Rescue a Golden of Arizona

Adopted December 31 2024

Our Charley Bear

Please help RAGofAZ rescue more dogs like us!

Our CHARLEY is doing beautifully. He was very spirited and had some behavioral issues, but since he has been neutered, he is much better and doing better every day. We also hired a trainer which has helped significantly and we work with him every day in training. As it turned out, Charley is not, alas, a golden retriever. Charley is a Great Pyrenees who was misidentified because of the gold spots on his ears and back. When he came to us, he was found on the street with a homeless woman and he was very ill with pneumonia and Valley fever. He weighed 45 pounds.  He now weighs 94 pounds and is as healthy as a horse and eat like a horse. We love Charley with everything we have. Honorable mention goes out to your agency’s Vet Liaison Barb Elk.  Barb has been amazing.
