My story

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

Adopted by AL foster!!!

Winni is a beautiful 9-year old Golden who is the victim of a divorce. She has always lived with one family and grew up with children who are now in their teens. Since the divorce, Winni is spending too many hours home alone while her Mom works and her teenage human sisters only see her occasionally. They have loved Winni dearly and came to the heartbreaking decision that it is best to find a home for Winni where someone will appreciate her and devote time and love to this pretty girl.

“WinWin” is good with kids, loves people and gets along with other dogs. She likes to play, and settles nicely with whoever is home; just happy to have company. She walks nicely on a leash and travels fine in a car. Winni has not yet been cat tested. She is a stunning girl with her light blonde fur. She is tall and not overweight at about 80 lbs. Her family told us she has not had any health problems, just the beginning of some arthritis; very common in dogs of this age. Daily supplements for Winni are recommended.

If you would like to add a beautiful Golden to your life and give Winni the time and attention she is missing, please do not wait to ask about her! Winni is spayed, up-to-date on her vaccinations, and ready of her forever 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.
