My story

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

All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped. 

* If you are interested in a dog, please first read the biography on the dog (keep scrolling down for the bio!) and then go to our website, www.dpsrescue.com for an application. Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.



This dog will be at Palo Alto Pet Food Express on Saturday, December 21st and Sunday, December 22nd from 12-3pm or until adopted. If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered.

 

Adoption Fee: $1000

 

*Goldilocks adoption fee will help DPS cover our ever-growing medical bills. If you’d like to help us cover dogs like Roadie, you can donate here: https://www.zeffy.com/fundraising/0dfb1ce0-3081-42a3-9ec2-9349de905c5f*

 

 

Goldilocks is an 11 week old Golden Retriever ready to find her “just right” forever home! Goldilocks was rescued from the shelter as a surprise addition to our volunteers. The shelter staff asked if we could take an extra puppy and she instantly melted our hearts! We scooped her up and promised to find her the absolute best forever home in the entire world! Goldie has that perfect Golden temperament and looks and is just fabulous! She will be a medium-large sized adult pup. Ready to embark on the adventure of a lifetime? Adopt Goldilocks! 

 

Goldilocks is the most perfect puppy in the entire world and is the most deserving of her namesake. If someone was going to barge into a strange home to test the food, it would be Goldie. She has no fear at all and is super confident for her age. She’s never met a stranger she hasn’t won over instantly. She’s a great cuddler when she’s tired but other times it’s go-go-go. Goldie loves being with her people but is also down to keep herself amused when she needs to. She tackles the stairs with ease and wanders around her foster home like it’s her own personal castle. The world according to Goldilocks is one big toy. She loves to play and has the best zoomies we’ve ever seen, and trust us we’ve seen a LOT of puppy zoomies. Goldilocks would love an active home ready to take her on a lifetime of adventures. She is incredibly smart and would be a pro at taking on physical, as well as mental, stimulation every day. No hike or beach trip or camping adventure will be complete without Goldilocks’ playful and goofy energy. We know that you’ll fill endless photo albums with all the fun bucket list items you check off with Miss Goldilocks!  

Goldilocks is your typical high energy, playful puppy. She wakes up around 6:30 AM and heads straight outside to potty before making it known she’s ready to eat. She has two big bursts of playful energy - in the morning and in the evening- and spends the rest of the day alternating between chewing on her toys and crashing hard. She loves her playpen which is stocked with all the toys an adorable puppy could ever dream of. Goldilocks eats three times a day and gets plenty of snacks during the day as well. Bedtime is around 11 PM, although she's known to wander off and crash earlier if she’s had a particularly playful day. 

Goldilocks loves other dogs and is obsessed with the resident cat in her foster home. She is super playful and loves humans as well. Honestly she loves anything whether alive or inanimate, our girl is just the happiest of campers! Goldilocks will require continued training and socialization in her forever home. She loves bringing gifts in from the yard for her people so prepare for a collection of flowers! Adopt Goldilocks today!

 

 

Goldilocks is only an option for homes who have owned a dog in the last 5 years. Kids should be over the age of 7.

More about this rescue

We are passionate folks who love dogs and love people! We strive to make the most appropriate match between human and canine. Because our dogs live in foster homes we know about their temperament and personality and therefore can help families and individuals decide if the dog is a good match or not. We are excited to help people find the right pooch for them and look forward to meeting great folks and welcoming them into the DPS Family.
