Sweetpea

Update: 01/18/10

Both Sweet Pea and Zappers are settled into their foster homes – many thanks to everyone  who so generously offered to take them in. They’ve been to the vet for check-ups, visited the beauty parlor, and embarked on their health & fitness programs – both Goldens are aiming to whittle their waistlines by a pound or ten, and Zappers has a date to get his choppers scaled and polished till they shine.  More updates coming soon!

Here are two wonderful, calm, loving oldsters who need foster families. Do you have room for Sweetpea, age 10, or Zappers, age 12? The two friends are coming to GRR from a loving owner who can no longer care for them. They’re both pretty Goldens and just as friendly as can be. They get along well with other dogs, and they like the family cats, too! Sweetpea is a curly blonde who adores children and “is just the sweetest dog.  All she wants is attention. Just happy relaxing at your feet.  Not high maintenance at all.” Red-headed Zappers is an all-around good old boy who is just as gentle and sweet as his friend Sweetpea. “At his age he still likes little walks—and he loves to fetch his big plastic ball.”

If you can give either of these super seniors a home—foster or forever—for the New Year, please e-mail surrender2@grr-tx.com. If you are already an approved GRR foster or adoptive home, that’s a plus, but if you aren’t, just visit http://www.grr-tx.com/adoption/index.html, read through the information, and fill out the adoption application (the applications for adopting and fostering are exactly the same). We will do our best to speed you through the process!
