Golden Retriever puppies and dogs in Stamford, Connecticut

We often say that God knew what He was doing when he created puppies to be so darn cute! We imagine Jax's young owner could not resist his sweet puppy face. But life changed for that young person and he left Jax with his grandparents who, unfortunately, found his energy level to be too much for them to handle. Instead of working with him on manners, they relegated him to life in their backyard. This sweet love muffin is a diamond in the rough and an adopter who is willing to dedicate time to training Jax will be greatly rewarded with a WONDERFUL dog! Jax is with a professional trainer right now, who will start him on his way to becoming the best dog he can be. He shows such promise and is a loving guy who is ready to bring brightness to his new forever home. Jax is an affectionate Golden mix (maybe with Duck-Toller*) who is about 2 years old and is an energetic 45 lb. puppy in his heart. He is so charismatic and is the first dog you will see in a room full of dogs or people - friendly, outgoing, loving. Jax wants to be your new best friend the minute you meet him. If you are looking for a loyal companion who will follow you everywhere then Jax is the fella for you! He is good with other dogs but has no known history with cats. This boy loves to play with toys and enjoys his chewy bones!! He is up-to-date on vaccinations, micro-chipped, heartworm negative, and neutered. All that is missing is a place to lay his sweet head where he will know that he is home, forever. He should be ready to come north in mid-January. (*Often the Duck-Toller breed is mistaken for small Golden Retrievers but they are a breed unto their own. Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers are energetic and are extremely intelligent thinkers. Once they accept you as their leader, the bond will last forever. Duck Tollers are affectionate and loving with family members and are very patient with children.) 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 you would like to be part of Jax's rescue story and are already approved to adopt through SGRR, please contact Cheryl Kewley to be considered to adopt Jax.

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.

I have an Adoption Pending, but hope you will consider one of our other dogs in need. Thank you! Toby came to our rescue through the good deeds and kindness of several animal lovers. He was once a beloved companion, but his owner in MS passed away and that left Toby in need of a new home. Toby is a stunningly beautiful boy who has the kind of face that you could just picture on a box of dog biscuits! But he is more than just a handsome face; he is a wonderful Golden mix who longs to be the center of someone’s world, with a typical “love me” Golden attitude. Toby is estimated to be about 4 years old and is described by Heather, one of our volunteers in AL, as a big goofy puppy! "He is a fluffy, sweet guy who tries to dance with me and then puts his paws around me. Seriously, it's like he's saying, "Hey girl!" He likes belly rubs and is one handsome fella who loves treats!" Toby is good with other dogs and weighs in at around 75 lbs. This Golden mix has been neutered, brought up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and micro-chipped. Toby should be ready to go north to be directly adopted in mid-January. Toby has been given a Proheart-6 injection for 6 months of heartworm prevention. If the companion you are hoping to add to your life is one that is affectionate, deeply trusting, happy, and beyond beautiful, then look no further - you've found him!!! If you are approved to adopt through SGRR, please contact Cheryl Kewley to be considered to adopt Toby. Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical.

Hello everyone, I'm a 4.5 year old 65 pound Golden Retriever that is looking for a family to give me lots of love. I’m very shy at first. In my past life I was pretty sheltered so I haven’t been exposed to much of this big world. I’ll need you to be a bit patient with me as a I learn to trust and experience new things. I really enjoy being pet though and I’m learning what love is; and It’s really great!! I’ve lived my whole life with other dogs, so a home with another dog would be best for me so they can show me the way. I’m sure I’ll gain confidence really fast if I have the help of a doggie brother or sister. In fact, I’m sure of it! I made some friends at the shelter already and I love going for walks with them! Speaking of siblings, I’m not to sure about little humans, so a home with young children is probably not for me. I’m really excited to start a new chapter in life and I know there are some awesome people out there just waiting to love me and give me the life I deserve. If you want to share a quiet, simple life with me, I’m ready! Thank you so much for your interest in adopting a dog from A New Chance Animal Rescue (https://anewchancear.org). We are a 501c3, tax deductible organization. ANCAR is a foster-based rescue, and we adopt within a 90 mile radius of Bedford Hills, NY. You will find the adoption application here: (https://anewchancear.org/adopt/adoption-application/). All fields on the application must be completed. Please read about the adoption process (https://www.anewchancear.org/adopt/our-adoption-process/) so you'll know what to expect when you submit. Our dogs are in foster care and we do NOT have a shelter or boarding facility. AN APPLICATION MUST BE COMPLETED IN FULL AND APPROVED BEFORE A DOG CAN BE MET. This is a firm policy. Our busy volunteers are not able to respond to questions about the dog or dog meeting requests in the absence of an application. We know these dogs very well because they are in foster care. Please read the profiles of the dog(s) you are interested in prior to submitting an application. If there are specific requirements stated (ie: Fenced Yard or Canine Friend Required) these are included because they are vital to the happiness, health, safety and adoption success of that dog. We are only able to save as many dogs as we have foster homes (https://www.anewchancear.org/foster/faqs/) and resources for. We provide medical care including vaccinations, testing, deworming, spaying/neutering and microchipping before transporting our dogs. We provide all supplies, preventatives and any follow up vet care necessary while they are in foster care. These costs are high and the number of lives we can save is entirely dependent upon donations from people like you. We do not receive funding from private foundations or government sources. If you can find room in your heart to help us, with any amount, we are truly grateful (https://www.anewchancear.org/help/donate/). We are a 501c3 organization, so all donations are tax-deductible. It is only through the kindness of supporters like you that we are 'changing lives...one tail at a time' by providing our dogs with 'A New Chance.' (https://anewchancear.org) Thanks so much.

Allie is a beautiful & lovable Golden Retriever mix and has all the qualities that make her a wonderful pup and family member. She's just over a year old and weighs approximately 55 pounds. She has a loving and fun personality and loves everyone and every dog she meets. Her favorite toys are her teddy bear and her ball that she loves to play with. She walks well on a leash and with some practice she'll be perfect. She also loves going for car rides. She's up to date on all her vaccinations, fully housebroken and crate-trained. In other words she's perfect and deserves a happy and fun family who will love her and take care of her forever. We think Allie would love to have a doggie sibling and would do best with a fully fenced in yard. Reach out to Long Road Home Rescue (lrhrescue@gmail.com or 516-459-3509) to get more info about her. We know she's going to be very popular so if you're interested in her we highly recommend you complete an Application that you'll find on the LRH Rescue website (LRHRescue.com)
