Story
Oscar is a 2 year old, 80ish lb male Golden Retriever looking for a home that has plenty of time and patience to work with him on basically... everything. Oscar sadly was a "farm" dog who just ran free with no direction or socialization, and he needs BOTH. He was surrendered to GRRAND as his people told us "He is a farm dog that unfortunately wont stay away from the neighbors chickens so we have had to keep him penned up, and we don't think he should be penned up". Oscar's new family MUST be fully committed to giving him the structure he so desperately needs so he can be a good boy.  We are still learning about Oscar, so please check back for more info later, but if you would like to meet him, please fill out an app at GRRAND.org   ##2609094##

Story
Nuggie is a 7 month old, male Golden Retriever looking for a pretty specific type of home, so please read carefully before applying! This pup is needing an experienced ADULT ONLY household with no visiting young kids or grandkids as he has a history of resource-guarding, and this is not anything to take lightly even with Nuggie being so young. He is doing better now, but Nuggie is still in the working stages and GRRAND is being very careful with where Nuggie is placed. He will NOT be considered for any family with kids, so please understand.  Nuggie is treat motivated and knows simple commands, and he MUST have a family 100% committed to training with him, and giving him plenty of structure, exercise and direction, as this is what he needs. Nuggie has been placed in a home where he resourced something as simple as a pine cone, and it was not positive. He is with GRRAND and by being where he is, he has not been given an opportunity to practice resource guarding. Practice makes perfect... he is not there, but the progress is positive and in the wrong hands, he would’ve gotten better at resource guarding, but his environment does not allow that. Today he’s well adjusted, is not resource guarding his food, plays great with a tennis ball and gives it back. He plays well with other dogs, and has been socialized with a variety of different people and is getting worked with everyday. He is a good boy, and the goal is to make sure he is ready for his forever home. He will need an above ground secure fenced yard to romp and play in in a safe environment. He is very trainable as he likes it and responds well to it and he is also house-trained and crate-trained. We are still learning about Nuggie, but if you feel you are that adult dog savvy person who has the time and patience and are fully committed to keep up with Nuggie's training, please fill out an app at GRRAND.org ##2528850##

Story
Bingo is a 1ish year old, male Golden Mix at about 40ish lbs looking for a new home with his BFF Marcy, as his family lost their home in the E KY flooding just recently. This is a sad story for everyone, but Bingo and Marcy's family reached out to GRRAND for help, and we will help them find a great new forever family. Now, as Bingo came in with Marcy the Doodle, and we did not think they needed to be adopted together, but we were wrong! Bingo went to a home without other dogs and didn’t do well as he MUST have Marcy! He was anxious and then started resource-guarding the mom against the dad, so sadly, he was sent back. When he returned to the kennel and was reunited with Marcy, they were both ECSTATIC to see each other and have been so happy since! Bingo is much less anxious with her, too, as he finds comfort and stability in Marcy. She is a real stable dog and is going to help Bingo and she loves him, too! Bingo ad Marcy must go to an adult only household with no small kids. He is very nervous around kids and needs a calmer environment. We are still learning about this little guy, but we do know he will need a family that will have the time and patience to work with him and be committed to giving him the exercise and direction he needs to be a good boy. He is still young and will need plenty of supervision and activity. He does get along with other dogs, and is said to get along with cats too, but GRRAND has not cat tested him. They are so sweet and if you would like to help Bingo and Marcy get out of the kennel, please fill out an app at GRRAND.org   ##2313510##

Story
Toretto is a 4 year old, male Golden Retriever about 65ish lbs, sadly being surrendered as his family is in a place where they can't give him the time, exercise and direction he really needs and deserves.  He is crate-trained (sleeps in it at night and when left alone) and house-trained and "He does love to 'dance' as we call it. He wants to jump on his hind legs to dance and give hugs." Toretto is very friendly and still acts like a puppy. He has lots of energy and his family just does not have the time to give him the energy outlet he needs. He minds her commands but he does jump on people - behavior she said she hasn’t been able to stop. He currently lives with 2 kids... 6 and 10 years old who have been with Torrento since he was 2 months old, so he has been around kids his whole life. He gets along well with other dogs and is said to have visited a home with a cat, and he ignored the cat. (GRRAND has not cat tested him) He has tried to escape the yard, but it is believed it was out of boredom. His new family will need to have the time to give him the energy and exercise outlet he needs to keep him happy and out of trouble. This boy is a typical young and very lovable Golden looking to get lots of affection, be social and have fun with his family. He is smart and learns quickly so he will adapt to a new home with some training and help with adjustments. Another dog to play with or someone who is willing to walk him and/or is willing to play with him in the yard is what he needs. (Some rough and tumble young boys to roll around with would be good for him too LOL) If you would like to meet Torrento, please fill out an app at GRRAND.org  ##2607789##

Story
Looking for a loyal, loving companion who’s as sweet as he is handsome? Meet Kai a 3-4 year old Golden Retriever/German Shepherd mix with a smile that melts hearts and paws that love to “tap dance” when he’s excited. Kai is a friendly, affectionate, and gentle soul who has never met a stranger. He’s a polite treat taker and a big fan of belly rubs, leisurely walks, and spending time with his people. With a moderate energy level, he’s always up for an adventure but just as happy to curl up beside you when it’s time to relax. Kai is wonderful with kids of all ages and enjoys the company of other dogs, but he’d prefer a home without cats. His ideal family will give him lots of love, daily walks, and a comfy spot to nap. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with a golden heart and a gentle spirit, Kai might just be your perfect match.

Story
Meet Heidi - Your New Best Friend! Age: 7 years Breed: English Cream Golden Retriever Weight: 90 lbs Good with dogs: Absolutely! Requires another dog in the home Fence Required: Yes No cats, please! Special note: Takes thyroid medication twice daily (about $25/month) Heidi is a lovable and gentle soul with a heart as golden as her fur. At 7 years old and weighing in at 90 lbs, she’s in the prime of her life—perfectly content to lounge inside or run around the yard, especially if she has a furry companion to join her! Though she’s a fan of chilling indoors, she’s also playful and enjoys some fun in the sun. Be warned, though—if Heidi gets bored, she might dig a little to keep herself entertained! Heidi is house-trained, spayed, up to date on all her vaccinations, heartworm negative, and microchipped. She’s on thyroid medication, which she takes twice a day, but it’s a manageable cost of around $25/month. She’s a sweet, affectionate girl who would be a great addition to any home that’s ready to give her the love and care she deserves. Ready to bring Heidi into your family? You’ll be glad you did! Heidi's Adoption fee is $350
