== Early life ==
Angel was born an only puppy, a rarity in Golden Retrievers, at the kennel of breeder Barbara Shapley. Because she was missing an eye and a leg, the veterinarian recommended she be euthanized. But, Shapley did not have the heart to follow the advice and decided to find a home for her instead.〔Glenn Willey, A Furry Visitor to Memorial Hermann Southwest Hospital Is Recognized By the City of Houston, Memorial Hermann Hospital Corporate Communications, July 22, 2015 http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/a-furry-visitor-to-memorial-hermann-southwest-hospital-is-recognized-by-the-city-of-houston-300116906.html〕 As a member of the Golden Retriever rescue community, she thought Trish Herrera would be the ideal adopter.〔
Herrera had a long history of working with the breed. In 2002, she founded Golden Retriever Rescue of Houston. She had fostered more than 25 dogs, including an orthopedically-challenged Golden, Rosie, which she adopted.〔 Herrera had also served as an adoption coordinator and set up a fund to assist adopters with special needs dogs. Despite some misgivings, Herrera adopted Angel.〔
