Flat-Coated Retriever puppies and dogs in Spring Valley, New York

I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other dogs in need. Thank you! Through no fault of his own, this 2ish-year-old black beauty found himself in a scary place - a high-kill shelter in Louisiana. Being black in coloring, the color least adopted, Luigi's life was in danger. We will never know where this sweet boy spent the first years of his life. It is apparent that he was once someone’s pet, but his owner was not to be found. Luigi charms everyone he meets and will sit for a treat, shake hands/paws, and roll over for a belly rub. He has a great temperament and has never met a stranger. This young fellow has an energy level appropriate for a dog his age and will need an adopter who can provide him with adequate exercise, activities, and companionship. Luigi would do well with some training to help him become the very best version of himself. In return, Luigi will give you his unconditional love, 24/7, 365! One of our volunteers in Al shared, "He’s sooo gorgeous and has a happy spirit. He's not really keen on retrieving, but is getting the hang of it, as you can see in his video. Luigi loves to run and eventually settles after he runs around the yard, so a fenced yard in his new home would be wonderful for him. He’s in good health and has very white teeth that he likes to show off when he smiles! He totally loves affection." Luigi is good with other dogs, would enjoy playing with older children, but has no known history with cats. He has been brought up-to-date on vaccinations, is microchipped, neutered, and heartworm negative. Luigi has been given a Proheart-6 injection for 6 months of heartworm prevention. If you have it in your heart to give a gorgeous guy a loving and forever home, please consider Luigi. He will be ready to travel north in early May to be adopted. Please contact Cheryl Kewley if you are approved to adopt through SGRR. He is the most loving guy you will ever meet, and the most wonderful thing about Luigi is his heart and spirit. Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical. When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to become an important, forever part of their life journey by continuing the rehabilitation we have begun. If not yet approved for adoption, please visit our website to learn more and to submit an online application. Click here to visit our website. Please contact us with any questions regarding your application status. PLEASE APPLY by submitting an application via this online link: Click for Adoption Application 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.

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.

Meet Cosmo This adorable guy has the spunk and spirit of a typical pup. His mom was unfortunately run over and he had to have a little help being bottle fed until able to eat on his own. You would not know it by looking at him or in his glowing personality. Cosmo is always up for a romp during playtime. He is also one of the sweetest snugglers. Cosmo has grown to adoption age in the same wonderful household and his foster mom would love to give you all the details on his daily life. Cosmo is well socialized and would do great in a home with or without dogs and/or with or without children. If you are looking for a dedicated family companion, you can’t go wrong with this cutie. Once adopted, Cosmo will transport with Rescue Vet Transport to his new forever family (additional $185). If you would like to give him a life time of belly rubs please follow the link below to our adoption application. Please note, our volunteer team works very hard and they are very responsive so please submit your application only when you are ready to welcome your new furry friend. https://forms.gle/APKvbgFJcaRvgKgk9

Pupperoni IS a treat!! This gorgeous shiny and wavy black haired beauty has lots of energy and plenty of fancy moves, ready to go!! She is a very social girl that showed up at an apartment complex as a young pup and has been passed around the complex ever since. She grew into a large dog (and syill needs to fill out) with a lot of energy and finally somebody spoke up and asked Rescue to find her a more appropriate home than a small apartment. She pulls on a leash but knows how to listen and can walk well with just a little bit of training. She is good in a crate and currently live with cats! She loves everybody she meets and would make an excellent running partner or agility dog. She is very loving and very easy to take care of, love, loves her baths, and nails trimmed— she gets treated like it’s a spa day! Looking for an active lifestyle for this girl who could log many miles with you. She can learn to be off leash as the border collie in her leads her to run out and then circle back and check on you. For adoption application please contact irondawgs13@gmail.com

Want to look at this sweet face every day and just melt when he comes to love on you?  Our Sky Boy was born around Christmastime and at almost 4 months he is 25 pounds and headed to become a gentle giant of a boy.  Expected to grow to be 75 pounds this handsome pup with the most beautiful eyeliner that emphasizes his soft eyes, is ready for a family to love and to be loved by in return.  He was recently in a small town Shelter in Tennessee with his mom and sister, Sage.  No one comes to that little shelter very often and after a month or two of living there the staff reached out to Critter Cavalry Rescue for help to take them in to some of our foster homes and help them find their place in life.  Easily we found Sky Boy to be humble, gentle, a little shy at first and wonderful with a busy family lifestyle.  He is great with cats, dogs, young children and only a tad shy when first meeting tall adults!  HA!  His tan coat of short fur is soft and so nice to pet.  He has lots of yummy hugs that he wants to give you and all he needs is a little encouragement and confidence building in these puppy months ahead.  He is crate trained and getting the housebreaking rules and system down pat right now.  A fenced yard would be a necessity and definitely a bonus for him to run and play safely to his heart's content.  He is very receptive to training.  Joy and laughter with a lot of extra helpings of love is what Sky Boy promises any lucky family in the future.  Please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com if you are interested in receiving an adoption application or want to ask questions.  PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comApril 24, 2026, 7:25 pm

Meet McCoy – the sweetest little sidekick you didn’t know you were missing. At just 4.5 months old and 24 pounds, McCoy is a delightful mix of silly, snuggly, and smart. He may be a tiny bit shy at first, but give him a little patience and you’ll quickly discover his playful personality and affectionate heart. McCoy comes from a pretty interesting family tree! His mom is a Heeler/Beagle mix and his dad is a cream-colored Goldendoodle, which resulted in one very unique and adorable pup. He has the coloring of his siblings but favors his Beagle-mix mama in looks — with short little legs, a loooong Basset-style body, and a thick, medium-length coat that’s perfect for cuddling. Though he was born outside and spent his early weeks living outdoors with his parents and littermates, McCoy is now thriving inside a loving foster home. He’s learning all about family life — from the excitement of greeting you at the door (he gives the best welcome-home kisses!) to living with young boys ages 6 and 10. Every day he grows braver and more confident. At first, the big dogs in his foster home made him a little nervous — but now? He’s happily part of the crew. He absolutely loves to run and play outside, and fetch with tennis balls is quickly becoming one of his favorite games. And yes… he is SMART. You can just see those wheels turning. One of the most special things about McCoy is how deeply he bonds with his people. When his foster mom recently had a terrible migraine, McCoy instinctively curled up beside her and stayed close, offering quiet comfort. He’s not just cute — he truly cares. His activity level is beautifully balanced. He enjoys playtime and adventures, but he’s just as happy snuggled up right next to you. With a loving, supportive family, McCoy is going to absolutely bloom into the best kind of companion — loyal, joyful, and full of heart. He is expected to grow to around 45–50 pounds when fully grown. If you’re looking for a special boy who is adorable inside and out, McCoy may be your perfect match. To learn more about McCoy, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com. We transport from our rescue base in Nashville up the northeastern corridor of states to approved adopters. McCoy is ready to find his forever family — maybe it’s you. PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.March 7, 2026, 12:24 pm

This amazing puppy that has the beautiful golden smile and coat of a golden color as well, is called Gabriel.  Living his first 4 months of life in a 10X 10 outdoor kennel with his other 6 siblings, this boy never has had a chance to run and play and be loved on until August 15th.  The day his life changed and that of his 6 siblings, will be a special one for Critter Cavalry Rescue.   Their hard and cruel past is behind them and now a bright and shiny future is promised them as CCR starts posting all the wonderful girls and boys that are from that litter.  They are loving, some shyer than others, but all are hungry to be cuddled, played with and offered the chance to love their humans deeply and forever.   Having a yard to run and play in has been a first ever since 8/15.  Can you imagine the freedom and exhilaration that our boy Gabriel has been feeling?  He has a little foster girl to kiss and play with and other dogs and even some chickens in the backyard.  He has been neutered and shots started and dewormings under way.  The road ahead will be a breeze compared to his first 4 months.  Currently he weighs 25 pounds and is destined to be a 55 pound adult lovebug.  If you love his smile then you will love his heart even more.  Friendly and learning all the new things about this wonderful world of good food, a dog bed, chew toys and above all, humans who care about him.  What more could make a puppy happier?  Well all that is left to top these great changes is to have a family adopt him!!!!   Could that be you!?  Please email us at ccrnewengland@gmail.com  We adopt locally in Nashville, TN area where he is fostered and we also offer transportation to the northeast to families and homes that want to give our dogs and cats a better life.  Just let us know where you live!  We can get our boy there and close! PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.April 24, 2026, 7:25 pm
