Introducing Tater, the radiant Golden Retriever with a twinkle in his eye and warmth in his heart! At around 2 years old and weighing in at a sturdy 70 lbs, Tater is nothing short of delightful. With a personality that’s as golden as his fur, this gentle giant believes that everyone is a friend, proving to be a total charmer, whether it’s at the park or while visiting the vet. 🐶✨ Tater’s journey hasn't been easy. Rescued from a backyard breeder where he spent his tender early years in a cramped cage, he has shown incredible resilience. It’s true—he faces some challenges with his carpal deformities in both front legs (the left being more affected), but he manages to stay active and happy! 🥰💪 While veterinary specialists have indicated that surgery could be a future option, Tater remains pain-free and thrives on love and care. Who wouldn’t love a buddy who greets life with enthusiasm? He’s been adjusting wonderfully and enjoys his daily adventures, all the while needing a little extra support through weight management and controlled exercise. Keep in mind, as this sweet boy ages, he may need a bit of pain management should arthritis set in. But I tell you, the love he gives is worth every moment! ❤️ Tater is looking for a loving home that understands his unique physical needs and is ready to shower him with affection. In exchange, he promises to be your devoted companion, bringing endless cuddles and joy into your life! Is there a spot in your heart and home for Tater?
