Hunter was 8 months old;
shy, nervous with a possible orthopedic problem
and in the Westside shelter. The shelter is a
scary place especially for a sensitive young
Golden. Arizona Golden Retriever Connection got
him out of the shelter and to a young couple
that wanted just to foster dogs and help get
them started on the path to their forever home.
That path led to Carol and John, who were
looking for a young Golden Retriever to add to
their family which included Honey, a Golden
Retriever and 2 felines, TC and Copy Cat. Honey
and Hunter were best pals from the moment they
meet. They would spend hours playing with each
other and pulling their toys out of their
plastic toy tub, one toy at a time. And
eventually, TC and Copy Cat decided that Hunter
was a cool dude.
Hunter went into a growth
spurt and it was discovered that he had a
missing growth plate on his right leg and would
require surgery so that he would not have long
term effects. Hunter came through the surgery
with flying colors.
Today Hunter not only has
Honey, TC and Copy Cat for pals but another
Golden Girl joined the family. Hunter went from
scared and alone to a home that surrounds him
with love and companionship.
