ADOPTED 3/11/17!!!
I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will considier one of our other great dogs. Thank you!
Sweet Dantea found herself in a scary place, all alone and abandoned in a high kill shelter in Louisiana. She is estimated to be about 12-18 months old and believed to be a Golden/Flat Coated Retriever mix. Part of the fun of adopting a mixed breed is trying to guess what went into the DNA. Whatever is was, the mix produced one wonderful dog! Dantea is incredibly affectionate and has nice manners - she does not jump up and even keeps her kennel clean. She is described as "sweet, playful, and a quick learner!" While she is a little shy at first, she warms up quickly and is happy to spend time with her humans. She would make a wonderful running or walking buddy and would just love to be included in her adopters’ daily activities.
Weighing in at 37 lbs, Dantea is a magnificent looking girl and is sure to turn heads when she’s out and about with her adopter. She has a black glossy coat that is thick and plush, with the tiniest bit of a white splash on her chest giving her a one-of-a-kind look. In addition to being beautiful, she is a sweet girl and simply wants to be in a home where she is loved and given the attention she deserves. In return, Dantea will provide you with companionship and unconditional love. Unconditional love – isn’t that what we all wish for?
Dantea 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. She will be ready to come north to her forever family on March 11th.

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.
