# Dogs Just needed a place to put some notes on dogs. We're adopting a new puppy this spring and I'd like to learn as much as I can about training and care. Since the better half works with special education, we'd like to get the dog certified as a service animal so that we can work with kids. ## About **Mom - Zoey** Moore Retrievers - https://www.mooreretrievers.com/about https://www.facebook.com/mooreretriever/ Carolynn Moore 4008 Poors Ford Rd Rutherfordton, NC 28139 315-276-5773 A.K.C #s - OFA - https://ofa.org/advanced-search/?f=sr&appnum=2313924 MOORERETRIEVER'S ZOEY - SS17601202 F GOLDEN GOLDEN RETRIEVER Born Feb 14 2020 Sire: SR99157504 - Granddad - Blue Aubreys Golden Dam: SR86644701 - Grandmom - Justin N Jerry's Lizzy **Dad - Adger** Carolina Goldens - https://loyalgoldenretrievers.com/about-us/ https://www.facebook.com/carolina.goldens.1/ Danielle & Randy Scruggs 4369 Chesnee Rd, Rutherfordton, NC 28139 (828)863-4542 Videos of parents - https://www.youtube.com/@randys6799 Adger - ( Moore Retrievers’ Zoey ) https://4x521b.p3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Adger-1.jpg ### Names: The surname Adger is likely of English or Scottish origin.
