About Molly Golden

Molly Golden is a 7-year-old Golden Retriever with an endearing, soulful gaze that hints at the stories she's experienced. Though she lost her family unexpectedly, she's not broken—just a bit lost, showing pure love that Goldens are known for. Molly has a delightful quirk: she often takes your sleeve or leash gently in her mouth, as if to say, "I've got you. Let’s go together." She thrives on companionship and needs ongoing training to refine her leash skills. A few key points: - On the leash, Molly is strong and can pull, particularly if she encounters other dogs. She's reactive on leash, so city living may not suit her. - She should be the only dog in the home due to food guarding tendencies and she needs to be respected during meals. - Children aged 10 or older are best, as they can respect her space, especially during feeding times. Treat-taking is still a work in progress, so her new family should help her improve her manners. - Molly is 100% house and crate trained, settling quietly in her space. - A securely fenced yard is essential for her exercise and play. Molly needs a loving home where clear boundaries and consistent training will allow her to thrive. Her heart is ready to connect with a new family. Will yours be the one?
