Owen

My story

Hellllooooooooooo! I’m Owen the hound mix and I am just as loving and fun as any golden retriever! I was lucky to find my way to Neuse River Golden Retriever Rescue from Alabama when I was just a sick little puppy. I’ve been in 2 foster homes who helped me heal and have helped me learn what they call “good dog things”. I had some infections and a problem with one of my legs but that has gotten so much better. I’m here looking for my forever home. I’ve met a lot of people who think that I’m adorable and sweet but we haven’t met “the one” yet. I just went to a temporary foster home while my foster mama traveled for a week, and I was a great house guest and they fell a little in love with me. So we know “the one” is out there. I’m a medium energy kind of guy. I like a little running and sniffing in the yard, maybe a walk of a mile or so, some playing with dog friends - and then I’m ready for a good nap. I’m the kind of dog that is good with other dogs - I have higher energy dog friends that I run and wrestle with, and there are older dogs in my foster home that I know to just hang out with ‘cause they don’t like to run and wrestle. I know how to do my business outside and I have never had an accident in my foster home. I also know that my crate is my happy chill place and I’m glad to go in there for meals and rest time. My favorite things are exploring and sniffing, getting attention and love, playing in the hose and naps. My foster mom says I am an adorable goofball and I make her laugh a lot. I know all the basic stuff like sit, down, come, stay, how to walk nicely on leash. I love going places in the car and I’m good in public. If you think my ears are cool and if you are an adults-only home, reach out to your person to reach out to my person and let’s meet!
