My story

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

Barkley and Finley are a very bonded pair of littermates who have lived together their whole lives, (8.5 years old) and they are definitely the BEST OF FRIENDS. You won’t be able to get enough of watching these two play as they have so much fun together and are so fun to be around! Sadly, they are looking for their new home at no fault of their own, and their family says: "Making this decision has been heartbreaking, but it comes from a place of deep care and responsibility. We want them to have the stability, companionship, and attention they deserve. Our hope is to find a home where they can continue to thrive together and be surrounded by consistent love and presence."



Barkley (around 70lbs) and Finley (around 60lbs) are housetrained, and have full run of the house when left alone, know basic commands, and are eager to please. And, of course, they are super sweet! They do have that doodle energy, so walks and plenty of exercise and play is what they need. They get along well with other dogs, and we have no information on interactions with cats at this time. They are a bonded and beautiful duo who have a moderate to high activity and they are looking for a home committed to the time they need to exercise and give them all the TLC they can handle.



Both dogs love playing in the yard and watching for Squirrels out the windows. Barkley is a teddy bear who loves to cuddle. Finley loves belly rubs. Both dogs enjoy being brushed, which is good because they also enjoy rolling around outside.

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!
