Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We have a transport trip on 2/25/24 to Roseville, Ca. and Medford OR. And would love to add her to our trip if we don't find a local adopter before then. We will be asking for transport costs to be divided between all adopters in route to help alleviate the total costs involved.)
Meet Valentina. She is a purebred golden red female Golden Retriever. She is a smaller girl weighing in at , and yes she is full grown and at a healthy weight. She is 1.5 years of age. She is spayed, current on vaccines, and microchipped.
She is house trained, and goes outside to use the restroom when she needs to. She is crate trained, and currently sleeps in a crate at night, and sometimes naps in there during the day. She has great house manners, so she has full roam of the house during the day as she please. She is wonderful with all dogs and cats alike. She has a super sweet, docile, loving, beautiful, temperament ❤️ She is everyone's friend. She LOVES to greet new faces, as she is a socialite by nature 💕 She is also leash trained, and loves her walks. Loves to run and play in the yard, and is an absolute water lover ☺️
She rides phenomenal in the car, and really enjoys road trips of any length. Her happy place is being with her person/family no matter where that may be. She is NOT super high energy either, and has a great on and off switch, and can be just as happy laying at your feet, or near by while you are working, or doing things around the house.
She truly is a gem, and a friend YOU want to call yours ❤️
Now that you have learned all about what makes her SPECIAL, I can only do what I know how to do best and that's pray the rest of her history will be something her new family/person can commit to, as she deserves a wonderful new beginning 💕
We had X-rays done on both bag legs/knees/hips.
One of her legs is completely okay, the other one is showing mild hip dysplasia and mild arthritis due to an old injury her past owners failed to treat when it happened. They were honest with me about her past, and their negligence in caring for her, and out of precaution we made sure our vet did a full set of X-rays. Nothing is broken, hence nothing can be fixed. All we can do moving forward is have pain medication on hand to help with any type of pain/discomfort she may develop over time.
My vet is confident that she will live a long happy fulfilling life regardless of the x ray findings, and with hip dysplasia being common in the golden retriever breed as is, hers is very mild and may very well remain that way the rest of her life.
If you have been waiting and praying for the perfect girl, and yes, to me she is still very much perfect 😍 then she is an answer to those prayers 💝
Her adoption fee in total is broken down on her listing under "available for adoption," on our website at breadoflifek9refuge.org
It covers her spay, vaccines, chip and registration, exam, x rays, time and care since with us, and her training we have personally done with her here.
Photos will be posted soon ❤️
