Goodbye Cancer!

A diagnosis of cancer is never good, but for Shelby, at least it won't mean a death sentence. What it did mean, is that she had to lose her right front leg. That's what this girl traded for a chance at a happy life. Shelby has a sunny-side up attitude and she is now in her forever home.

Obesity: A Serious Medical Problem

Sadly, this problem is all too common. We rescue many dogs each year that weigh over 100 pounds. If you cannot feel his ribs, or see a nice "waistline", your dog probably weighs too much. Extra weight sets dogs up for a whole list of medical problems. Give your dog love and attention, not extra food, and he'll be much happier and healthier.

Want a Good Dog? Train Him!

GRRMF often suggests that an owner take their new golden to obedience classes. We usually require training for young, energetic dogs. Obedience training helps an owner teach the dog to become a good canine citizen--one that people will enjoy being around. Another benefit of training is the close relationship that develops between the owner and the dog. It's also a great way to socialize the dog with other animals and people. Plus, it's fun!

An Update From Molly
Chance- Duncan

 

Molly was 7 years old when her owners had to move and decided they could not take her. GRRMF stepped in to care for Molly and find her a great new home. Many applicants want the younger dogs, because they think they might have more time with them. That's not always true, and the older dogs who are full of live and love, wait a little longer for a home.

Luckily for Molly, the A. family were able to get past their intention of adopting a younger dog. Molly's new mom recently wrote to update us on Molly's new life:

 

"Our intention had been to give a younger dog a home but Molly stole our hearts. It took her a few weeks to adjust to her new home but she is a light in our lives and her 'golden' personality radiates love every day.

I know that a lot of people do not consider the older dogs. Doug fell in love with Molly right away, I was a bit concerned about her age but as he pointed out to me, 'adopting a young dog doesn't guarantee we will have her/him for a long time and adopting an older dog doesn't mean we will only have him/her for a short time. We just have to treasure each day they grace our lives'. What a wise man I married! 

Molly is doing great. Thanks for caring for her when she had no where to turn and bringing her into our lives. "

Please consider adopting one of our older dogs; you'll appreciate their well-mannered ways and abundance of love to share.
