Thank you for stopping by to see the dogs ready for adoption.
There are typically between 35 and 45 dogs in our program at any given time – some will stay with us longer than others as they overcome their medical or behavioral challenges.
Please note: Purebred Golden Retrievers in our program will likely have a date restriction. The date restriction deadline typically corresponds to the date the dog entered our program and, if applicable, will be listed on the dog's individual page. Any applications received after this date will unfortunately not be considered.
Thank you for your understanding and support in providing a loving home for our Golden Retrievers.

Meet George, the absolute sweetest boy and lover of all people and pets! George spent the first few years of life primarily outdoors, but has entirely different ideas now! George has endless amounts of love to give and snuggles to catch up on!

Agatha
If you’re looking for a dog who will simply slip into your life (and your heart), I might be your girl. I’m a sweet, easygoing Golden Lab/Basset mix who loves a good walk, a comfy couch, and having a person to call my own. At 10 years old, I’ve already mastered the important stuff, so all that’s left is finding you.

Martha Washington
Sweet Martha Washington found herself in a sad situation when her beloved owner passed away. No other family stepped up and she found herself scared and alone at the shelter, but not for long because we were quick to scoop this gal up.
-

Albania Gilda
Meet Gilda! She’s a sweet girl with a big smile and even bigger charm! She's calm, affectionate, and always on her best behavior. Gilda's on a journey to a healthier weight to help her feel her best for years to come.

Jess
At just 8 months old, Jess is finally getting the chance to learn how to be a puppy. Her first months of life weren’t what they should have been, so she’s making up for lost time with lots of curiosity, playfulness, and enthusiasm for life.
-

Abe
Handsome Abe is a 3 year-old Golden mix with a smile that can light up a room and a heart full of loyalty. This sweet boy loves his daily walks and is happiest spending time with the people he knows and trusts. Once you're part of his circle, you'll have a devoted best friend for life.

Loudon
Loudon is a big, fluffy bundle of personality who’s full of charm and affection. He loves giving kisses, chasing squirrels, and happily “booping” you for attention before nuzzling his way into your space for extra pets. With his striking looks and playful spirit, he’s sure to steal your heart.
-

Owen
Owen is a one-of-a-kind hound mix (Bluetick Coonhound, German Shepherd, and Great Pyrenees) who has been waiting far too long for someone to see how special he really is. This boy is affectionate, smart, goofy in all the best ways, and absolutely lights up when he’s with his people or out exploring the world.
A generous benefactor has covered Owen’s adoption fee, helping to pave the way for a smooth and happy transition into his forever home.
