jefferson’s golden personality shines through it all. Happy, sweet, and gentle, and sticking close to his foster family where he knows he is safe.
We could not have stepped in to save this handsome, loving guy without your support.
When all is said and done, Jefferson's medical procedures will cost nearly $2,000.
Now, because of you, Jefferson will finally be pain free and get his chance for a loving forever home.
Will you help us cover the vet bills so Jefferson and goldens like him receive the medical care they need to be healthy, happy, and safe?
