AJ is a wonderful, wonderful 10 year old male golden whose owners were moving out of state and believed the move would be “too much for him”. AJ came to us pretty healthy…. BUT he did have some of the worst ears we have ever seen due to pure owner negligence. There was so much scaring he could barely hear. He was in pain and although we had him on lots of meds and daily ear flushes, he had to have both his ear canals removed. He is now deaf but no longer be in pain. AJ doesn’t have to hear to love you and now he just needed some love in return. No dog should be abandoned by his family, let alone a 10 year old boy as wonderful as AJ. But sometimes things work out for the best because now AJ has a terrific mom and dad that plan to give him all the attention and care he missed out on over the past ten years. AJ’s family was looking for an older mellow dog to snuggle with and go for long strolls. When they heard about AJ they were knew they were destined to be his forever home. Mom and dad have already surrounded AJ with lots of new toys and yummy treats. Sure, he can’t hear how many times his new parents praise him, but it is clear that AJ finally knows he is loved and will never be left alone again!
