Payson was a year and half
old when his family could no longer afford to
take care of him. They contacted Arizona Golden
Retriever Connection and Payson a 73 lb. bundle
of non-stop energy was picked up and taken to a
foster home. Within a month, Payson met what
would become his forever family. He arrived at
his new home and proceeded to prance around the
house, chase the ball in the yard and then he
discovered the pool. He would fly through the
air and dive into the pool. A Frisbee and a ball
become his constant companions. He would wake
his family up in the middle the night just to
see if they wanted to play. Payson was a player.
Within a week, Payson was a part of the family
and they could not believe someone had given him
up. He was high energy but not too high energy
for his new family. And added bonus was his new
family had a cabin, where else but Payson, AZ.
He loved the mountains and deemed himself, “King
of the Hill”. In the winter, Payson discovered
snow and loved to bury his face in it.
Today Payson is still high
energy but no longer feels the need to wake his
family up to play because he knows that tomorrow
he will get to play with his Frisbee and his
ball.
