Jazz has been purchased from Kulta
Golden Retrievers Kennels at a special discount rate
for our organization. After performing a temperament test,
he showed to have great potential for success in our program.
Thank you Patti, for your support!
Jazz arrived to us on April 11, 2004. This handsome boy
is easygoing, eager-to-please, curios and joyfull....and
a cutie!
After being in a beautiful horse farm for his first 4 months,
coming to the city would be an adjustment for many dogs.
Jazz seems to blend right into it all as if he's seen it
all before. Went to a couple of stores yesterday and handled
himself very well. Glad to be petted by friendly people
and happy tail wagging.
