My name is Dylana and I am 6 years old. I am retired from breeding and learning the golden life. My foster mom has nicknamed me Ana. I am going to need a very special home. It will need to be a quiet and calm home with a confident mentor dog and a fenced in yard. Older kids would be better since younger ones may be more active and not understand my fears.
Many things scare me, for example a TV, and I am still trying to get used to them. My crate is my safe place to spend my day and I love to find lots of toys and will run out of my crate, grab a toy, and stash it in my crate with me. I love getting attention from foster mom when her dogs are by her too. They are helping me build my confidence. I will go for walks, but if I get scared, I like to hide between foster mom’s legs. She says my “on the go” safe spot is stuck to her legs. She thinks I am a true Velcro golden.
I am taking medications to help me with my fears, and I should remain on them for as long as necessary. Watching a dog like me take baby steps to confidence is very rewarding.
If you think you are the special family for me, please email adoptions@asgoodasgold.org.
