Hunter was rescued from a kill shelter in
South Jersey the day before he was due to be euthanized.
Why? Because no one wanted to adopt a dog who was blind in
one eye. No one wanted to give this smart, affectionate pup
a chance. The blindness didn't bother him at all…why
should it bother anyone else?
Hunter moved in with one of our foster
families while GRRI-NJ looked for the perfect family. He
learned how to ring a bell when he wanted to go out, got a
refresher course in basic obedience, and above all, got
attention and love. He just blossomed.
Then GRRI-NJ heard from a family in
Connecticut who was looking for a Golden. Their previous pal
had died of cancer and they felt if was time to open up
their hearts and home to a loving Golden who might not be as
fortunate as some of the puppies and dogs from successful
breeders.
It was love at first sight for everyone
involved. Hunter now spends his days hiking, fishing and
helping with the gardening. He has truly gotten a second
chance at life.
