We are excited to introduce you to Noel and Saint Nicholas, affectionately known as “Nick.” These wonderful dogs came to us from the Eastern Shore,. This year alone, we have rescued over 70 dogs from this shelter.
Noel and Nick were surrendered by their previous owner, and we estimate their ages to be between 3 and 5 years. We’ve received a fantastic response about them, and as we continue to learn more about their unique personalities, we can say they are adjusting well in their foster home and are currently in the process of decompressing.
Both dogs are low-energy Golden Retrievers who enjoy lounging on the couch and relishing belly rubs. They love being close to their humans and are crate trained. While Nick can be somewhat vocal in his crate, especially when he knows someone is nearby, Noel remains calm and quiet. As a fun note, they may have indulged in a few too many Christmas cookies, so they could benefit from shedding a few pounds in the new year. Additionally, we have an upcoming spay and neuter appointment scheduled for the beginning of the year.
In terms of potty training, they have shown great accountability. Our Christmas wish is to keep them together, as we believe they thrive in each other's company. However, we understand the current economic climate may make this challenging. They would, of course, be fine on their own as well.
They are currently adjusting to the presence of other dogs in their foster home and are a bit cautious during introductions. Since it’s only been a couple of days, we recommend a slow and patient approach if you have other dogs at home.
If you are interested in adopting one or both of these lovely dogs, we would be thrilled to discuss it further with you! Our website for applications is critters4urescueinc.org
