Welcome to Sunshine Golden Retriever Rescue, LLC.
We rescue Golden Retrievers who have been abandoned, abused or given up by their owners. We are a network of volunteers dedicated to finding the best possible homes for Golden Retrievers and Retriever mixes in need.
We carefully select homes based on the needs of each individual Golden. Our adoption process begins when a homeless Golden Retriever is brought into rescue. Each dog is first provided a medical assessment and any necessary treatment including spay or neuter, heartworm, and vaccinations. We begin evaluating each dog's personality and temperament from the moment they are welcomed into our rescue.
We attempt to assess each dog's behavior with other dogs, children, adults, and other animals (when available). We observe our dogs, to determine as best we can their degree of house training, crate training, leash walking skills, knowledge of commands, ability to ride in cars, general activity level and exercise needs.
From this information we are able to select the home best suited for each dog. During fostering time, their behavior is evaluated to see how they interact with other animals and people. They are kept in foster homes while their medical needs are being attended to. This information is used when selecting an appropriate adoptive home. |
