Nash

My story

I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other dogs in need. Thank you! Nash is a young golden boy who is seeking a family for love, attention, and his forever home. He is a sweet boy who is simply looking for a quiet home with an adopter who is home more often than not and who will give him all the love and attention he needs to blossom into a devoted family member. Nash understands basic commands such as "sit" and "come," but needs to be taught other essential skills, including leash walking and learning that it is okay to be loved and cuddled. It is unknown if he was in a home situation or left outside on his own, but whatever the situation was, it was not a good one. He tends to be on the nervous side until he gets to know you; therefore, we would be looking to place Nash with an adopter who has patience and is willing to put in the time with this wonderful dog. Nash will seek reassurance that he is where he needs to be and that his devotion will be reciprocated. Understandably, Nash is shy and a bit anxious, not knowing where he is or what has happened to him. He is very gentle when offered a treat and seems to be looking for approval that it is OK to have that treat! He loves being petted and the attention of his humans. Nash’s early history is unknown, and we do not know how he was raised in the very short time he was with his original family. His world was turned upside down when he was turned into the local vet, but he has such promise, and we are sure he will blossom into a wonderful, happy dog. If you would like to be part of Nash's rescue story and are already approved to adopt through SGRR, please contact Cheryl Kewley to be considered to adopt Nash. This 11-month-old boy has been neutered, vaccinated, and is heartworm negative. 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 not yet approved for adoption, please visit our website to learn more and to submit an online application. Click here to visit our website. 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.

Under the terms of the contract, all adopters are required to bring the rescue to a vet within 7 business days. The dogs receive basic veterinary care prior to adoption. If your vet identifies an illness that an adopter is not willing to treat, then the dog is returned and a full refund is provided. 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. Please be a ray of light for this Sunshine dog and make a tax deductible donation toward medical and other expenses. Every cent of your generosity goes directly toward the care of a Sunshine dog.
