My story

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

Adopted 1/4/14!!!

Six year old Golden mix Sara is described as “a doll” by her foster mom, who has fostered close to 100 dogs in her lifetime. She goes on to say, “Too bad I am not looking for another dog because I would like to have her in my pack. She is very easy for us and fits into our lifestyle. She has had no accidents in the house and is trustworthy. She is good on leash, good in the car, good in the crate, and does not chew so she really does not need to be crated. Sara does not try to jump or dig out of the yard and sticks close to the house. She gets along with her canine foster siblings, Mae and Truman. This delightful girl gets very happy when it is din-din time! Whoever adopts Sara should have an easy time with her!” She is good with kids and loves everyone she meets. She is an excellent cuddle muffin too!

Sara is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, and is under treatment for heartworm now. She will be ready to head north to be adopted in early-to-mid December.

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.


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.
