Golden Retriever puppies and dogs in British Columbia

Chi Chi is a sweet, sensitive girl who has endured far more than any dog ever should. She came from a situation with many other dogs and carries the scars - both physical and emotional - of having had to fend for herself. Because of this, Chi Chi has made it very clear during her time in shelter that she much prefers the comfort of calm, trustworthy people over the company of other dogs. She is not suited for dog parks or dog‑to‑dog play, and she will truly thrive as the only pet in her new home, where she can finally feel safe and be the center of someone's world.Despite her difficult past, Chi Chi's gentle spirit shines through every day. She loves to cuddle, loves being close to her people, and has a soft, affectionate soul that reveals itself the moment she feels safe. The world is still new to her - many everyday experiences are unfamiliar and can feel overwhelming - but with patience, understanding, and a trauma‑informed approach, she continues to blossom.Chi Chi is looking for a calm, quiet home with an experienced adopter - someone familiar with under‑socialized or fearful dogs who can help guide her through house training, leash skills, and building confidence at her own pace. What she needs most is a family willing to celebrate small victories, offer steady reassurance, and give her the stability she's never had.In return, Chi Chi will offer quiet loyalty, gentle affection, and the deeply rewarding experience of watching a deserving dog learn what it means to feel safe and loved. If you're ready to change a life - and let Chi Chi change yours - she's ready to meet you Primary Color: Red Brown Weight: 26.7 Age: 5yrs 0mths 3wks

EMERGENCY FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED – DENNY  Central Point, Oregon (near Medford, OR) Denny is a young Golden Retriever who arrived from Korea just a few days ago and is in urgent need of a new foster or adopter due to a home mismatch (not a behavioral issue). Meet Denny — The Sweetest Golden Retriever Looking for His Forever Family!   Name: Denny Age: 4 years Sex: Neutered Male Breed: Golden Retriever Color: Gold Weight: 31 kg Height: 66 cm (shoulder height)   Rescue Story Denny was rescued in February 2025 after being placed on the euthanasia list at a city shelter. He stayed at a private shelter for several months and moved to his foster home in June. Since then, he has blossomed into the most affectionate, people-loving Golden boy.   ‍‍‍ Socialization with People Denny is an incredibly affectionate dog who loves everyone — familiar people and strangers alike. • He leans in for pets, rubs against people, and loves belly rubs. • He is excellent with children under 13 and is comfortable being lifted or handled gently. • Even with new people, he often rolls over to show his belly. • He enjoys being near people during downtime, though he prefers sleeping alone. • He can be very enthusiastic — sometimes running in for hugs or kisses, which can surprise those not used to big friendly dogs! • No issues with baths, paw cleaning, or handling. He tolerates teeth brushing but isn’t a fan.   Socialization with Dogs Denny is friendly and polite with other dogs. • He approaches both familiar and unfamiliar dogs to greet and play. • He matches well with medium to large dogs and enjoys playful interactions.   With Cats • He watches cats with curiosity outdoors, but when guided by his handler, he follows direction well and continues walking. (He may be suitable for a cat home with proper introductions.)   Energy Level • At first glance he seems high-energy, but his stamina is moderate. • After 3–4 hours of outdoor activity, he often falls asleep as soon as he gets in the car. • During play with dog friends, he starts energetic but will bark to set boundaries when he becomes tired or overstimulated.   ‍ Walks & Outdoor Behavior Denny is a joy to walk. • He has plenty of leash experience and doesn’t pull. • He loves sniffing and will naturally slow down or stop to explore scents. • He becomes excited when he sees the leash — may jump or mouth the leash — so calming him before leaving the house is important. • He loves balls and toys; he can even find hidden balls in grass and often brings home any he discovers during walks!   Other Behaviors • No resource guarding toward people or dogs. • Rarely barks. • Calm in a crate and knows how to get in/out of the car by himself. • Sometimes refuses to get in the car after walks because he wants to stay outside longer. • Mostly potty-trained outdoors. • If he has stomach discomfort early in the morning, he will wake his person up to go outside — letting him out promptly helps prevent indoor accidents. • Occasionally gets soft stool after eating too many treats.   Denny Is Looking For… A family who loves Golden Retrievers’ affectionate, goofy, people-loving personality. Someone who enjoys outdoor activities, understands his excitement around walks, and can provide structure, companionship, and lots of love.   If you think Denny could be the perfect match for you, please submit an adoption application!

These boys are like our children. They get walked twice a day and we even cook for our dogs. But we are now battling cancer and must leave the country often for treatments. When we do, we are forced to put them in a kennel. That's no way to treat ones children. These boys need some children for company or someone like us that loves to go for runs. I know the fee is high, but it comes down when we can see evidence that our boys will be loved.

Hi everyone, I am the super-active Soda Pop and here's some information about me: Age: 5 yrsBreed: Golden RetreiverWeight: 110 lbsHeight:  23 inchesGender: Male I am a high-energy, affectionate and loyal guy who loves being close to people and receiving lots of activity and attention. My perfect owner will be an active experienced person who can provide multiple daily walks, mental stimulation, and lots of companionship. As I form a strong bond with my people, I don't do well when being left alone for too long. When I get bored or lonely, I may become a bit destructive. I am friendly with people and familiar dogs, but can be reactive toward unfamiliar dogs, so I need confident handling and therefore I'm not suitable for first-time owners.  Some time ago I had an incident with another stranger dog which was more related to my tendency to get overstimulatied. I'm not generally an aggressive guy.  Currently I live with two other dogs in our home and I have no issues with them at all. In fact, I am calm and respectful towards them in our shared space. I am capable of positive and stable relationships with dogs I know and feel comfortable around. My reactivity tends to pop up when I meet new dogs, especially during first encounters or in high-energy situations. Having enough space and gradual introductions helps me to manage my behaviour. My owners had me vaccinated, and I am in general good health, crate-, house- , and leash-trained. Not to show off or anything, but I also know some basic commands. I am still working on not jumping during greeting and leaving food that's not mine, alone. Some obedience refresher training would be great! An active household with time, structure, and experience with high-energy dogs would be just perfect for me. My current owners are seeking to find a stable, loving forever home due to family circumstances. I need daily exercise, mental stimulation, obedience refreshers, reactivity training around other dogs, and calm-alone/crate training to stay balanced and well-behaved. I get along with:Dogs: Yes, with proper slow introCats: NoKids: Not sure Health notes:I am fully house trained, neutered, microchipped, my shots are up to date. My adoption fee is $550 plus applicable taxes. Disclaimer: It is important for all applicants to visit our website, http://www.lovedatlastdogrescue.ca/adopting/ and read about Loved at Last Dog Rescue. Please Note: LALDR highly encourages adopters to research some local dog trainers before their dog arrives. Although a 1-on-1 trainer is often not needed, it is good to have someone in mind in case any problematic behaviours arise. Most bad behaviours can be modified if caught early enough, so make sure to nip undesirable behaviours in the bud before they become serious problems. Basic training should be taken seriously, but should not begin until your dog is well settled in - at least a couple of weeks. After you feel your new dog is relaxed and comfortable in their new home, check out training courses in your local area. Even basic beginner courses like those taught at a local pet store can have a huge benefit in helping your dog learn to socialize and get used to being in public situations, all with the added benefit of strengthening their bond with you. The age and breed of a dog is usually an educated guess, so we are not able to guarantee the accuracy of age or breed of our dogs. Information included in the profile is provided to us from the international rescuer or local fosters. LALDR does not have access to overseas dogs and cannot always verify the accuracy of their descriptions. Every dog is an individual and can act differently in different situations based on the person adopting them and the environment in which they live. Normally, we will not approve adoptions to homes with children under 12 years of age. However if a dog has been determined to be good with children we will approve applicants with children 8 years or older. More information can be found on our website. ##2630776##

My name is FLASH and here is a little info about me:Breed: Golden Retriever/Husky mixAge: 3 yrsGender: femaleWeight: 26 kgCountry of origin: Middle EastHighlight(s): Nurturing, gentle, intelligent Wondering how I got my name? A strikingly unique characteristic of multi-colored eyes is why. Just have a look at my photo. Flashy, isn't it?Almost three years ago, on a hot summer afternoon, my rescuer was returning home from work when she noticed something white moving in the distance. As she got closer, she realized it was a little angel — a tiny puppy with two different-colored eyes.So they rescued a beautiful baby girl, me! The moment they saw me, they laid down on the ground and I started wagging my tail happily. They prepared some food for me and began searching for hmy mother. They asked the security guards nearby, and they told her the heartbreaking truth: my mother and sibling had died, and I was the only one who survived.They couldn’t just leave me alone, so decided to keep me safe within the area and take care of  me. That was how my journey of survival began. I am now at a shelter where I am kept safe, unlike when I was on the street.I absolutely love eating and also I enjoy playing with puppies and other dogs. One of my cutest habits is that I love lying down — even when I eat my food. Silly, don't you think?Although I have never had puppies of my own and was spayed at one year old, the moment I see puppies, I naturally turn into a kind, gentle, and devoted mother figure. My nurturing instinct is truly special. I do well and am gentle with children too. Kitty catties are a no though. They are just too fun to chase.I have basic leash experience, though it is still limited, so further training wil be needed. I am very intelligent and understand commands such as “sit” and “come.” I am quite trainable.In summer where it is very hot here, I mostly lie down during the day and becomes more active at night, when I sometimes howl. In Autumn/Winter, I am active both day and night and enjoy moving around more due to the coolness.I await a safe, loving, and permanent home, where I can finally feel secure and loved forever.
