Jake, a 2 year old male golden, was given up because his family just couldn’t give Jake any attention — they had too many other priorities. Jake was confused and told us he wanted a family with kids. He loved kids! Jake came to us exceptionally trained – knowing all of his commands. Jake had to be shaved because his coat was so matted. Seems no one ever brushed him, but even shaved, he was still a very handsome and charming guy. We just knew someone was looking for a dog just like him. And, we were right. In a few days we heard from a family who had lost their beloved golden and were ready for another. So, Dad came to meet Jake and within a few minutes, Jake had wrapped Dad around his big paws. Mom and the boys thought Jake was perfect too! They were ready for him to come home — and he did just that. Today, Jake is part of this wonderful family and loves it. He has two very special boys as his best friends. They are blonde just like he is so they all shed the same color hair! (Mom likes that) They give him bellyrubs everyday which makes Jake laugh. He also loves his long walks in the neighborhoods and he loves birthday parties. Jake is always going to celebrate his “Gotcha Day” on his oldest boy’s birthday. He likes the idea of sharing his big day with his best bud. Jake actually smiles now and we know he and his wonderful new family will “live happily ever after”. Shine On, Jake.
