My story

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

Cyclone is an 8 year old, female Labrador mix weighing about 45lbs. She is looking for a home where she will be the only dog and get all of the attention she can handle. 



She is a very smart girl and knows lots of commands and one would think she knows the human language with the words she has learned! Her release word after being told to wait is "tractor pull", when she is to go to her crate, she is told "in your house", and "cookie" when she gets in her crate. She sleeps on the bed at night and is house-trained and crate-trained. She is quite the lap dog too, and when she gets restless, she is told to "settle". This pretty girl does get freaked during storms, and she finds her space to go for comfort, and is there until she is ready to come out. 



We are happy to report she is in a foster home and they say: 



Cyclone, (we call her Dolly round here as Dolly fits this gentle girl so much better... but for GRRAND records and communications, she is still Cyclone)
Cyclone is a sweetheart who’s happiest in a calm home with her special person. The world can be a little scary for her (cars, busy places, loud noises), but when she’s home? She’s all cuddles, zoomies, and relaxed. Here are a few things about Cyclone:                                                                                                                                                                                                              She Loves snuggles and cozy time
She loves to do Zoomies in the yard, especially in the snow 
She is fully housebroken and an excellent communicator
Tennis balls = yes (retrieving = no LOL)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    She is a true girly girl who prefers women and good “girly pop” music
Cyclone would be perfect for an older adult or anyone looking for a quiet, loving companion. She’s coming out of her shell and has so much love to give."
 



She can be leary of strangers in the beginning, but once accustomed to you, she is very loving, but its best not to force it. She is a very independent girl and does things on her time. There is no knowledge about cats, other animals or children, so a home where she is Queen of the palace is best for Cyclone. 



She is looking for a chill home to live out her best years as the only dog with her people.

More about this rescue

Early in 1994, members of the Greater Louisville Golden Retriever Club began to see the need for an organization to rehabilitate and find homes for displaced and abused Golden Retrievers. A number of folks in this club began organizing an ad hoc rescue group. As the number of rescues increased over a period of months, this “wet behind the ears” group came up with a name and in 1996, incorporated the organization now known as Golden Retriever Rescue & Adoption of Needy Dogs (GRRAND). The rest, as they say, is history!
