My story

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

I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other great dogs. Thank you!

Daisy and her two pups, Beauty & Pickles, were dropped off at an over-crowded high kill shelter in Louisiana by their former owner. When there is no “stray hold,” the dogs who are surrendered by their owners are put to sleep straightaway when there is over-crowding. Fortunately, a shelter worker reached out to SGRR quickly and Daisy and her pups are now safe. This golden girl is mixed with 100% of cuteness and is an absolute knockout. She is about 4 years-old and weighs 60 pounds.

Daisy is a loving and friendly girl who is truly happy to be alive and waiting on her new family. Poor Daisy had a rough time during the crucial phase of her heartworm treatment and it was touch and go for a while. Through it all, her gentle spirit has shined through and her tail would wag when Lisa would go to visit with her and take her special treats. Lisa reported how gently Daisy takes treats and that she has a soft mouth. Daisy and her pups were kenneled together until Daisy began her heartworm treatment. The vet staff told us that she would whimper and try to get to her girls when she was separated. Such a sweet girl with a very kind heart.

Daisy keeps her kennel clean and should transition well to doing her business outside in her new home. Her adopter will need to continue working with Daisy to fine tune her house manners, but she is an awesome dog who will become a wonderful companion! Daisy has been spayed, brought up-to-date on vaccinations, and micro-chipped. Since Daisy tested positive for heartworm, she in under heartworm treatment and will be ready to go to her forever home in mid-to-late March.

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.
