Shadow Gil is a 1 year old purebred male golden retriever who was dropped off at the Gilmer County Animal Shelter by his elderly owner who could no longer care for him nor handle a 1 year old golden. The shelter director called us immediately because she knew we would help! The staff loved him very much and instead of putting him back in the kennel they let him hang out in the office. He was desperate for love and attention like most goldens and he was also very confused. Now his confusion is quickly slipping away. This wonderful lovebug is home with his new family. Mom and dad have had lots of experience with big dogs and came to AGA with a big thumbs up from our friends at Canine Assistance. When they met Shadow Gilmer and knew their search was over. Now Shadow will live a very active lifestyle with his new people walking trails nearby and swimming in a nearby lake! Mom is home every day so he will get lots of attention and he, like every golden, LOVES attention. He will also be living with a cat and hopes to even give the kitty some slobbery kisses.
