About Honey

Honey’s world changed when her owner passed, and she landed in a crowded shelter. She’s settled in at rescue, but she’s clearly ready to bond with her own person again. At about 6 years old, Honey is on thyroid medication, which is helping her move closer to a healthy 75-pound weight. She’s got a medium, golden coat and a friendly, open personality. Honey thrives on human attention—expect a toy always in her mouth, especially when you want to play fetch. She easily gets along with many dogs, but she’d be happiest as your only canine companion in a home where she can soak up all the affection and toys. She’s house trained, super affectionate, and adores children. Give Honey the stability she’s looking for and watch her come alive. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
