Some new photos of this great boy. I just cannot say enough good things about Nugget. He so looks forward to his walks every day. He loves walks and behaves so well, no stop and pee all the time, just ‘let’s walk and have a good day.” Nugget is always in a good mood and happy to so you. He has the best disposition and personality. Nugget has total freedom with the rest of the pack when we are gone. Never a problem. Nugget gets along with everyone, we even brought in another cat to kitty-sit and he didn’t care. (our daughter’s cat). He has the most gentle, lovely boy ever. He is great with kids. Never really heard him bark. He chimed in a time or two when the other 3 were barking at something but quickly stops.
Nugget listens very, very well. He will sit on his haunches with paws up and patiently wait for a snack. He does know lay down, wait, come, get-it, sit, roll over. He knows when it is time for bed at night, the crew all goes to their respective spots as does Nugget. Sleeps all night quietly. This is one boy who is a real happy camper when you come home from work! He has a great ‘nuggie-wiggle’ and his tails just goes. Always a happy boy. Nugget loves to be pet, belly rub, brushing, you name it…..personal contact is his thing. He is fine with the other crew totally.
He is very friendly when meeting other dogs. He does not chase anything and is not interested in squirrels or anything like that. He enjoys a good dog chew/bone and is very respectful when the others have one at the same time. Everyone eats in harmony and no problems there. I will be anxious to see what he weighs again here soon so see if he has lost some weight. He is on a good diet and a much smaller amount. He likes his food with some cottage cheese, Blue moist food, chicken broth or just plain. He sit beautifully and very patient for a snack.
We have a full flight of carpeted stairs and he can go up and down those with no problem. He is really in good shape. He has golden coat with some curl and it just glistens in the sun. He has this face that just makes you melt! Nugget is the type of golden boy who can do well with other dogs or not, with or without cats, kids or no. Nugget is a total delight to foster and you cannot have much better than him. There are no physical issues with Nugget and he is in great health. He acts more like 4 or so. I look forward to our walks every day together with Maggie, our mix who is 9 also. He just makes you feel good when he is around because he is so content. One wonderful golden boy and a great foster, we are very fortunate.
