Adopted 2/23/14!!!
Maggie May is a beautiful blonde 6-year-old Golden girl who is new to our rescue. Her former owner's elderly mom came to live with her and was allergic to the dogs. Thus, Maggie May and her sister Gloria were put outside. Maggie was made to live in a shed with a pen and Gloria was tied on a rope in a carport. With the recent frigid temps in AL, this was a totally unacceptable way for these two girls to live. Thankfully, their former owner sough out SGRR's assistance to find new homes for the girls.
Maggie May is good with other dogs and is house-broken. She is a bit too interested in kitties so a cat-free home would be best for her. Maggie May has a nice energy level and is just about the perfect age for anyone who wants and active dog but without that over-the-top energy. She is light blonde in color and has the prettiest face. Even though she was kept out in a shed, Maggie cried when our volunteer took her from the former owner. She has a kind heart and is just dying to be loved again. Maggie is spayed, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccinations. Maggie May and Gloria are not "bonded" and will be placed separately - making 2 families happy! Gloria needs to be spayed and vetted, but Maggie is good to go and will come north via transport on 2/21.

About Our Rescue
Before being approved to adopt, all potential adopters need to complete our online application and participate in our pre-adoption review process. The process includes the completion of an online application, a reference from the applicants' vet, a phone interview, and a visit to the applicants' home. The application process helps us determine what type of Golden would be best suited for the applicants' life style. In some cases, the specific dog you are interested in may have found a home before this process is complete or further assessment may find that this dog is not the right match for your family. We are regularly getting new Goldens in need of a home, so we encourage you to apply and get approved so that when the right dog comes along you will be ready.
A contract is signed the day of adoption. Under the terms of the contract, all adopters are required to bring the rescue to a vet within 7 business days. The dogs receive basic veterinary care prior to adoption. If your vet identifies an illness that an adopter is not willing to treat, then the dog is returned and a full refund is provided.
The information provided on each dog is based on observations of our vets, volunteers, fosters and when available, trainers. While we do our best to report any and all issues, SGRR does not make any guarantees as to the health or temperament of any dog. Dogs evolve differently in different environments and we cannot predict with any certainty how the dog you adopt will act in your home.
Many of our dogs are fostered in private homes and we do not have a facility to visit. We are committed to our dogs before, during, and after adoption! The rescue retains title to the dog and can never be released or sold. Should the adopters no longer be able to keep the dog, SGRR must be notified so that we can take the dog back into rescue and place it into another home. We reserve the right to remove a dog at any time should we find the adopter is no longer caring for their Golden in a way we see fit. Adopters then have to agree to follow up visits as needed.
