Annie settled in quickly and made our house her home—there was no going back for any of us. At 11 years old, she wasted no time teaching us her routines, making sure we stayed on schedule for meals and paid the daily snack tax without fail.

She’s never met a stranger and is every bit the classic golden—greeting everyone with a wagging tail and her signature golden smile, always ready to trade it for a belly rub. And don’t let her age fool you—she knows the scent of every rabbit in the neighborhood and can still move when she’s on the hunt.

We’re incredibly grateful to the placement team and all the volunteers at Rescue A Golden for the care they give these dogs and for making matches like Annie possible!
