Sunny-Sunshine Arrives at Golden Pines

A hot, bright summer day full of sunshine has brought us a new boy with the same name--Today we welcomed Sunshine, or Sunny for short to Golden Pines.  He was given to a shelter by his elderly owner who could no longer care for him.  The shelter was told he was twelve years old by the owner.  However a vets office who first saw him (not my vet) swear that he's more like two. I think he might be around ten.  Sunny, who knows the answer is proving to be good at keeping a secret and isn't telling.
Someone who is not so good at keeping a secret is Cissy.  Your good thoughts have made a difference and she's feeling much better and is telling me and anyone else who will listen to her all about it.  Her energy level and appetite have almost returned to what it was previously. But she's seeing the vet on Thursday just to make sure there's not something else going on.
I hope whatever you have going on, that it's a good week for you!

  4. Welcome Sunny or Sunshine to Golden Pines. He will definitely be a happy boy and well taken care of. Thankfully Cissy is feeling better and hopefully everything will go well at the vets.
    Love the last photo. They look like real children playing tug of war.

  11. Whatever age he is, he now has a place to call home. Closer to ten, I suspect .

  14. Cissy will have told Sunny all about the TLC, vet visits, love in abundance, special food treats and so much else, he will enjoy your place so much, and although sad, I'm happy his elderly owner realised he needed another home, parting would have been so hard. I'm so glad to see Cissy is doing better. Cheers from Jean

  24. Sunny sure doesn't look like he's 12 to me! He looks young. He's a lucky dog to be with you. And, I'm thrilled to hear that Cissy is feeling better again!

  25. I agree, Sunny looks like a younger dog. Your guess is probably closer than the vets.

    Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

  30. Wow another lucky dog!! Love the name.

    You know maybe it was just the heat with Cissy, some people just don't do well with the heat and I'm sure some dogs don't either.

    Fingers crossed that all is well with her.

  35. Howdy Mates, we LOVE the name Sunny. It brings a sense of pleasure and good times. We're sure your new boy Sunny will do the same. He's a lucky boy to move in with your pack. Isn't it sad when elderly folks have to give up their pets. Makes me tear up a little.
    No worries, and love, Carol (and Stella and Rory)

  36. You sweet thing-one more member of the pack and not batting an eye! You're a good "man" charlie brown :) but how in the world could they be off by 10 years on the age??? too weird! Hope all works well with Sunny and that the crew all gets along great.
