Story
**Please note this is pet is currently out of town pet but we will transport this pet to OR for you when adopted. All fees listed include transport fees.** Meet Georgie Jumbo! 🐾💛 Georgie is a 1-year-old Golden Retriever/German Shepherd mix with a big heart, a goofy smile, and a whole lot of charm! This smart and playful pup is the total package — affectionate, curious, and always up for fun. Currently weighing about 35 lbs, Georgie is expected to grow to around 50–60 lbs. He’s full of puppy energy and joy, and he absolutely loves playing with other dogs. While he hasn’t met cats or kids just yet, his intelligence and eager-to-please personality suggest he could warm up to them with proper introductions and training. Georgie is crate-trained, doing great with house training, and learning more every day. Like any young pup, he’s still polishing his manners — but he's off to a fantastic start! If you're looking for a loyal, cuddly, and fun-loving companion to grow with, Georgie Jumbo might just be your perfect match! Interested in becoming a forever home for Georgie Jumbo? For immediate consideration, please fill out our online adoption application: http://www.friendswithfourpaws.org/adoption-form.html This is the first step in our process, and we DO NOT go any further without an application. If there are multiple dogs that you are interested in, please fill out an application for each dog. This does not include bonded pairs, one application will be fine. We have different adoption coordinators working with different dogs, and your application may be missed if you only apply once. Find more adoptable pets, news and information on Instagram @friendswithfourpaws or our Facebook page Friends with Four Paws . We put a lot of time and energy into processing our adoptions to find our babies the best fit home for them and you. Please do not submit an application if you are not serious about adopting Georgie Jumbo. We are so excited to work with you to find you a new forever friend, and Georgie Jumbo the perfect forever home, and appreciate you working with us. Our adoption fee is $525. This includes their spay/neuter surgery, full (age appropriate) vaccinations, microchip insertion and registration, deworming, heartworm testing and prevention, flea and tick prevention and travel expenses. All of our dogs are rescued from local shelters and the general public. Each dog is then placed in a foster home where he/she is kept for quarantine, to ensure if the dog gets sick it can receive proper treatment. We have foster homes in the NJ/NY area waiting to receive their fosters. Once an animal has received an application or there's an adopter interested, we make arrangements for transport. If a dog is already in foster care in NYC/NJ, an adopter will be put in touch with the foster home AFTER an application is being processed. Thank you in advance for your patience with our process and for making adoption YOUR option!

Story
Doug Lucky is the definition of why people love Golden Retrievers. He’s got that face, the soft eyes, the forever-happy expression, the kind that makes you melt on sight, and a personality to match. If you’re a golden lover, Doug Lucky is exactly what you’re hoping for. Watch his video and you'll quickly fall in love with his Golden heart: https://youtu.be/2Z32ZWaa1cQ?si=0jHhlKcyzw2_-cVC It's fairly safe to say that Doug Lucky's DNA runs deep in the Golden Retriever family but with rescue, it's always a mystery and there are no guarantees. He is approximately 4 years old and currently weighs 90 lbs. This boy has the body to match his Goldie lock fluff. Even with his size, he is so gentle and has the best happy go lucky personality about him. He’s incredibly people-loving and greets everyone like an old friend. With other dogs, Doug Lucky is friendly and social, rocking a bouncy, joyful play style and especially loving a good game of chase (even if he’s a little slow… enthusiasm counts). He’s the kind of dog who just wants to be included and have fun. He is currently fostered in a home with other dogs as well (golden's just like him) and he gets along great with them too. They are like the 3 golden musketeers. When Doug met our house cat Biggie, he met him appropriately and was very respectful around him. Doug gave Biggie a few sniffs and then was back to strutting his stuff and saying hi to everyone. He did not chase Biggie and Biggie felt comfortable around him too. We do not know if he has ever lived in a home before with a cat. If you have a cat in the home, we can arrange for her to have a sleepover with a cat upon request. Just let us know! Doug Lucky is also wonderfully well-mannered. He’s crate trained, potty trained, and already knows how to sit. He’s eager to please and easy to train, making him a great match for people who appreciate a dog who truly wants to do the right thing and make you happy. That's what this Golden boy really is all about, making you happy. On walks, Doug Lucky does great on leash and is happy to stroll the neighborhood or explore new places. He'll pull every now and then when he wants to say hello to a friendly face and he may even attempt to immediately go in for a hug LOL! He just loves everyone, he can't help himself. He rides beautifully in the car and is always ready to tag along for an adventure. That said, he’s just as content being a couch potato, soaking up love and relaxing by your side. Doug Lucky strikes that perfect balance. Laid-back, affectionate, friendly, and fun. He’s a textbook Golden Retriever in the best possible way and he’s ready to bring loyalty, laughter, and a whole lot of love into his forever home. Doug would love to go to a home that has a backyard where he roll around in the grass, soak in the sun during nice weather, and play with his tennis balls. He loves to play fetch and he enjoys being outside. Not as much as we love to be snuggling on the couch with you though. He might love that even more. Doug is an easy going fella and is an adaptable boy that knows how to match energies and be what you need him to be. If you’ve been waiting for a golden with a heart of gold, Doug Lucky is ready to meet you. We are willing to test Doug Lucky with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
