Poor Titus. When he came into rescue he was un-neutered. Los Angeles requires all dogs to neutered (some exemptions apply with permits…seeing eye breeders, etc.) so Titus went in last week for the big op. He was a little groggy when I picked him up and he looked like a dog from space with his …

Titus-one month
We’ve been fostering Titus for one month today. He’s been a joy to have around with his big Golden smile. Titus is now coming to work at the studio and likes to chill out on the cool floor there. He has also figured out that he gets extra love from clients and that’s a very …
Titus-news
Titus went in to the vets for a barrage of tests last week and he has been diagnosed with atypical Addison’s Disease. That means his adrenal glands are not producing proper amounts of corticosteroid for his body. Luckily, Titus is only shy of glucocorticoids and only needs to take 2 tiny pills everyday to make …
Titus-out and about
Whew, it’s been rather a crazy week here and we didn’t have any time to get online but we’re back. We’ll try and catch up with everyone over the weekend. Titus is still with us and has started having some small adventures. He loves to explore. We took him to a park in Burbank and …
Titus-2 week update
Titus has been with us for 2 weeks now and he’s adapted extremely well to his foster home. He looks forward to his daily walks and is walking 4 to 6 miles a day now. One of his favorite pass times is to hang out in the yard on squirrel patrol. When he’s tired he …
Titus-adjusting
Titus is adjusting to his foster life and revealing his true personality. Every foster dog takes some time to adjust and we respect that (except Jake… he was at home from day one… he was the only foster we had that slept a whole night through the first night!) . You never know what these dogs have lived through and can only speculate as to what as …
Titus-Griffith Park Hike
We took advantage of the quiet long weekend to take Titus hiking in Griffith Park and burn off some puppy energy. Besides, a hike in the hills beats a workout at the gym any day…and it’s a lot less smelly. With the recent hot weather, the vegetation is starting to dry out. Fire season isn’t …
Titus-Mission: Squirrel
Titus had a busy day today. First he was whisked off to the vets for a full exam. He wasn’t very thrilled that this was the start of his day so we made it up to him by spending some of the afternoon at the “squirrel” park. All our dogs love this park because there …
Titus-update
Titus has a beautiful Golden smile that can light up your day. He is very observant and is always looking up… at birds, planes, helicopters and butterflies. Titus came from a suburb of Los Angeles that is in the desert, so he enjoys roaching in the grass (even though ours is looking rather sad due …
Titus
We’re back… and we have a new foster, Titus. He had a run in with a car, ended up at a local shelter and was surrendered by his owners, who didn’t want this lovely lad any longer. Titus has a beautiful big head and is a terrific looking Golden. His body needs to catch up …
Jake-adopted-the new fresh prince of Bel Air
Jake found his forever family today! He is now the new fresh prince of Bel Air, where he is going to live with his new family. We’re sure he’s going to be spoiled like a king and have a great time exploring his new domain. Jake will have plenty of room to run and even …
Jake-focused
Jake loves to watch the world go by outside the window. I saw he was extra interested in something. The enemy on his lunch break. This squirrel was doing back flips for about 5 minutes. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get a good shot of that. but he kept Jake entertained for a little over an hour. …
Jake-update
Jake is really enjoying having us all to himself and loves to play. He has so much energy we have dubbed him “the Red Rocket”. I have a feeling this guy would be really good at agility. After a big walk, in the mornings, we have a high energy play. Jake loves the Westpaw ball. …
Sky-adopted
We’re happy to report that Sky is officially adopted! He will live with his new family in Los Angeles and is starting off his new life with a new name to go with it, Murphy. His family had a sneak preview this weekend and fell in love as soon as they met him and the …
Sky & Jake
Sky & Jake are a good example of the different shades Golden Retrievers come in. We’ve had reds and golds and they are both very pretty or handsome in the case of these 2 fellows. Sky is trying to entice Jake to play but they have very different styles of playing. Sky likes to wrestle …
Jake-update
Jake is settling in to our home and we are finding out new things about him as he does. Goldens are hunting dogs and Jake has the nose of a keen hunter. He puts his nose to the ground and sniffs every tiny scent. Jake is very keen on moving things so he would not …
Jake
Meet Jake, our latest foster who showed up rather suddenly yesterday afternoon. Two year old Jake has been shuffled around in his short life and just wants to settle down with one family for the rest of his days. This youngster is still adjusting to his latest stop but Sky was eager to help him …
Sky-update
Sky missed Candy the day after she went home but we lavished him with love and he’s doing better now. We are starting to know more about Sky’s personality. He has some puppy traits about him, he likes to dig (I don’t know what it is about our peach tree, but if a dog is …
