Profile

Sky (called Jackson by his foster family) came into RAGOM from a retired breeder. Jackson gets along well with other dogs, from grumpy little 3-pounders to joyful Labs. Because of his background, any childen in his home must be age 8+. Jackson cannot go to a home with cats, as he views them more as snacks than family members. A physical fence is required. Jackson is busy learning basic commands and would love to continue his schooling in his furever home.

I am happy to announce I have found my furever home! I have a nice back yard to play in and a nice quiet neighborhood to walk around. I also have some teenage hoomans who absolutely love me. They are super nice to me. I think we're gonna have a blast together.

Foster dad told me he is so proud of me. Since my last update I have caught on to house training and I only potty outside now. I have also learned some cool tricks like catching a ball in the air and shaking, which always seems to be a crowd favorite. Foster dad always told me how smart I am and that he thinks I have a huge capacity for learning.

Though I've been told I'm a “really chill” kind of dog, I can't wait to start my new Golden life. Thank you for that, RAGOM. I won't be a stranger and will keep in touch!

Howdy! My name is Sky, but in my foster home I'm known as Jackson. I happily came into RAGOM from a commercial breeder. I am 7 months old and weigh 55 lbs as of 3/19/2020. I am a blonde Golden, and quite a handsome one at that, if I do say so myself. 

I settled in with my foster dad pretty quickly. I am not fully house trained yet, but my foster dad tells me I'm making a lot of progress and doing great so far. I don't mind hanging out in my crate, and I can sleep in there all night if need be. I am getting acclimated to staying out of my crate at night and sleeping on the floor. I haven't had any accidents since I started sleeping on the floor at night.

People tell me I am a pretty mellow cruiser, especially as far as Golden puppies go. I am content hanging out with my foster dad. I stick with him pretty closely for the most part, but I am not afraid to find a cozy spot on the floor and settle in for a nap, either. 

I am happy being in the house, or going outside. Going for walks is cool, and I love playing ball! When my foster dad throws it for me I will run it down, pick it up, and bring it back so he can throw it for me again. I'm happy the snow is going away, but I did love me some snow to roll around and play in.

I had a couple different appointments shortly after meeting my foster dad. The vet got me caught up on my shots and said I did great! She said I am such a nice, calm boy with such a sweet demeanor, that I may make a fine service dog one day. 

I also had a 'minor procedure' done that means I won't be fathering any puppies, but that's okay. I have recovered nicely as it wasn't that big of a deal.

Although I'm a pretty big boy, I just love hugs and snuggling. I am still a puppy, and still figuring out the way of the world. I am a big, happy goof that just loves to hang out, go for walks, and play ball. My foster dad keeps telling me how special of a boy I am and that I'm gonna make some lucky family very happy someday!
