My story

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

A beacon of hope shines bright as GRRAND and animal advocates across the commonwealth collaborate to help rescue animals trapped in a devastating hoarding situation on a rural County Kentucky farm. Advocates eagerly await justice for the abused animals and the swift rescue of those still suffering in inhumane conditions.

This is Webster, one of the rural county hoarding dogs and he is believed to be a Lab/Golden/Great Pyr mix and we are happy to report this guy is truly thriving! He still is working on the fact that all things are new for him, but he is doing great as his foster family says:

"What does it take to unlock a dog's full potential? For Webster, it was love, care, and patience. This shy neutered one year old boy has evolved into a happy, outgoing companion, exceling in leash walks, stairs, and crate training. Webster is housebroken and car-ready, loves dogs of all sizes and has won over all people he meets. Now, he seeks a home with a confident dog and patient family to continue his growth. He is ready to bring joy to his new family!"

Webster will need a home with an above ground securely fenced yard as he is considered a flight risk due to life of formerly living on open land. He will need a family with the time and patience to work with him through any insecurities he may have.

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!
