I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other great dogs. Thank you!
Expect to be stopped and asked, “What kind of dog is that?!?”, should you be Meegan’s lucky adopter! Her coat is the color of scrumptious chocolate and has all the other qualities of the coat of a glorious Golden! She is one of the most exquisite looking dogs we have had in our rescue. We believe Meegan to be a Boykin Spaniel/Golden Retriever mix, but whatever it was that went into her DNA, it produced a real show-stopper!
Meegan was found roaming around in Stockton, AL in mid-February. The shelter held her and waited for her owners to come get her, but no one came to claim this adorable fluff-ball. Meegan has been sad and puzzled about why she has been abandoned and her spirit was crushed. The staff at our vet’s office, where Meegan is staying, has worked so lovingly to help this little lady feel secure and doted upon. Meegan would love a home where TLC is a specialty and where she will never need to worry about being deserted again.
Meegan is about 2 years old and is a pint-sized gal, weighing only about 25 pounds. She is so cuddly you will just want to carry this little baby doll around – and you could! She likes other dogs but is submissive and initially reserved. She is even tolerant of cats. Meegan adores children, but very active and rowdy children might frighten her. A quiet home where her humans are home more often than not would be just perfect for Meegan. She just wants to be where ever her humans are and is very affectionate. She needs someone who has the time and patience to help mend her beautiful spirit and to help Meegan feel loved, once again. She has a ton of love to give and will make an extremely loyal and adoring pet.
Meegan is spayed, micro-chipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. She is presently undergoing heartworm treatment, but will be ready to head north to her forever family in mid-to-late April. She is eager to “go home” where she will be a cherished member of a family.

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.

**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.
