Adopted 3/28/14!!!
Chloe is a beautiful, healthy, purebred Golden. Currently 8 years old, she was adopted by a Sunshine family 7 years ago. Sadly, her human parents are divorcing and she has come back into Sunshine's safety net to find a home where she will be loved for the rest of her life.
Chloe is a wonderful Golden! She is well behaved, knowing basic obedience commands, and walks well on a leash. Chloe has a moderate energy level and a knock-out smile! Her weakness is her Golden "exuberance," demonstrated by her jumping up to greet people now and then. She has lived in CT with a fully-fenced yard which she enjoys. She loves car rides and has even taken car trips to Virginia. Chloe loves all people, especially children. She has been living with children ages 13 and 3 and she adores them. She gets along well with most dogs, but not all. Nor is she a big fan of cats! Having lived happily as an only dog with all the human attention she can soak up, we would like her to go to a similar situation.
Our SGRR volunteer who dog sits Chloe reported, "She is a love bug..... So sweet with people....she's super snuggly and was curled up at Wayne's feet all day yesterday when he worked at home. She only jumps up when you first walk through the door. We started working with her and she was getting it quickly that she only gets attention if she sits. She just needs a little training but is super smart and eager to please! She'd be a great hiking companion even at 8 years old....!"
Chloe has been well cared for and has been kept up to date on her vet visits, vaccinations, and monthly heartworm and flea/tick preventatives. If you have no other pets in your home and would like to add a loving, happy Golden girl to your life, please apply for Chloe!

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.
