Travis

Picture
God once said, "I need someone strong enough to pull a cart but gentle enough to love a child, smart enough to protect his master, and compassionate enough to love his family.  Someone with so much love, they can lift the spirits of a broken heart.  So, God created the Golden Retriever.”  Well, we don't know if God actually said this, but Travis is ready to fill your life with love!

Meet Travis, a one-year-old, neutered Golden Retriever with a heart as big as his smile!  This happy-go-lucky boy is full of energy, personality, and puppy charm.  If you're looking for a playful sidekick who will keep you smiling, Travis is your guy.

This handsome youngster absolutely loves other dogs and would likely thrive in a home with a playful canine companion. Travis would enjoy playing with older children, but may be too energetic for younger tykes.  He has no known history with cats.  Travis is friendly, curious, affectionate, and always ready for his next adventure.  Whether he's doing joyful zoomies, chasing after his favorite toy, or soaking up pets and handing out sweet kisses, Travis lives life to the fullest.

Like many young dogs, Travis is still learning the ropes.  He knows how to sit (most of the time!) and is eager to learn, but he'll need an adopter who can continue his training.  Leash walking is a work in progress—he sometimes gets so excited he wants to carry the leash himself!  Like many retrievers, Travis enjoys having something in his mouth, so durable chew toys are the best match for him.  He especially enjoys carrying sticks around outside and happily turns them into little wood chips during playtime!

Travis has a high energy level and would love an active home where he can play, explore, and burn off that youthful enthusiasm.  He especially enjoys retrieving toys, and hard plastic squeaky toys are his current favorites. We wouldn't be surprised if this adventurous boy turns out to love swimming, too!  Do check out Travis' video!

Travis's ideal home is with an active individual, couple, or family who can give him plenty of exercise, continued training, and lots of love. Another playful dog would be a huge bonus! In return, you'll get an affectionate, goofy best friend with a floppy tongue, endless enthusiasm, and enough love to brighten every single day.

Mr T has been brought up-to-date on vaccinations, is microchipped, neutered, and heartworm negative.  He has been given a Proheart-6 injection for 6 months of heartworm prevention.  If you're ready for a loyal companion who's equal parts athlete, comedian, and cuddle bug, Travis is waiting to meet you!  

Travis will be ready to travel north in mid-to-late August to be adopted.  Please contact Cheryl if you are approved to adopt through SGRR.  If not yet approved, please fill out an application.  

Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical.  When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to continue the rehabilitation we have begun.
