Arrival Story:
Rocky came from a wealthy family in New Port Beach CA. They have five children and they just did not have time to spend with Rocky. They put him up for adoption with the Golden Retriever Rescue Society and we had just lost our ten year old Golden "Charlie" to bone cancer about 3 weeks prior. When I called to inquire about Rocky, they had already received about a dozen calls from potential new parents. When I described the life style that our dogs enjoy and how much time we spend with them, they asked me to come out the next day to visit with Rocky and be "interviewed" by the original owners and representative from the Rescue Society. That was all it took. Rocky came home to live with our family, and he immediately bonded with our other two Goldens, Andy and Tanner. We have a full house once again, and Rocky LOVES his new family. At least that's what he tells us anyway.
