I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other dogs in need. Thank you!
Is there anything sweeter than a Golden Retriever puppy?? We don’t think so and Morgan is proof positive!
Morgan is a 10-month-old Golden Retriever who is joining the Sunshine family. When she was just 14 weeks old, Morgan’s Mom scooped her up from a breeder with the intent of working with her. Sadly, not long after, Morgan’s Mom fell ill and recently passed away. Due to his own health issues, Morgan’s Dad is unable to care for Morgan and so this sweet little princess finds herself looking for a foster family and/or an adopter.
Morgan is best described as affectionate, playful, and pretty. Unlike many young retrievers, Morgan has a more moderate energy level. She is wonderful with children, has lived harmoniously with as many as 4 other dogs, and currently enjoys the company of 2 cats. She adores people! Although she can be a bit hesitant with men at first, she warms up very quickly.
When Morgan came from the breeder, she came with a fear of cars and loud noises. Her Mom knew that and, as an experienced trainer, planned to work with her to overcome her fears. Unfortunately, Morgan’s Mom did not have a chance to work with this little girl, so she continues to be fearful. Sunshine is looking for a foster family to begin Morgan’s rehabilitation and an adopter to continue it. Morgan will do best in a home on a quiet street with a resident dog or two to continue to mentor her and build her confidence.
Morgan weighs about 50 lbs., is spayed, heart worm negative and is up to date on her vaccinations. She is in New England and available for a foster family and/or adoption immediately. If you are looking for a sweet companion dog to share in your adventures, Morgan might be the perfect fit for you.
Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical. When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to continue the rehabilitation we have begun.
If you would like to be part of Morgan's rescue story, and you have already been approved for adoption through SGRR, please contact
Michelle to be considered to adopt Morgan. Note: Puppies require a great deal of time, attention, patience, and a sense of humor. We can only consider applications for puppies from folks who are home most of the day.

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.

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.
