My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Adopted 6/8/14!!!

Foxy is a 2 year old sweetheart who was picked up as a stray in AL. It is amazing that no one came looking for this adorable girl. We believe Foxy is a Golden mixed with 100% cuteness, but your guess is as good as ours! She is a stunning shade of reddish gold and has the silkiest feeling fur you could imagine. Foxy loves to be petted and she especially loves belly rubs. She will grin from ear to ear when you rub her belly! Foxy is good with other dogs, but likes to be fed separately from other pets. Foxy charms all the people she has met and has the most bubbly and friendly personality EVER! She has a little sparkle in her eyes that just makes you smile! She minds well, but if you have to correct her, Foxy will put her head down and get a look on her face as though she is saying, “Uh-oh… I’m in trouble…” She is just so endearing! She even gets along fine with cats and enjoys children.

Foxy is on the petite side at about 31 pounds and is a nice sized dog who could do well in a home or an apartment. She would be an excellent companion for an active adopter who wants a smaller sized pal for a hike, walk, or run. She walks nicely on a leash and enjoys being out and about. And when you are done with your activity, she’d love to curl up in a dog bed or up in your lap. She keeps her kennel clean and has not had any accidents at all. Foxy loves to play with toys and has a soft stuffed snake with a squeaker in it that is her favorite. She will run to fetch a ball but does not get the concept of bringing it back again.

Foxy is up to date on her vaccinations, heartworm negative, spayed, micro-chipped, and is headed to CT to be fostered. Do not wait – this foxy lady is ready to grab her leash and “go home!”

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.



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.



SGRR Adoption Fees (subject to change)**
Puppies under 6 months $650
Young dogs 6 months - 6 years $550
Young dogs - Special Needs $450
Senior dogs 7 - 9 years $450
Seniors dogs 10 years and older $350
Senior dogs - Special Needs $300
Young Bonded Pairs $850
Senior Bonded Pairs $750

**Please note: The fees listed represent a slight increase and are effective for applications received after June 1 2014. We regret the need to increase the fees for our dogs, but found it necessary due to the increased costs we are faced with for each dog's care and placement.



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.



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.


Please be a ray of light for this Sunshine dog and make a tax deductible donation toward medical and other expenses. Every cent of your generosity goes directly toward the care of a Sunshine dog.
