Story

Buster is a gorgeous Golden Retriever mix who is a young adult (about 2 years old). He lives with dogs of all sizes and gets along with everyone but he is dominant over food so I feed him separately. He also lives with cats and kittens and has never tried to chase them and doesn't really pay attention to them. He is low-to-medium energy in general but has the stamina to go on long hikes, etc. He is not a barker and not a jumper and not a bolter. He likes to be petted. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. Note: No dogs are advertised as potty-trained because most dogs need at least some re-training in a new environment and after being in a shelter/rescue environment/strays. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue (copy and paste into a new browser window) Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Spokane, Tacoma, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Bellingham) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Montana (Missoula) - Illinois (Vandalia, Springfield, Chicago) - Indiana (Spiceland, Burn Harbor) - Michigan (St Joseph, Battle Creek, Ann Arbor) - Wisconsin (Madison, Wausau, Eau Claire, Appleton, Milwaukee) - Minnesota (Minneapolis/St Paul) - Iowa (Des Moines) - Ohio (Columbus and London) - Pennsylvania (Erie, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) - New Jersey (Bedminster) - Nevada (Las Vegas) - Arizona (Flagstaff) - Vermont (Brattleboro) Vetting: neutered, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 3, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, heartworm tested (negative).

Story

Gentle Giants-Rudi is a handsome 5-year-old English Cream Golden Retriever with an old-soul personality who is part of a bonded pair. He weighs 112 lbs and is working toward an ideal weight of around 90 lbs. Calm, gentle, and sweet, Rudi is somewhat reserved but surprisingly affectionate. He seeks out cuddles without being clingy and loves to relax close to his people. He walks beautifully on leash and knows sit, stay, leave it, off, and down—his recall is selective but reliable. Rudi does well with dogs, cats, birds, and young children. He especially loves cats and happily follows them around grooming them. He’s allowed on the couch but not the bed. Rudi is a cuddly “mini polar bear” and a truly special boy. Kenna and Rudi are a bonded pair. Kenna is the alpha and they are affectionate, playful, and well-behaved together. They don’t require crating, aren’t excessive barkers, and integrate well with other animals and people. They’d make a wonderful addition to any family and have strong potential as therapy dogs.

Story

Sonny is blossoming more each day in her foster home, and it’s been a joy to watch her confidence grow. She’s learning daily routines, approaching new situations with less fear, and showing just how loving and loyal she truly is. A classic Velcro Golden, Sonny bonds quickly and deeply with her people and is happiest when she’s close—curled up beside you on the couch or sleeping on your bed at night. Sonny gets along beautifully with her canine foster siblings and requires a home with at least one stable, confident dog to help guide her. She absolutely loves zooming around, so a fenced yard is a must for her happy bursts of play. While she shows no prey drive around kittens, she prefers that other animals respect her personal space, especially around her face—so dog-savvy, respectful cats would be the best fit. In the home, Sonny is a wonderful companion. She does well being gated or in a playpen for up to four hours with no accidents or destructive behavior, though she does not tolerate a crate. She would do best with children over the age of 12 who can understand her boundaries and gentle nature. Sonny will do best in a calm, patient home with predictable routines and realistic expectations. She needs an adopter who understands that confidence and trust take time, and who is willing to let her move at her own pace. A quieter household with adults or older children would help her continue to thrive. As Sonny builds confidence in new environments, she’s looking for a loving family who will offer patience and encouragement along the way. In return, she will reward her people with unwavering devotion, deep affection, and the loyal companionship that only a Velcro Golden can provide. If you’re looking for a loyal shadow, a couch snuggler, and a dog who will make your house feel like home, Sonny may be the one you’ve been waiting for. 💛

Story

FOSTER HOME NEEDED IN WISCONSIN ONLY: I’m super friendly, snuggly, and I LOVE getting pets and cuddles—but I’m also full of energy and love to play! Walks, fetch, snow adventures—you name it, I’m in. I do have a mischievous side… I’m a certified counter surfer and a bit of a toy and clothing thief. I love collecting my treasures and taking them to my bed, so I need a home with older kids who can help me learn boundaries. I’m great with other dogs and love saying hi and playing whenever I get the chance. I haven’t lived with a dog full-time yet, but I get along with everyone I meet and would love a furry friend to run and play with. I’m looking for a family that can keep up with my energy, enjoy fun adventures, and still have plenty of time for snuggles and quiet moments. I promise, I’ll give you all my love in return!
