My story

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

Meet Simon!! His foster family reports, "This 2 year Golden Retriever mix is the perfect snuggle buddy! Simon is great with all dogs and people. 'Of course I am!'

Simon needs to have a doggy sister or brother -- he is lonesome and becomes a bit anxious when you leave him alone. And he loves to have a four-footed playmate! He is a love bug and wants to be with you all the time. If possible Simon would sit in your lap all day long! He's a 70 pound lap dog! Simon needs a family with dog savvy kids, 12 or older, or no kids.

Simon is great on leash and loves the dog park! He even knows some basic commands like sit and shake. Attending an obedience class with Simon will not only teach him new basic commands, the experience will also further your bonding with each other. Simon is housetrained and trustworthy to roam the house while you are away. Simon has been known to chase kitties, so a home without them will be best for everyone.

To make a wonderful fellow like Simon your very own furry family member, apply today and our volunteers will be in touch. He would love to meet you and his new sister or brother dog too.

Many Golden lovers are not aware of how doomed black dogs, like young Simon, are when they are brought into the average animal shelter. Even "Black Goldens," as we call our wonderful mixes, often suffer such a fate. You and GRFR are part of the solution. Read more on our home page: "Help Fight Black Dog Syndrome" and check out the links too.
