Friends of Golden Retrievers will meet at 9 am this Saturday (Aug.5th) at the Lancaster Park Dog Park off of Willows Road in Lexington Park.

If you have a dog that suffers from fear of thunderstorms or being left alone or of other dogs, you’ll try anything. Here’s some current info on “Thundershirts” that are sold in PETCOs and online.

Thundershirt maybe

Andy Carter

Andy was adopted by the Carter family last weekend. Andy’s new mom couldn’t be happier. In this picture Andy is saying, “I am a Golden Retriever and I WILL get two tennis balls in my mouth one day. It is my birthright to be so talented. “

Received the following note and pictures from Sadie’s dad.

“A few pics of Sadie and the “pack”. She is still the worlds greatest lover . We got her a thing called a Thunder Shirt .Calms her right down when ever she starts to get anxious . She is a great dog . Thanks for having her available when we needed each other.”

Ed

Ed and Linda Thwaites adopted Sadie in 2008. You might remember her as “Miss December” in the first rescue calendar.
