Dogs in Program

There are typically between 25 and 35 dogs in our program at any given time - some going through medical treatment of various kinds and who are not yet available for adoption. There are some dogs who will be in our program longer than others.  They might need special care and are designated as "special needs."  Read about our special needs dogs.

Referral Dogs (not in our program)

NRGRR provides listings for referral dogs as a service to the community, but does not screen dogs to determine their suitability for adoption. NRGRR makes no representations regarding the accuracy of the information provided by the owners/fosters and assumes no responsibility for the condition or behavior of the dogs.

Cheeto is a wonderful nine year-old, spayed, purebred female golden retriever. She's 70 pounds of sweetness and love with a beautiful soft golden coat.  Very healthy, great teeth!  Cheeto is very good in the house, is great with other dogs and knows basic commands.  She is just the perfect dog - affectionate but not needy, loves her people, calm and gentle, just active enough to be your buddy. I have to find Cheeto a new home due to changes in my life - she deserves a wonderful home with people who can give her attention and love.  Cheeto is in Raleigh with my parents, I'm in Wilmington and she could be adopted to either location.  Please contact me if you can give her a new home at gwilder@live.com

Please contact the Pender County, N.C. shelter if you are interested in this dog.

Beautiful eight to 12-month-old female golden retriever/labrador retriever mix in the Pender County, N.C. shelter.  She is very smart, sweet, good with adults, kids, other dogs and cats.  "Typical golden sweetness" and a happy-go-lucky personality!  Walks pretty well on a leash.
