🌟 Allow me to introduce you to the beautiful Watusi—affectionately known as Toast! This incredible Golden Retriever is a gentle soul who's just beginning to discover what it means to be a dog after a life spent as a breeder. Can you imagine the courage it takes to step into a new world that feels so big and overwhelming? That's Toast's daily journey! Now, Toast is a shy sweetheart who may zoom from room to room, startled by the simplest sounds. But with a little love and patience, she begins to blossom. She thrives on consistency—think of it as a reassuring hug for her spirit! 🥰 It’s crucial that her potential adopters understand this tender transition will take time, and sudden changes? Well, they're just not her cup of tea! ☕ To keep Toast feeling secure, she absolutely requires a nice, sturdy fenced-in yard - this is non-negotiable! 🏡 Going potty on a leash is still a skill she's mastering, and she needs to feel at ease in her own space first. A calm, quiet home with no children is the ideal place for her to learn to trust and grow. Now here’s the kicker: she needs at least one dog friend who is confident, steady, and respectful of her boundaries. This pooch should be as chill as the latest bestseller you can’t wait to read! 📖 Toast isn't quite sure how to play yet, so having a buddy who understands the need for gentle companionship is essential! It’s essential to highlight that Toast is not to be seen as a project or a fixer-upper. This sweet girl has walked a tough path, and her adoption involves multiple meet-and-greets, visits, and a slow introduction to her new home. 🙏 We want to honor her journey and ensure she feels safe and secure, every tiny step of the way. With the right environment, Toast can learn that the world can be a kinder place. Imagine watching her discover her goodness—it’ll warm your heart like a fresh loaf of bread! 🍞 If you think you can be the kind of patient, loving person Toast needs, this is your moment! This beautiful girl is approximately 72 lbs and around 5 years old. If you feel that you can provide her the gentle love and commitment she deserves, please remember that you will need to apply through the Buddy App for further instructions and support in making Toast a part of your family! 🐶💖
