As Good as Gold came to my rescue when I was at a shelter. They took me right to the vet who said I was very healthy and acted much younger than my reported age. I have the sweetest personality and am always wagging my tail. I don’t let my age slow me down and I am drawn to any activity going on around me that seems exciting.
I love to join my foster siblings for daily walks filled with interesting scents and the opportunity to locate the local rabbit population. I might not be as fast or quick as the others, but my enjoyment comes at my own pace!
At day’s end I find that foster mom’s bed is a preferable place to relax than on my security blanket placed on the hard floor. Because my hips don’t always cooperate in executing a jump onto the bed, my foster mom obtained some stairs to make ascending to a cozy spot easier for me. Now I can enjoy an afternoon nap or cuddle with my foster mom whenever the mood strikes me!
My wild puppy days are over and I am calm, well behaved and my manners are impeccable. I love being treated like royalty. My life changed from the doldrums to sunshine in a few short weeks and I am very content now. The only thing missing is a permanent “palace” where I can continue to be treated like a princess by a furever family I can call own. Are you willing to share your life with me?

MEET DULEY
Are you looking for a sweet senior to be your companion? I am almost 11 years old and I have spent my life creating lots of golden puppies. Now that I am with As Good as Gold I have hit the retirement jackpot, I am learning what it’s like to have the golden life. I enjoy running around my foster home’s fenced in yard and checking out all kinds of smells now that I have the freedom to be a normal dog.
When I first got to my foster home, I was nervous because I was not used to being in a house. I chose my safe place in the laundry room and any time I felt uneasy, I was happy to retreat to my space to relax. I have come so far in my foster home and am slowly building up my confidence. I love collecting toys and bringing them to my safe place.
I love all people, kids and dogs and love any attention you will give me. I may be a senior, but I certainly don’t act like one. I have great energy and act like I am 5 years old. I have learned to walk on a leash, enjoy going with you for rides in the car, although I need a little boost to get in.
I will need a fenced in yard in my new home since I am still getting used to so many things. It would be great to have another dog in my new home, but it’s not necessary.
I have beautiful, creamy locks of hair and a wonderful plume of a tail. My gentle face and happy eyes will melt your heart. I am ready to move right in!
