Arizona Golden Rescue

23-090 Guero was originally a street dog in Guadalajara, Mexico. He was taken to a local shelter in Mexico and advertised on the Internet. A contact in another Arizona rescue group alerted us about this little Golden mix. That rescue arranged to have a purebred Golden transported here from Mexico and offered to bring Guero along. He was vetted in Mexico, but because Maricopa County will not accept out-of-country vaccines, we had to have those redone. Cute and friendly with everyone is how this little 1-year-old, 16-lb boy has been described. An AGR foster couple fostered him for a few days and he turned out to be one of their favorite fosters. He was placed with an adopter in Cave Creek; she recently adopted 23-052 Millie (now Cookie) from us and has some cats, so Guero, whom she renamed Queso, will have several animal companions. The AGR foster mom commented: 

We are really going to miss this little guy. He was quite happy to be at the adopter's home – he and Cookie get along wonderfully. He saw the cats, though, and was a pain trying to catch them. The adopter is not worried; she has a great set-up and the cats will be safe. She is a great mom and we couldn’t ask for abetter adopter. 

Update from the adopter: He is calming down around the cats finally! It’s been so much fun. Cookie and Queso are getting along very well and love playing together. It’s been pretty much non-stop. Once he shuts off for the day, he’s a total love bug and curls up right on my lap.
