As sweet as she can be

Sweet Hope is just as sweet as she looks. The 5-month-old Golden Retriever was left behind in a backyard with no food and water after her family moved out of their home.

Despite being abandoned and neglected, she has a wonderful spirit and still loves people. If she was small enough to crawl in your lap, she surely would.

She loves to play with other dogs, loves her baby pool and is learning to walk well on a leash. She's still a puppy, so continued training will ensure she becomes a great family member.

Care should be taken around small children only because she could knock them down with her wiggling, goofy play.

If you think you have space in your home and heart for her, call Kimberly Diedrich at 480-452-7997.
