Beauty was turned into a shelter in Mississippi with her momma and sister by their former owner, who could no longer care for them. She is about 8-10 months old and believed to be a Golden/Flat Coated Retriever mix. Beauty came north on 2/27 to a family with a "foster with intent to adopt" option. While they find Beauty to be a sweet and loving girl, their 13 year-old Golden Retriever is feeling overwhelmed by this young and energetic pup. Therefore, Beauty is still in need of her forever home.
Beauty is a very active pup and would make a wonderful running or walking buddy and would just love to be included in her humans’ daily activities. Beauty likes to run around with her puppy happiness just exuding from her being. She jumps up to get close to you, but she jumps up lightly. Lisa shared, "Beauty loves it when you pet on her and talk to her sweetly. She will be still when you do that and look you right in the eyes. She just soaks up affection. She is a very sweet girl and will need an adopter who will work with her and teach her leash skills, manners, and give her the exercise she needs."
This magnificent looking girl is sure to turn heads when she’s out and about with her adopter. Beauty has a glossy coat consisting of the most beautiful hues of black and reddish gold. Lisa, our volunteer in AL, told us, "Beauty's name totally fits her; She is BEAUTIFUL!! She has bits of reddish coloring on her ears and she is just so unique looking!" In addition to being beautiful, this girl has a tender heart and simply wants to be in a home where she is loved and given the attention she deserves. In return, Beauty will provide you with companionship and unconditional love. Unconditional love – isn’t that what we all wish for?
Beauty presently weighs about 40 lbs. She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and micro-chipped. She is good with other dogs, but has no known history with cats. Beauty is currently in CT and awaiting her forever home. Please Note: Puppies require a great deal of time, attention and patience. We can only consider applications from folks who are home most of the day.

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.
