23-056 Dumbledore, age 5, and 23-057 Draco, age 3, are a bonded pair of purebred Goldens. Their owner had developed several brain tumors and was fading fast, so she called us very close to what she felt was her pending demise. She had taken good care of the boys, until she couldn’t. They were up to date on their vaccines and already neutered. Draco has been with Dumbledore since he was 8 weeks old. Draco was a Pandemic puppy and did not socialize with other dogs besides his brother. He is standoffish with other dogs and will go crazy barking at another dog. So, the owner solved the problem by not taking him around other dogs. He takes a while to warm up to humans but when he does, he is a snuggle bug. Dumbledore is a very friendly, social boy. Both boys are big – weighing 100 pounds each. We placed them with an adoptive couple in San Tan Valley. They have had pairs of Goldens several times but currently had no pets. They were thrilled to receive these two beautiful boys. The owner had lived in a small studio apartment, so when the boys were transported to their new home, they reveled in running around the big yard. Neither seemed interested in the pool, but the adopter vowed he would get both of them in by the end of the summer. In addition to more exercise, the boys were started on the green bean diet. One quirky thing about Draco that the transporters noticed: he is definitely attracted to light and shadow movement – the transporter could not get a really good photo of him outside because her phone kept picking up light spots and showing them on the ground – he was basically transfixed by the moving lights. The adopters have shortened the names to Dumble and Dre and just love their boys.
