Golden Retriever rescued from Turkey makes a name for himself in East Tennessee

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Guinness the Golden Retriever is a regular visitor to the healthcare facilities across the Knoxville area. He’s a celebrity among doctors, nurses, and reception staff. But, most importantly, he’s valued by the patients he visits.

The person that helped Guinness’ fame reach a pinnacle is his owner, Foster Arnett. 

“Guinness is from Istanbul, Turkey. He was born over there and was homeless for about two years, living on the streets,” Foster said. 

Guinness and his dad visit eight facilities a week. They have logged more than 1,000 hours over more than 800 visits over the course of the last 4 years.
