All of our dogs have been Veterinarian checked, are current on vaccinations, spayed/neutered, heartworm tested and micro-chipped before being placed in a new home.  We will now take care of sending in the microchip registration for each dog we adopt out. Because of this, as well as an increase in Vet bills, gas prices and mailing cost for our newsletter, we have increased our adoption fees. The adoption fee for puppies under a year old is $225,  dogs 1-4 years $200,  5-8 years $175 and the fee for seniors or mixes varies-depending on how much we have invested in the dog medically. It usually ranges from $95-140.  The adoption fee for Golden mix puppies will be $150.  The fee is less for a "Special Needs" dog. The adoption fee is considered a donation, which can be claimed on your taxes.

To adopt a dog, each applicant must complete an Adoption Application, which can be downloaded from our website. Once completed, you can email the application back, or drop in the mail to the Post Office Box listed. When the application is received, it will be reviewed and processed. You will then be contacted to schedule an appointment to meet with the dog(s).  If a dog is not available at that time, we will add you to our waiting list and call you when one comes in.

At the time of adoption, you will be asked to read and sign an Adoption Agreement for the dog you are adopting.

We invite you to visit our Available Dogs page often to see the new dogs. If we can answer any more questions, please feel free to email us!  Be patient with us, as we all work full time and volunteer to help these wonderful Goldens in our spare time. We will contact you as soon as possible.

If you are unable to adopt a Golden at this time, perhaps you would like to sponsor a particular Golden. Contact us for more information.  Click here.
