I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other dogs in need. Thank you!
Clover is a 3-year-old retriever/ Pyrenees mix. She was picked up as a stray in Baldwin County, Alabama and went unclaimed. She is good with other dogs, walks well on a leash, and is well-socialized. She keeps her kennel clean and doesn't chew on her bedding or her toys. She doesn't jump much but if you turn your back on her when she does, she stops immediately.
Presently, Clover weighs 56 lbs and would be at a good weight at about 65 lb. She's super sweet and loving and has a gorgeous fluffy coat. The only time she barks is when she wants some pets. Lisa, our lead volunteer in AL, took clover for a ride in her car. She said that she was good as far as how she rode in the car but she was whining a bit. Lisa wondered if maybe somebody brought her in the car and dumped her that way. She said that if someone sat in the backseat with her while someone drove, Lisa feels Clover would become comfortable fairly quickly.
Lisa, also cat tested clover. She was very friendly toward the cat - sniffed her, sniffed her feet, and then laid down next to the cat. Good girl, Clover!!
Clover is negative for heartworm, spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and micro-chipped. She was also given a Proheart 6 injection for 6 months of HW prevention.
Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical. When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to become an important, forever part of their life journey by continuing the rehabilitation we have begun.

About Our Rescue
Before being approved to adopt, all potential adopters need to complete our online application and participate in our pre-adoption review process. The process includes the completion of an online application, a reference from the applicants' vet, a phone interview, and a visit to the applicants' home. The application process helps us determine what type of Golden would be best suited for the applicants' life style. In some cases, the specific dog you are interested in may have found a home before this process is complete or further assessment may find that this dog is not the right match for your family. We are regularly getting new Goldens in need of a home, so we encourage you to apply and get approved so that when the right dog comes along you will be ready.
The information provided on each dog is based on observations of our vets, volunteers, fosters and when available, trainers. While we do our best to report any and all issues, SGRR does not make any guarantees as to the health or temperament of any dog. Dogs evolve differently in different environments and we cannot predict with any certainty how the dog you adopt will act in your home.

A contract is signed the day of adoption. Under the terms of the contract, all adopters are required to bring the rescue to a vet within 7 business days. The dogs receive basic veterinary care prior to adoption. If your vet identifies an illness that an adopter is not willing to treat, then the dog is returned and a full refund is provided.
Many of our dogs are fostered in private homes and we do not have a facility to visit. We are committed to our dogs before, during, and after adoption! The rescue retains title to the dog and can never be released or sold. Should the adopters no longer be able to keep the dog, SGRR must be notified so that we can take the dog back into rescue and place it into another home. We reserve the right to remove a dog at any time should we find the adopter is no longer caring for their Golden in a way we see fit. Adopters then have to agree to follow up visits as needed.
Please be a ray of light for this Sunshine dog and make a tax deductible donation toward medical and other expenses. Every cent of your generosity goes directly toward the care of a Sunshine dog.
