About Keeley

Keeley is a remarkable Golden Retriever ready for her forever home. At about 2 and a half years old and weighing 60 lbs, she's come a long way after overcoming some health challenges. Once a medical needs pup, she had a lipoma and two mast cell tumors addressed, but she's now been cleared and is thriving. Keeley is spayed, dewormed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations, plus she's received good preventive care against fleas, ticks, and heartworms. Even with some pressure scars from her previous life, Keeley is a sweet and playful girl. Fully housebroken, she walks nicely on a leash and eagerly jumps into the car for adventures. Her playful spirit shines through when she fetches or gets the occasional zoomies. Keeley is affectionate and loves cuddles, making her a great companion. Good news for families: she's friendly with both kids and dogs, but she'd do best in a home without cats. Keeley is currently fostered in Texas and will be heading to New Jersey soon for her adoption journey. Don’t miss the chance to welcome this loving girl into your home.
