My story

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

Dom came to the kennel in mid-December after being taken in by a shelter after he was found running loose with another dog, and they were out of room and called GRRAND.



He is a 2 year old sweet, gentle giant, mostly Golden Retriever, but mixed with another large breed dog. He currently weighs almost 90 lbs, but needs to pack on another 10 lbs.



He loves to be petted. He loves most other dogs (not dominant male dogs). He plays every day with Solara and Aurora! We are walking him off premise and he does great on leash. He's had no accidents in his kennel run despite the suspicion we have that he spent most of his time outdoors before coming to us.



He falls in love with his people quickly, and will cry when we leave him!. We think he'd do best in a home where people are around a lot of the time.



We are still about Dom, but we know he's ready to go to a forever home (or foster) and if you would like to meet him, 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!
