Here's what the humans have to say about me:
I came all the way from Kentucky where a really nice lady drove me to here - Knoxville. So far the people I met are really nice and I am glad that I am finally safe. You see my family dropped me off at a shelter because I did not like living in the backyard - honestly, I was trying to escape but they kept catching me. All my friends told me there is a better life out there - you just have to find. Well, I think I finally did. So, here I am - 3 years old, all boy and I THINK I am 1/2 Golden Retriever and 1/2 Irish Setter. I do have a real pretty red coat. I like people and I am very submissive to humans. I was told I was healthy as a horse and ready for my new home. Oh, and I think cats are squirrels and I want to eat them so if you have a cat, I might not be the right fit.

NOTE: Adopt A Golden Knoxville rescue doesn't have an actual shelter building in your area. These dogs are fostered in private homes in East Tennessee. Therefore, it is not possible to meet the dogs and pups prior to their adoption. They are brought up north on a USDA transporter.
