About DIEGO

Golden Retriever
Age: Senior
Sex: Male

Senor Diego is a 9.5-year-old Golden Retriever who has been through a lot. A family bought him in Izmir Turkey as a puppy and lived happily with them for almost eight years. When they decide to get a new puppy, they left out Diego on the street. When he found his way back to the only home he had ever known, the family then took him to the shelter and said that he belonged there. They also thought it best if he was put to sleep since he was unable to live on the streets and kept returning to their house. While at the shelter, he developed a bad case of the mange, with hair loss and open sores. Rescue volunteers removed him from the shelter and nursed him back to health. Diego is an adorable loving boy who enjoys other big dogs, kids, and adults while ignoring cats. He has good manners on leash, never pulling. While he walks a bit funny, the vet took x-rays and could find no problem. He has not neutered, but at his age is not considered advisable. He is up to date with all of his shots, and his blood tests are normal. He is active and will play, so be sure to get some tennis balls to play fetch with him. Looking for a loving a quiet home where he can relax in a sunbeam Could it be you? If you are intersted in adopting Diego please write in details why you want to adopt Diego. There will be a questionnaire to fill out and a modest adoption fee.
