Hi everyone! My name is Samantha and I am a 6 week old PB Golden Retriever! I joined the RAGOM family on Saturday November 9, 2013 along with my momma Nicole 13-351 and my 6 brothers (Bixby, Chester, Oliver, Sawyer, Winston) and one sister (JJ).
We all came from a breeder that was retiring due to health issues and he wanted all of us to find great forever homes.
At 4.5 weeks old I weighed a healthy 6.4 pounds and am a rough and tumble kind of gal and love to wrestle and get everyone whipped up into a frenzy. At 6 weeks, I am 7.9 pounds of love! I answer to either Samantha or Sam. I love to be cuddled when I am getting sleepy, but if there is a bunch of action going on, I need to be a part of it. We were outside for a little bit yesterday, and I was the first one to figure out how to go under the snow fence so I could chase my foster-sisters. So I decided to do a reverse Prison Break and break back in!





We are on a good schedule for play and sleeping with different people coming in 2 times during the day and some at night to help socialize us with people. It is incredible how many super nice people are out there, both from RAGOM and outside, that are willing to spend time bathing, playing and even cleaning up our messes.
Saturday morning was D-Day, as in Denied-Day, so no more milk from momma Nicole. I am already missing that special time. But I know we have to grow up sometime.
As for my medical stuff, we have all been dewormed and have had our first distemper vaccination. The vet said none of us have any heart murmurs. We do have giardia, and finished up our treatment. We have to wait another week to retest to see if we got rid of the nasty little bugger. Thankfully, the diarrhea has stopped for six of us so FM is SUPER HAPPY about that.
All of us will go see the Dr. for a “procedure” on December 10 so none of us will be moms or dads. We will be available for adoption starting December 12. It would be great to be in my forever home in time for me to send in my change of address card to Santa before Christmas two weeks later.
Remember, even though I am small, cute and cuddly now, I will grow up to be a full size dog in a very short time and I will need lots and lots of love, patience, exercise, obedience training and adventures in my life. I would totally love to have a brother or sister or two in my new home, but it is not required. We are available to meet potential families now, so if you would like to meet me, please contact your placement advisor and ask for “The Purple Princess Samantha”!
