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.

Dogs Available for Adoption

  • Copper

    Meet Copper, a handsome 7 year old, deep red Golden Retriever mix with a heart as big as his fluffy tail.  Copper is the perfect mix of playful and chill.  He loves his walks, but when it's time to relax he's content watching the world go by from his favorite window or sitting by your side.  He is easy going, house-trained, and just waiting to be someone's adventure buddy.

  • Finnegan

    Finnegan is the sweetest, happiest, adaptable 2-year old Lab Mix who is looking for a home with a fur buddy to run, play and chase in a fenced yard.

  • Andy

    Young Andy is looking for a 4-legged big brother or sister who will continue to teach him how to be a loved family dog!  Andy is playful, SUPER SWEET and affectionate once he trusts you!

  • Luke

    Luke is an easy going dog who just wants to have his people around, get lots of head pets, and go for walks.  He should be the only dog in the house, but more than one person is optimal.

  • Owen

    Owen is a 1-year old bouncy, affectionate hound mix who loves adventure and other dogs. He has been voted best ears in the Triangle!
