A little about them

Cedar is a handsome, energetic, playful golden retriever who can be a little nervous while adjusting after losing his owner. He loves toys, food, attention, chasing a ball, and cozy snuggles. With patience, a predictable routine, positive reinforcement, and plenty of TLC, Cedar is looking for a loving forever home.

Ideal Home

Cedar would do best with a dog-experienced adopter in a home with a fenced yard rather than an apartment. He may be able to live with another dog after careful introductions. His history with cats is unknown, so slow, structured introductions are recommended. Because he is nervous, dog-savvy children age 5 and older may be considered at the counselor’s discretion, with introductions at the shelter.

Ongoing Health

Cedar is vaccinated. The listing states that he needs a neuter before going home.

Training & Support

Cedar appears to be house-trained. Positive-reward obedience classes are not required but could be beneficial. He will benefit from consistent, patient training and a predictable routine.

Application Details

  • Applications begin by contacting the provider through Wags.
