Hi, I am Molly. I am a five-year-old golden retriever. I obtained my degree through Mama’s Doggie School of Love and Support (unofficial). More officially, I have participated in the American Kennel Club. I provide those around me with love and support through a gentle approach. Life is ruff, and I like showing love and kindness to those around me. I believe in patience, playing fetch, and welcoming new experiences with curiosity and kindness.
