Alexander passed on today just hours before he was to go to his foster family. He started having difficulty breathing and a sonogram revealed he had cancer. He was suffering and we helped him cross the bridge. BACKGROUND: Meet Alexander, a senior male golden who was picked up as a stray. His age is estimated to be between 8-10 years of age. You wouldn’t think he was in good health looking at him but he is.. he just has a skin infection and acute allergies which we hope meds will clear up his skin which has turned black. Alexander is a proud dog who needs a guardian angel about now. No one was going to rescue him so we went to meet him and we couldn’t let him be put down. All he needs is some TLC and someone who will give him the love and care he needs. We believe if he finds that angel, he will be a beautiful golden in about 6 months time. At this time of year, please open your heart for Alexander.
