Non-Sun & Sand Goldens Puppy Availability
Occasionally, fellow breeders may face challenges in finding the right homes for their puppies. In such cases, I step in to adopt these puppies, ensuring they receive proper care, updated vaccines, and are prepared for their new families. My goal is to give these puppies the best possible start in life and match them with loving, responsible homes.
Older Dog Availability
Sometimes, we make the heartfelt decision to place a young or middle-aged dog into a carefully selected pet home. While it’s never easy to say goodbye, we know this transition can be the beginning of a beautiful new chapter both for the dog and their new family.
Why Are Older Dogs Available?
In any responsible breeding program, there are times when a dog’s path leads them away from breeding. This may be due to changes in their suitability for the program or simply because it’s in their best interest. These dogs are lovingly rehomed with families who can offer them undivided attention and a life filled with love.
Benefits of Adopting an Older Dog:
Well-Socialized: Older dogs are often familiar with people and environments, making their transition smoother.
House-Trained: Skip the early stages of training these dogs typically come with good manners!
Bonding Potential: Golden Retrievers, regardless of age, have an incredible ability to bond with anyone who shows them love, affection, and, of course, tasty treats.
While it’s bittersweet to see them go, we’re comforted knowing they’ll become the center of attention in a family who adores them.
Rescue Dogs
Since 2009, I have been dedicated to rescue work, giving dogs in need a second chance at life. Many of these dogs come from difficult situations, and I work to rehabilitate them, helping them adjust to a normal, loving environment. Once they’re ready, I match them with families who can provide the care and compassion they deserve. Rescue work has always been a deeply personal mission, and it’s incredibly rewarding to see these dogs thrive in their forever homes.
The Matching Process
Finding the perfect home for an older dog or rescue requires time, care, and mutual understanding.
Meet & Greet:
Prospective families must visit in person to spend time with the dog in various settings.
This ensures that everyone feels it’s truly a "match made in heaven."
Full Transparency:
We’ll share the reasons for rehoming the dog openly and honestly.
A written guarantee will accompany the adoption for your peace of mind.
Adjustment Period:
We recommend dedicating a week or two to help your new companion settle in.
If it turns out the match isn’t the right fit, we’ll take the dog back immediately and refund any fees paid.
