Golden Girl
Bronzy was born on 9th mar 2005, a bitch amongst six offsprings from her parents. Her parents were imported pure-breeds from Australia. Her parents’ owners were happy to give away four of the offsprings. They were all adopted next to no time the offer was made. Our luck, and possibly hers, one of the to-be-owners declined and we were most happy to fill in. I never thought I would have another dog after my labrador died from injury, rather pre-maturely when I was in my teens. However, my husband kept encouraging me and said that children and golden retrievers often make the best of friends. So Bronzy came to our home when she was two months old. She was shaking from fear, quiet and shy. She looked so miserable that I let her sleep in our bedroom the first night she came home. I was actually all wrong about her character. Before long, she was gulping everything in sight and tearing things apart. But that’s another story.
