Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Adopted in the south!!!
While Golden Retrievers are surely tops in our book, many of us also have an affection for additional breeds of dogs. This is true of one of SGRR’s founding volunteers in AL who has a love for St. Bernards. Knowing of Martha’s fondness for “Saints,” a cooperating shelter sent SGRR an email about a 9 month-old St. Bernard pup whose owner had her posted on a social media site – “Free, to a good home.” With this pup not yet spayed, this appeared to be a disaster waiting to happen should a backyard breeder adopt her in hopes of producing litter after litter of puppies. Sadly, we live in a world where there are already so many homeless dogs in shelters.

> Prissy is a beautiful Purebred Smooth-Coated Saint Bernard. She has been spayed, is up to date on her vaccinations, and is heartworm negative. Prissy is great with other dogs and lived on a farm with another Saint and two Great Danes. She is also good with children but with small ones she can accidentally knock them down, just because of her giant size and puppy personality. She still has some growing to do and will fill out to be a normal size female Saint. She shows an interest in cats but we don't think that she would hurt one. Prissy rides very well in the car. She pulls a bit on the lead and will need to work on that but all in all Prissy is a well balanced girl. If you are a lover of St. Bernards, this is one special pup – don’t wait to apply!
PLEASE APPLY by submitting an application via this online link: APPLY ON-LINE TO ADOPT through 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.
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.
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.
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.
