Everyone tells me what a gorgeous girl I am, but somehow that does not fuel my self-confidence. You see, my first home was with a commercial breeder where I had little contact with anything outside my kennel. When I went to live at my AGaG foster home everything was new to me. There were so many scary sounds and sights that I just stayed curled up in the corner of the couch and only left my spot to eat when no one was looking. Over time, I learned a lot from watching and interacting with my three foster siblings. I am slowly discovering that being a dog can be fun! I enjoy being rewarded with something yummy called “cookies”, car rides, running at the park and cuddling with my foster mom before bed. I even wag my tail at the sound of my name!
I still need patient understanding of my shy and reserved demeanor, slow introductions to new situations, and a family who will delight in the progress I make in baby steps. My forever home will need a fenced yard and at least one other dog to be my mentor and help me expand my golden world. I may never be your typical golden with that social, loving personality, but I am still a very sweet girl. So, you get the hint, right? I am a fearful dog so if you have experience with dogs like me, that is a plus. Are you ready to help me continue my transition? Then I may be just the girl for you!

Meet Charming!
Hi, my name is Charming and I fit my name very well. I love everyone I meet. I love to go on walks and be outside. Running around in the yard is great fun. I am a 9 year old active boy outside and love to play catch with a tennis ball. But, inside I am a mellow guy and love to just lay around. The neighbor kids were so nice to me and gave me what is now my favorite toy. It’s a rubber squeaky pig that makes the coolest noises, it oinks! I love it!
A close second to running around the yard is going for car rides. I love to just look out the window and take in all the scenery. I like the adventure of going anywhere my foster parents want to go. I even like to go on boat rides! I love being petted, but what golden doesn’t? If you stop petting me, I will let you know that I would like more attention. I love being near you like a typical golden, and I am even a good snuggler.
I won’t be able to be in a home with other dogs or cats. I want to be your only companion and not share any attention with other four-legged creatures. If you are looking for an easy-going companion that will give you so much love in return for yours, then come and meet me and I can be your Prince Charming.
