I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other great dogs. Thank you!
Pretty Autumn is an 8-year old, 65-lb. Golden who is looking for an adult-only home. She adores people and craves attention, but little tykes are just too much for her. She is a typically happy, bouncy Golden who is sweet and enthusiastic, but she recently snapped at a young child at a birthday party when she was cornered. Because her current owner has a young baby, she felt it best to find Autumn a home where she won’t be stressed by little ones.
Autumn is accustomed to living with other dogs and lived with a Husky most of her life. She enjoys being the center of attention and will thrive in a home where she feels special, so living as an only dog would be no problem for this princess! She is crate trained and sleeps in her crate at night. She enjoys running in her fenced yard, and will benefit from work with her leash skills along with more frequent walks. She was very excited to go for a walk with our volunteer and grabbed the leash, tugging her along for the first block! Autumn knows a few commands, and LOVES car rides.
Autumn is spayed and up-to-date on her vaccinations. She is currently in MA and is ready to meet you! This happy girl will be great for someone who can focus on her, and give her the loving attention she deserves.

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.
