I don't know if you can tell by looking at me, but I'm a bit shy. Even though I'm seven years old, some things still worry me-like thunderstorms, or going down in the basement. But I'm a great passenger in the car and I absolutely love to go to my human brother and sister's games. I behave very well there, except when I see a little dog, and then I forget my manners. I'd really prefer to be the only dog in your life. I look good and I know how to behave myself. I have a beautiful blonde coat and you'd be proud to be on the end of my leash. I really like kids and going for walks is the greatest. I take a little while to adjust to new situations but I'd be happy to settle in with you. Don't you need an Angel on your side?

My foster mom helped me write my own ad: Beautiful 2 year old Golden gal seeking active family that loves to snuggle, throw tennis balls, go on car rides and sit next to me while stroking my neck or rubbing my belly. I'm lots of fun and would love to be your companion throughout the day. Since I'm still in the "puppy stage" I do need continued obedience training and maybe we could add an agility class as I can run fast, jump high, and be a contortionist. I'm willing to try just about anything active.

When it comes to jumping, I sail over 4' fences in a single bound. My foster mom says I have to wear a long cable because of that. I do well with children and mobility challenged individuals. My foster dad uses a power chair and sometimes he and I will go do laps around the outdoor track. We go on long walks too. He also uses a walker at home and I'm real good not to trip him.

I am also learning to get along with other dogs and play doggie games. My foster Golden brother and I wrestle and chase toys and have lots of fun. I do have some phobias like noisy lawn mowers and leaf blowers. They scare me. Sometimes I get a little nervous with storms when there is lots of thunder and lightning; but you can calm me down as I snuggle close to you.

My foster mom says I'm really smart, sometimes too smart. I don't know what she means by that but I think it is a good thing. So if you are looking for an active companion who is so willing to learn and loves being with you, give AGAG a call and fill out an adoption form.

Don't let that sporting dog image fool you-I'm basically an 80 lb. lap dog. Sure I like to play with tennis balls and go for walks, but enough is enough! I just want to hang out with you and let you pet me as much as you like. At ten years old I guess you'd call me a senior, but I'm in great shape if I do say so myself and I know how to behave in the house. You won't catch ME tearing around the place getting into trouble. That's kidstuff-and who needs it! So, if you're in the market for a good looking guy to keep you company and cuddle up next to you on the couch, I'm your man. I love to ride in the car too, so why don't you come by and pick me up. I'll win your heart when you meet me!

My foster mom calls me "one big bundle of happy" and she's right. Everything is fun, especially pulling her through the yard with my leash. She needs to learn to heel! I heard she's getting me something called a harness, so that may change. But for now I'm really good in the house and I'm just fine if you use a gate to keep me confined.

I'm three years old so I'm over some of the puppy nonsense, but I still have lots of energy to play and have fun. I would really love to have a fenced yard so I can run and run but not escape. When I'm outside I don't always hear when you call me to come back. My foster mom says it's selective hearing but they can fix that in training classes. If you're looking for a fun guy who wants to learn to be an amazing dog, I'm your man!

Just when I thought I really had it made, my foster dad decided to move out of state. When he said, "Curtis, we have to talk…" I just knew the news wasn't good. My foster dad really gets me. He knows I need him to drop everything to help me get the tennis ball that's stuck behind the furniture. He realizes I really don't like other dogs very much at all and dog parks are just not my thing. We make a great pair! He gets my sense of humor and he likes my good manners. And I just like hanging out with him.

So, that leaves me in a tough situation. Everybody says I'm the perfect dog - if you don't expect me to deal with other dogs. I'm a healthy, smart, funny 8 year old Golden who has to find a new roommate. I'll stay out of the refrigerator and I won't hog the bathroom. Heck, I'll even bring the paper in if you want. Think about it-you get a great partner and I get a brand new home! You won't be sorry!

Well, I may not look very Golden to you, but my heart is pure Gold! I came into my foster home not even knowing my name and definitely didn't have much training. But I really learn fast. I live with other dogs and I know about sharing and not taking the other guys' toys. I know which rooms I'm allowed in and when it's time to hang out in my crate. I love to play in my family's pool, but I don't go in it unless I'm asked to. And I take treats very gently so they'll keep giving them to me.

I came from a shelter and I'm about two years old. You can tell I'm not a purebred Golden, but I think you'll like the way I am. I guess I'm a bit of an over-achiever-instead of giving you a paw, I'll give you two. It's kind of a game with me. All the kids love me and some of the neighborhood kids are trying to convince their parents to adopt me. I have a great time with the other two dogs in my foster home and we'll miss each other when I leave. But it's about time I had a home of my own and my own people to love. It would be nice if it were you!

You can probably tell that I'm a mix and what a great combination I am! I'm part Golden and part Samoyed, so that's why I have such a great smile. And you should see my lovely coat-you'll just want to snuggle with me all the time! At the As Good as Gold Dog Wash a few weeks ago complete strangers kept coming up to me to hug me when they saw how fluffy I was after my bath! I'm about 5 or 6 years old and I really like to be around my owner. At first I may seem kind of shy, or even clingy, but as soon as I get to know you I relax pretty easily. In my foster home I have two Golden brothers, one young and one a bit older, and we have a great time playing and sharing toys. The young one didn't let up until I learned how to play his game. I'm glad he showed me how to have fun. I'd love to go to a home with other playmates and a family who wants a nice dog to cuddle with.

Hi, I'm Sergio and I'm five years old. I came from a shelter and when they got me out of there they found I was heartworm positive. I guess that means I can't run around as much as I want, but so far I'm doing okay with the treatments. Sometimes I get bored and do things like digging in the yard, but if you tell me to stop, I will.

I don't remember if anyone ever worked with me on the obedience commands, but I'm trying to learn them in my foster home. I don't know why my foster mom keeps bugging me about that "wait" thing. When she's on the phone I get a kick out of getting really close and panting into it. The people on the other end think it's creepy. But, I'm getting better every day and as soon as I can get more exercise I should really blossom. You could adopt me soon and As Good as Gold will pay for the rest of my heartworm treatments. What do you think?

Well, I've been working on my manners in my foster home for a long time and I think I'm getting the hang of it. I'm always going to be an active girl; no couch potato stuff for me. But they've discovered that if I'm using my brain to learn how to do new things like obedience and agility, I'm much easier to live with.

I've gotten lots of emails from people who want to adopt me. I think it's because I'm cute-if I do say so myself. But the people who take me home have to be prepared to go to training classes and teach me new things so I stay out of trouble. I'm four years old and very smart, but I'm kind of a puppy at heart. I've got the energy and enthusiasm; I just need the structure and consistent help to be a good girl. Are you up for it?

Hi! You may have met me before on this site but I wanted you to see my new picture. They told you I was lanky, but you'll need to meet me in person to see how long and trim I am! I do think I look more Golden in this one. One of my relatives may have been a Lab or even a shepherd, but I'm all Golden at heart. Now that I'm living inside I'm very careful about my manners. I love it when people pet me and brushing's good too.

Oh, and I love having my very own bed. I take treats so gently and I can show you a lot of tricks I've learned, like "sit" and "down". Even though I'm nine years old, I'm still learning new things all the time-like walking on a leash-pretty tough not to pull! I don’t hate that noisy lawnmower anymore. In fact, I know how to follow my foster mom while she’s mowing to make sure she doesn’t miss anything. She wishes I’d learn how to use a rake! Why don't you come and meet me and I can practice not getting too excited!
