My story

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

Solara and Aurora are 1 year old, female Great Pyrenees littermates who were surrendered to GRRAND by their owners who could not care for them. They came from horribly sad conditions in very rural KY where they had been abandoned along with some chickens and goats. They were filthy, starving, very very thin, and full of matts. But our awesome grooming team trimmed them, bathed them, and now they are showing just how beautiful they are!



GRRAND kennel staff says: "Even though they've had a rough start to life, they are so sweet, gentle, and generally adorable! They seem to like other dogs, and are very calm." 



They will be looking for a family that will have the time and patience to work with them, as they have never known the good life a dog should know... living in a warm and loving house, having a warm bed to sleep on, a family who loves them and are devoted to their care and well being. These girls are very deserving and are waiting for you! They will be needing a home with a secure fenced yard, as Great Pyrenees like to hang outside and roam and patrol and they do this best in a secure environment. There are lots of similarities between Goldens and Great Pyrs, and it may be good to do some research if you are interested in meeting these girls. 



We will update as we learn more about them, and we do know that they are very happy together, but if you would like to meet them, please fill out an app at GRRAND.org

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!
