My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

FOUND STARVING.. CALM, GENTLE & MLIDLY TIMID

UPDATE 3/4/21 (by Sigrid):

There is nothing so charming as a humble hound, and Goldie illustrates that image. The folks who found her starved and unhealthy said she never caused them a moment of trouble. At their home, she was exposed to other dogs and goats. These folks would have kept her but sadly could not.

When 7-year-old Goldie came to us, she was suffering with the tick-borne diseases of Lyme, Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis (not contagious to people) and was grossly underweight (only 32 pounds). While with us, she has only been calm, gentle, and mildly timid. When you look into her big doe eyes, you see bright specs of hope.

Now that Goldie has good nutrition and is on a proper antibiotic, her healthy bloom grows daily. So far, she has been a listener and not a talker.

When Goldie finds a nice sunny patch to lie in outside, her toast, white, and soot colored coat gleams with new vitality. She seems to really love laying in the sun too! The outlines of her ribs are quickly fading as she puts on weight.

Goldie has been respectful of dogs as she recuperates and she doesn’t think our cats are very interesting.

This docile hound will likely do best in a low-key home where she can find folks who will nurture her as she booms into a delightful southern belle.

NOTE: All animals are spayed/neutered as soon as practical after arriving at our facility unless there is a medical issue that may cause a delay or they are too young to be spayed/neutered.
