DOG OF THE WEEK - Help Hope Find Her Forever Home

This 9 month old Golden Retriever/Labrador Retriever mix needs a home. Will it be yours?

Hope is a 9 month old, Golden Retriever/Labrador Retriever mix. She is about 40 pounds and mostly full grown. Hope came from a high kill shelter in Georgia. She is a very sweet girl who will thrive on human attention. Hope gets along nicely with other dogs and would do well with another dog. She learns quickly with proper training.

Hope is up-to-date with her routine shots. Her housebreaking is going very well and she is learning to walk on a leash. Hope will need to learn some table manners as she does not know how to behave in the kitchen at human mealtime. Hope will make a wonderful pet for a family, couple or single.

For more information on Hope or any of the other dogs available through Home for Good Dog Rescue, visit the Home for Good website, call (908) 598-8212 or email contacthfg@gmail.com.
