Golden Retriever puppies and dogs in Norwalk, Connecticut

Foster Home Update: Marvin is doing well in his foster home! He loves his toys and to be with his foster mom while she works from home. He enjoys his walks and loves playing fetch and romping in the backyard, as you can see in his video. Marvin is a stunning, red-coated, 7-year-old Golden/Lab mix with the most expressive face! You can almost see what he is thinking when he looks at you. Found in an apartment all alone after his humans moved away, he was relieved to be found and has settled in happily as he awaits his forever home and his best years. Marvin is a really nice dog through and through. While at the vet clinic in AL, he got along fine with other dogs and even cats. However, since Marvin doesn't like to share his toys with other dogs, we will seek a home where he will be someone's "one and only." He has a soft mouth and we have learned that he loves soft toys. His foster family in the northeast shares, "Marvin loves to play and will use any toy or ball to get your attention when he wants to play. He loves tennis balls; he retrieves the ball and then releases it. He also enjoys chewing on toys and balls - he's quite a fun dog." Marvin appreciates attention and he will be a terrific companion in a loving home. Friendly and outgoing, Marvin's tail is almost always wagging. He enjoys the companionship of the foster family's teenagers. He walks okay on a leash and with some fine-tuning, he will have this skill mastered quickly. Marvin has a moderate energy level, typical of a 7-year-old dog, so regular nice walks and playtime are on his wish list. When it's time for nighty-night, Marvin sleeps in his bed all night long without a peep. Good boy, Marvin! Very good boy! Weighing about 80-85 lbs, Marvin is vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. He was treated for heartworms and is now cleared for regular activities. He has also received a Proheart 6 injection which means he will not need heartworm preventative for six months. He is in a foster home in the northeast and is ready to meet his forever humans! 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. If you are interested in becoming the happy ending to Marvin's rescue story, please contact Mary to be considered.

Please contact us with any questions regarding your application status. PLEASE APPLY by submitting an application via this online link: Click for Adoption Application 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.

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.

Beautiful Ginger found herself in an overcrowded shelter in MS and was adopted by a local rescuer who planned to keep Ginger for herself. Sadly, just two weeks after bringing Ginger home, the rescuer found out she had terminal cancer and asked if SGRR would find this beautiful girl her forever home. We were happy to help and it was just in time as this gentle woman passed away quite suddenly. At about 9-10 years of age, Ginger is a dream girl and her southern foster family had only wonderful things to say about her. She has perfect house manners, walks well on the leash, and rides nicely in the car. Ginger loves watching sports on TV with her foster family and her favorite thing to eat is scrambled eggs. One of our volunteers shared, "Ginger does this adorable thing where she kinda murmurs when being loved and leans in for more pets and praise. It’s like a purring cat in a larger GR female! :) Such a loving and sweet lady." Now in a foster home in the northeast, her foster mom tells us, "She is a happy girl and loves to please. She loves playing ball and really enjoys walking. She's very easy to be with and is very affectionate. She walks nicely on a leash and has good house manners. She enjoys all creature comforts. Ginger would love to be someone’s best friend!" Ginger met her foster mom’s friend's dog and walked next to her but did not seem to want to play with her. Ginger seems to seek people's companionship over dog companionship. Ginger is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, and micro-chipped. She finished heartworm treatment and has been given a Proheart-6 injection for 6 months of heartworm prevention. While Ginger has lived with other dogs in her southern foster home, she can be dog-selective so we will seek a home for her where she can be her human's one and only. She has no known history with kitties. 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.

Hi there! I’m Ollie, a 4-year-old Golden Retriever with a heart full of love and energy to spare. At 60 pounds, I’m the perfect size for all the adventures we’ll have together. I absolutely adore kids and am super gentle with them, making me a great fit for a family home. I’m a total “Velcro dog”—I love being close to my humans and soaking up all the love and attention I can get. I have a lot of energy and thrive on playtime and exercise. Fetch is one of my all-time favorite games, and I’m always up for splashing around in the water or going on long walks. While I get along with other dogs and even cats (though I can get a little excited around them), I do best with a strong handler who can guide me. I’m highly motivated by play and treats, so I learn quickly and already know basic commands. I’m also crate-trained, making me a well-behaved buddy when it’s time to settle down. I’d love a family who will keep me active and include me in their adventures, whether it’s hiking, exploring, or just playing in the backyard. Cooler weather is my favorite—I could happily stay outside all day, but I’ll need you to keep an eye on me in the heat. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, and playful companion, I might just be your perfect match. Let’s make some amazing memories together! Thank you so much for your interest in adopting a dog from A New Chance Animal Rescue (https://anewchancear.org). We are a 501c3, tax deductible organization. ANCAR is a foster-based rescue, and we adopt within a 90 mile radius of Bedford Hills, NY. You will find the adoption application here: (https://anewchancear.org/adopt/adoption-application/). All fields on the application must be completed. Please read about the adoption process (https://www.anewchancear.org/adopt/our-adoption-process/) so you'll know what to expect when you submit. Our dogs are in foster care and we do NOT have a shelter or boarding facility. AN APPLICATION MUST BE COMPLETED IN FULL AND APPROVED BEFORE A DOG CAN BE MET. This is a firm policy. Our busy volunteers are not able to respond to questions about the dog or dog meeting requests in the absence of an application. We know these dogs very well because they are in foster care. Please read the profiles of the dog(s) you are interested in prior to submitting an application. If there are specific requirements stated (ie: Fenced Yard or Canine Friend Required) these are included because they are vital to the happiness, health, safety and adoption success of that dog. We are only able to save as many dogs as we have foster homes (https://www.anewchancear.org/foster/faqs/) and resources for. We provide medical care including vaccinations, testing, deworming, spaying/neutering and microchipping before transporting our dogs. We provide all supplies, preventatives and any follow up vet care necessary while they are in foster care. These costs are high and the number of lives we can save is entirely dependent upon donations from people like you. We do not receive funding from private foundations or government sources. If you can find room in your heart to help us, with any amount, we are truly grateful (https://www.anewchancear.org/help/donate/). We are a 501c3 organization, so all donations are tax-deductible. It is only through the kindness of supporters like you that we are 'changing lives...one tail at a time' by providing our dogs with 'A New Chance.' (https://anewchancear.org) Thanks so much.

Hudson is a beautiful eight-year-old Golden Retriever mix, weighing about 55 lbs. She came from a loving family who had to move abroad and couldn’t take her along. She has settled beautifully into her foster home, quickly forming strong bonds with the 3 adults in the home. She has a quirky side — she “smiles” when you pet her head, spins when she’s unsure, and adorably reaches up to give you a hug to let you know she has to go out. Hudson loves being with her people, and is fully housebroken too. Hudson likes other dogs, is friendly when meeting other dogs, but loves her family's attention, and is happy as the only dog in her home. She walks nicely on leash and loves going on hikes & walks ... and enjoys her backyard romps too. If you're looking for a beautiful, loyal, and smart companion to share your life with, Hudson just might be the one! Be sure to complete an application on line and come to our Meet & Greet Saturday 11:30-1:30. If you are interested in this dog, please submit an application directly to our website at www.ny-petrescue.org. Only applications submitted directly to Petrescue will be considered.

*Name: Mae (Trinity) *Age: 6.5 years *Current Weight: 120 lbs *Rescued from: Texas (currently located with foster in Texas, transport will be scheduled once adopted.) *Adoption fee: $375  *Health: Up to date on vaccines, spayed & microchipped *Adoption requirements: adopter must be 25 or older Meet Mae!! Mae is a sweet 65lbs lady waiting for you to win her heart. Mae is believed to be a golden retriever/lab mix, and is 6.5 years old. She is a very affectionate, loving and loyal companion. Mae takes a minute to warm up to new people and things. After you earn her trust she will love with all of her heart. She will smother you with affection and gladly accept yours. Mae loves to run around outside and doesn't love being leashed, so a fully fenced yard is required. She loves to spend time outdoors sitting in chairs soaking up the sun. She is also just as content laying on the couch enjoying a great cuddle session. She has very nice house manners and stays on all fours. Mae does well around other calmer dogs, but she would also do well as your only furry companion. She is looking for her perfect furever home, could that be you?? To apply to adopt, fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/ FAQs -- PLEASE READ ALL BEFORE EMAILING All adoption fees are non-refundable If paying by credit card, Venmo, or PayPal there is a set processing fee, generally this fee is under $15 per pet. These processing fees are determined by the form of payment adopters decide to use. By helping with this minimal cost this allows us to save more animals. Please note that SNARR NE is a volunteer-based organization. While our volunteers will try to respond to you as quickly as possible, it is helpful if you review the below information about our adoption process before emailing: LISTED BREED(S) & AGE: We are taking our best guess on age, breed, and size when fully grown, based on the puppy's/dog's physical appearance and what we might have learned about one or both parents depending on the situation. *NOTE* We rarely know a dog's exact age, nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. Because we often do not have access to medical records at the time that we are listing for dogs for adoption, there are sometimes discrepancies between what is posted on their profile and what might be listed on a dog's medical records. SNARR'S ADOPTION PROCESS: The first step in adopting or meeting a SNARR dog/puppy is to fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/. Once we receive your application, one of our adoption application processors will contact you, review our adoption process with you, and answer any additional questions you may have. **We do not go on a first-come-first-serve basis for adoptions, but on best fit for a family and most importantly the puppy or dog. ** MEETING ADOPTABLE DOGS: Meet and greets will not be scheduled until after your adoption application has been fully processed and approved by one of our adoption processors. APPLYING ONLINE: If you fill out an online application, please do so from a computer (not a mobile device), make sure you answer ALL the questions in as much detail as possible, and that you receive a confirmation email. If you do not receive a confirmation email, that means we did NOT receive your application. ##1151751##
