23-043 Lolli was found wandering on the street near the Central Phoenix home of one of AGR’s adopters. They could not keep this pretty girl due to going away on vacation the next day. We decided to take her to one of our partner veterinarians and put her on a 6-day stray hold. We posted messages about her on several “found pet” websites, but no one ever contacted us. It was a concern because the girl was lactating, so she had had puppies not long ago. Puppies were not found anywhere in the vicinity of where Lolli had been picked up (transporter drove around for a half hour looking for posted signs). Lolli(pop) was named by the kids in the finder’s home. Judged to be about 3 years old, she was shy but loving around the humans. An AGR member couple in Scottsdale agreed to foster her, even though she was much younger than other dogs they’d fostered. At first, Lolli was depressed and anxious until she arrived at the fosters’ home where she was introduced to the resident male Golden, Scooter . It was love at first sight. Lolli threw herself at him and they commenced to play and flirt immediately. Her whole attitude shifted then and Lolli , now called Eden , became a confident, curious girl. Once inside the house, she met the frail smaller dog, Sophie , and was very gentle. She found a toy and happily threw it around for a bit. That was not an issue for Scooter at all – no jealousy or toy issues. The transporter has since talked to the adopter and everything is going very well. The dogs are best of friends and Eden is very comfortable and happy to be home.
