Description
Dog Breed: Golden Retriever. Meet Josie At 7 years old and 88 pounds, this beautiful purebred Golden Retriever is ready to start the very best chapter of her life. Josie spent much of her past outdoors, but you’d never know it by the way her gentle, loving spirit shines through. She has a heart as big as her smile and a quiet gratitude for every bit of kindness she receives. Josie absolutely lights up at the mention of a walk and will happily be your loyal sidekick wherever you go—whether it’s a stroll around the neighborhood or a ride through town. She’s wonderful on leash, enjoys car rides, and thrives on simply being by your side. She does well with cats and would be happiest as the only dog in the home, where she can soak up all the love and attention she truly deserves. Josie is also comfortable with children ages 10 and up. Now fully spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, Josie is ready to settle into a cozy home—one where she can trade the cold ground for a soft bed and the outdoors for a life filled with warmth, companionship, and care. She would benefit from daily supplements to support some mild arthritis, but it doesn’t slow her down from enjoying life’s simple pleasures. Josie is the definition of a classic Golden Retriever: loyal, affectionate, and endlessly devoted. All she wants is a family to love—and she’ll give that love back tenfold. If you’re looking for a sweet, steady companion to share your days and adventures, Josie is ready to meet you. If interested, please fill out a statement of interest on our website.

Overview:
The Golden Retriever, a beloved breed originating from the Scottish Highlands in the mid-19th century, was developed for retrieving game from land and water. Physically, they are medium-sized dogs known for their striking golden-colored coats, ranging from cream to dark gold, which are dense and water-repellent. Their gentle eyes and friendly smiles are as characteristic as their feathered tails and strong, well-proportioned bodies. Temperamentally, Golden Retrievers are celebrated for their amiable, intelligent, and devoted nature, making them exceptionally patient and tolerant companions. This makes them superb family dogs, typically great with children and other pets, though their need for space and exercise means they are generally less suited for apartment living. While generally robust, they are prone to certain health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, certain cancers, and eye conditions, making regular veterinary check-ups crucial for their long-term well-being.
