My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Gabby is a 5 year old, about 50ish lb, Golden Retriever looking for a home that will have no kids under 16 and lots of time and patience to work with a frightened Amish breeder dog. She came to GRRAND through another rescue in Ohio that took in mass dogs from an awful situation. Gabby has proven to be very frightened and timid and needs a caring family who is willing to work with her on her fears and insecurities. She needs to go to a home with another stable/confident dog who can show Gabby the ropes and help to build her confidence. As she is so fearful, she is considered a big flight risk, and must go to a home with an above ground securely fenced backyard with direct access to the yard from the home.

Gabby is very sweet, but needs to learn people are here to love her and care for her, and this will take time and patience from her new family. She will also benefit from her people being home more than the average working family.

We will update as we learn more, but if you would like to meet Gabby, please fill out an app at GRRAND.org

More about this rescue

Early in 1994, members of the Greater Louisville Golden Retriever Club began to see the need for an organization to rehabilitate and find homes for displaced and abused Golden Retrievers. A number of folks in this club began organizing an ad hoc rescue group. As the number of rescues increased over a period of months, this “wet behind the ears” group came up with a name and in 1996, incorporated the organization now known as Golden Retriever Rescue & Adoption of Needy Dogs (GRRAND). The rest, as they say, is history!
