Hi folks! I'm Auggie (short for Augustine). I'm a 5 year old Golden Retriever mix. I was at animal control for 5 very long, scary and lonely months, but the day before I was to be put to sleep, some really nice people stepped in to save me. Right now I weigh 55 lbs and can stand to put on even more weight. When I got out of animal control I was 10 lbs. lighter and covered in mats! Because I spent so much time lying on the cold concrete floor in the shelter, I had some issues with my hips when I first got out. Since being in my foster home and getting lots of good food and joint supplements, my muscles have started coming back and I'm getting around much better. I'll probably need to go to a specialist before long to make sure everything is okay. I had heartworms when I came into the AARF program, but I've been treated for them and now I feel as good as new! My foster folks just keep on giving me lots of love, food and exercise, and I'm getting stronger every day! I return their kindness with lots of kisses and constant smiles! I love to take long walks and am great on a leash. I'm very social and like being with other dogs and people but I'm still working on having cats around. They're fun to chase! If you think I might be the guy for you, fill out an application so we can meet. You won't regret it!
