Momma Honey - This Golden Retriever mix girl is about 2 years old and 50 pounds and has the most amazing foster mom and this is what she says about Honey. "What can I say, she is the most incredible dog I’ve ever met. This young, beautiful, golden mix momma dog was walking by my house one night in early July. It was raining, dark, and she was thin, tired, starving, and thirsty. This momma had the drive and will to survive for her puppies. All eight of them. All I knew was that she was nursing and there were puppies somewhere near. She stopped by home long enough for me to feed her and the she was on her way. After her third visit, she trusted me. We walked down a two lane country road about a half a mile until she pulled me in the direction of what might be her home. A home that was no home to her. A home that didn’t love her, didn’t want her, didn’t feed her, and didn’t know she had 8 beautiful puppies behind a trailer on the back field. I took her and all her babies the next day, loaded them up in my CRV, and they came home. To a real home, a home with love, and silly songs about dogs and cats and kitties and baths.
Honey had to share the spotlight, which she didn’t mind. My love was shared amongst her, her 8 pups, my three labs, and my indoor kitty, all rescues. She immediately took to my girls. She wanted a friend, she got three. Honey is a brave soul for standing nose to nose with my one year old black and white kitten, Biggie. She’s small, fierce, and runs this household, but Honey wanted to spend time with her too. I’ve not met a dog, a mother, a warrior like her. She protects her babies, protects me, and is currently my best lookout dog.
With her shiny golden coat that flips out at the bottoms, shiny white teeth, and DROP DEAD stunning golden eyes, she stole my heart, but her personality touched my soul. It’s been a privilege to love on this medium size, 50 lb dog, that holds my hand with her paw and sits on the front porch with me in the mornings. Honey is great with new people. A sweet neighbor comes over each morning with chicken baked just for her. We call him the chicken man and he is always welcome, just like she will welcome the family that gets to take her home. Honey is loyal, loving, and a traveler. This girl is ready to settle in for the long haul.
