Pete was 2.5 years old and Ruby was 1.5 years old.

We were Ruby's third home in her short life.

The first few days together for Pete and Ruby in 2011.

Our sweet Abby was 8 weeks old when we brought her home from the breeder. Roxy, her half sister, came to us 6 years later at age 7 because of a divorce situation. Abby lived to 15 years and Roxy to 14 years. My current two goldens are both from a rescue...Gage was a 2 1/2 year old Amish bred dog and he was surrendered because the owners could not afford his hip replacement surgery. We have had him now 6 years and he is a big goof. Claire was 4 years old when we got her, she was a breeding dog from a backyard breeder. The poor dogs were housed at a vacant property and got very little affection, attention or food. Although we have had her 4 years, she is still a very insecure, nervous girl. Raised in a loving home, I think she would have been another Abby. I think we will always do rescue just because there are so many that need homes....
