Elsa is not a "Princess" even though she looks like one. She is more of a "Tomboy" when it comes to playing. She dishes out more than the boys can take. Full of life and exuberance, this 1-year-old is quite a busy girl. Loves to fetch and tug.

Elsa is housetrained and crate trained. She is still a pup and would benefit from some basic training. She will need to learn rules and boundaries. 

Quick to learn and understands some basic commands, but strong on leash and easily distracted. Gets along with most of the dogs here but does sometimes display dominant characteristics.

This big boy is 6 years old, weighs 85 pounds, and is very handsome!  He came from an owner whose job title changed, and now she has to travel quite a bit.  Rigby was well taken care of and loved, and this decision was not easy. He has a strong temperament but will warm your heart when you get to know him. A dog-savvy owner would be best for this boy, as he can have a strong personality.  Understands  basic commands and has done very well with structure and routine here at the rescue. He is strong on lead, and we will work with him on that once it gets a bit cooler.

Nala: Queen, Lion...  This big, confident 6-year-old girl (she said she's big boned) is a beauty! Confident, large, and in charge - she weighed in at 85lbs- she has a great personality. She has also had some good training, walks well on leash, is very smart, and will perform with the right handler. Nala is housetrained and loves people.

 She is good with older kids and adults, but toddlers or younger children not so much, so Nala needs a home with no kids under 8 years old. Plays fetch fairly well, but enjoys being the "queen" and hanging with her people.

Trip is a sweet 3-year-old girl - sibling to Blue. Brought up in the same environment as Blue, Trip doesn’t know much. She does know she wants to be in your lap.....if you sit down,  she is there! She is a happy girl, who enjoys playing ball. She is a bit insecure and will sometimes grab on to your arm, like a puppy.

Trip is quiet, good with other dogs. She is small as well....we call them "pocket Goldens"....just the right cuddle size!

Ricky is a very sweet 5 year old English Cream Golden. He was returned to CGRR due to him having separation anxiety. Ricky was adopted as a pup , and the folks who adopted him were active, going on lots of walks/hikes, going camping, and kept him busy. They had a couple of kids and their routine changed, as it does with young ones. We are not sure what exactly changed, but we feel that Ricky may not have been getting exercised enough, and kind of took a back seat. He did live with 2 other dogs, but that did not help his anxieties. He would get destructive when left alone. He needs to gain some self confidence.

It has been a bit of a stressful month at CGRR. Our special needs boy Shiloh had a seizure last month and another seizure the first week of August. This seizure lasted just over three minutes and was quite violent. We took Shiloh to the ER and while the doctor was examining him, he had another seizure, so they kept him overnight. They started him on a pretty hefty dose of Keppra and phenobarbital.  After meeting with the neurologist, the next week, it was decided to do another MRI on to see if there were any significant changes in his brain. They also did a CSF tap.
