Boudreaux or Boo




BOUDREAUX went to his forever home
in June 2008.
Judy/Alicia,
I don’t believe that we will be needing the full 2 weeks
to make a decision on the adoption of Boudreaux - - - we are
in LOVE!!!! He is awesome and such a good little boy!!! Mags
and Boo are having a blast playing together. Last night we even
caught them taken their snoozes together side by side. I believe
that he was sent from the heavens because he is a perfect match
for our family!! We are just tickled to have Boudreaux become
a part of the Goga’s!!
Please take the necessary steps to finalize the adoption. Alicia
has our payment. If you need anything from us for the adoption
proceedings, please e-mail or call at your convenience.
Thank you both so much for all you did for Boudreaux and do
for the many other 4 legged furry kids!!! Golden’s are
the best!!!

Update on June 15, 2008:
Thought I'd give y'all an update on Boudreaux. He has now been
with me for 4
days. I've been home sick the whole time so I've really gotten
to see his
personality coming out. This is a terrific dog. I keep asking
Judy if she is
sure he has always been an outside dog. He is such a gentleman.
He is
definitely housebroken as he has had no accidents in the house.
He does exactly
what my dogs do to tell me to let him out. He hits the door
knob with his nose
and then looks at me to make sure I've heard him.
He shows no food aggression or toy aggression (including rawhides)
with me. He
has shown very minor growling at my dogs with a new toy but
nothing out of the
ordinary. He sits before getting his food at my command. To
test him, I've
removed his half eaten bowl and asked him to sit and wait for
it. He had no
problem repeating this exercise.
He does well on a leash. I've tried him just on a regular collar
instead of a
training collar and he did not pull me.
I left him on his own for about 30 minutes today...no problem.
He is going to
make someone very happy!
Boudreaux comes to us from southeast LA. His family is moving
and cannot take
him with them. He has spent his life as an outside dog; although,
so far, he
acts as if he has always been an indoor family pet. His previous
owners stated
that he was not housebroken. He has spent about 18 hours in
his new foster home
and has had no accidents in the house nor has he shown signs
of not being
housebroken. When let out to do his “business“,
he gently scratches on the door
to come back in. Last night he brought us his leash and seemed
to want a walk.
Boudreaux is a handsome, deep red boy. In photos the flash
captures the golden
highlights and he appears a lighter red than reality. His coat
is very thick and
full. He must have been incredibly hot living outdoors. He is
a bit overweight.
He only weights 80.5 lbs but you cannot feel his ribs at all.
Boudreaux gets along well with other dogs. He was a bit skittish
when he first
met my dogs but when walked together he accepted them quickly.
They are not yet
playing together but a laying around together with no problems.
He was raised
with cats and another dog.
Boo spent his first night with us in a crate. He did fine.
He had more of an
issue with the stairs than with the crate. He apparently has
never used stairs
before and was confused by them. Going up was easier than coming
down but he
tackled them.
He is such a nice dog. I look forward to the day he finds a
happy home to spend
his life in. He deserves the best! If you are looking for a
“love sponge” to
come into your family and have been approved to adopt, please
contact his foster
family through GSGRR.
