Loving
Foster Homes Are Vital to
the Mission of Rescue!
Open your Heart and Home today? |
Volunteering
your time as a Foster Parent is a rewarding experience...
and it means all the difference in the world to our deserving
Goldens, many of whom will come to know love and kindness
for the first time... in your home, your hands and your heart.
The Golden in your care may or may not have medical or recuperative
needs, which may mean their activity and play must be restricted...
but all costs are covered by GRRH.
Fostering
is an investment of your love, attention and care. And the
rewards are endless...
Please
open your heart today?

Passionate
volunteers are the soul of GRRH. And the number of Goldens
we are able to rescue is limited only by the depth of our
volunteer resources.
Please
consider offering your time, no matter
how limited, to one of our teams: Intake, Foster, Transport,
Adoptions, Communications and/or Events! Every task is important...
whether picking a dog up at a vet clinic or writing a thank
you note! Each minute invested is critical to our Goldens! |

FOSTER
RELATIONSHIPS PROVIDE OUR GOLDENS A FOUNDATION
Foster
relationships are vital to our Rescue
Mission, as they serve as both the foundation
upon which our Goldens establish a new life... and a bridge
between the fear and uncertainty of their past and the unconditional
love of their future forever home.
Our Goldens
often feel scared and distrustful, but as all Goldens... they
yearn to learn!
The foster home offers a secure home environment where they
learn of love, comfort, boundaries and manners. And the insight
provided by the foster relationship plays a key role in matching
a Golden with a forever adoption opportunity..
If you can help foster, even short term, please email
us. We can find you a dog that is a good match
for your home. We have them in all shapes, sizes, colors,
and ages! View them all
on our Available
page!
Foster
homes are the bridge between the Golden Retriever rescued
by GRRH and their new adoptive family. |
GOLDEN
RETRIEVERS
If you are considering including a
Golden Retriever
in your family,
please read
about the breed!
It's imperative,
not only for you but for the Golden, that you are familiar
with their physical traits, disposition and needs. |
|
|
OPEN
YOUR HEART TO ADOPTION
Consider the opportunity
of sharing your life
with a Golden Retriever! It's a serious commitment, but if
you open your heart, you will experience more love, laughter
and joy than you can imagine! See our gorgeous Goldens who
are available for adoption!
Please
note that adoptions are made to qualified candidates. Our
adoption requirements
are thorough and stringent, and our ultimate goal is to ensure
a proper match between the adopting home and the Golden. |

GRRH
is founded on the love and honor of Golden Retrievers. Inspired
by the joys and memories of sharing our lives with a Golden,
our volunteers give countless and tireless hours of time to
find, transport, foster, train and support and find loving
forever homes for those less fortunate.
As part of the GRRH Mission,
we often rescue beautiful and deserving Goldens that other
organizations overlook. For that reason, many of the Goldens
taken into the GRRH family are suffering in some way from
neglect or abuse.
We also opt for treatment protocols that are more costly in
order to minimize the impact on the spirit and lifespan of
our precious Goldens. Recovery time is often longer, and the
costs of such treatments are often staggering... but the investment
is worthwhile, as we watch each Golden recover and move into
the forever home they need and deserve.
And frankly, there's no more
honorable and fitting way to celebrate the life of a Golden
Retriever who's loved... than to dedicate time or funds toward
one who's so fortunate!
It is with your continued support
that we can continue to carry on our Mission.Together, we
can make a difference in the lives of the many Golden Retrievers
who desperately need our care.

you request.
