Miles
My puppy pic!
Miles, a handsome 4-year-old Golden boy, was surrendered when his owners wer no longer able to care for him. He is a sweet and active boy who is up to date on vaccines, neutered, and heartworm negative.
Miles weighs in at 110 lbs. and we will be working to get him down to a healthy 85 lbs. Thankfully he is enjoying his green beans and weight management food. He will be seeing a specialist to address a bad left rear knee although he is currently not showing any signs of being in pain.
It appears that Miles has led a sheltered life as everything is new to him and he is embracing it like a puppy in a new world!
Miles is being fostered in Myrtle Beach.

Griffin
Griffin’s past is not a great one, though you would never know it with his amazing disposition. He is an adorable Golden mix estimated to be 4-6 years old that is up-to-date on his vaccines, neutered, and has completed his heartworm treatment. Although his teeth are quite worn, he will be having some dental work soon.
This fun, loving boy is always so happy with a wagging tail and big smile. Griffin loves walks, car rides, porch sitting, and a good couch snuggle. Great with cats and kids, he is good with female dogs and, with slow introductions, he does well with submissive male dogs.
Griffin has his bags packed and is ready for his forever home. Will it be yours?
Griffin is being fostered in Mt. Pleasant.

Jackson
Jackson is a handsome 4-year-old Golden whose owners made the difficult decision to surrender him to the rescue because they wanted the best for him. This Golden boy weighs 62 lbs, is up to date on vaccines, neutered, and heartworm negative. He has had seizures in his previous home but they are controlled and we have not seen any seizure activity since being in rescue.
Jackson is an energetic, well-socialized, happy go luck boy that is great with other dogs and children. He hasn’t been around indoor cats but tries to play with the outside cat.
Jackson is everything you would expect from a Golden – even tempered, goofy, happy, sweet, energetic, eager to please, and he never meets a stranger. He is well mannered and loves to tag along for a day at the beach, shopping, restaurants, car rides or any place you may go. He is very smart and loves to work on training. Jackson has his bags packed and waiting on his forever home. Will it be yours?
Jackson is being fostered in Columbia.

Princess
Princess Has Her Forever Home!
💖🐾
Princess is a cute 8 year old Golden mix girl, who weighs 54 lbs. and is blessed with the most adorable ears! She is up to date on vaccines, has been spayed, and heartworm negative.
Princess loves going for walks and playing games that involve treats. She would much rather be with her people than play with other dogs so being the only dog in a home would suit her just fine. Although she displays some separation anxiety, it can be managed.
Princess is really hoping that someone will open their heart and home to her. Will it be yours? 💖
Princess is being fostered in the Savannah area.
Finley
Finley, at just over 2 years old, was sadly surrendered by his owners to keep him safe after he learned how to circumvent their electronic gates. Finley is a sweet golden boy who had spent most of his life amusing himself in a large, fenced, country yard.
Since coming into GGR, Finley is quickly learning the fun of living in a house and playing with his foster brothers. He is learning his commands, walking on leash and is adjusting to city and neighborhood sounds. Finley will relax on the sofa, getting pets while you watch TV, which will fascinate him especially if there are sirens or barking dog.
Finley weighs 65 lbs., is neutered, up to date on shots and heartworm negative. He is crate trained and will quietly spend the night crated in your bedroom. He has his bags packed and waiting to hear from you!
Finley is currently being fostered in the Charleston area.
Silly boy!
Finley Has His Forever Home! 💙🐾
Tiger
Tiger and friends
Tiger is a handsome 5-year-old Golden who was a much-loved boy that was surrendered to the rescue. His owners have a busy life with young children and felt they just didn’t have the proper amount of time to devote to him. Wanting to do the best for him, they made the difficult decision to let him come into rescue where he would get the attention he deserves.
Tiger is a small and active Golden boy at only 43 lbs. who is up to date on vaccines, neutered, and heartworm negative.
Tiger is very sweet and is getting acclimated in his foster home and enjoying a lot of attention.
Tiger is being fostered in the Columbia area.

Casey
Casey is the definition of a sweet boy. About a year old, he weighs 40 lbs and is up to date on vaccines, neutered, and great in his crate. He is a shadow dog and loves his person. Everyone who meets him falls in love with not just his looks but calm, loving demeanor.
Casey is very submissive with other dogs and, while shy at first, he warms up quickly and loves to play. He is great at playing fetch, loves cuddles, any attention, and he will gladly provide you with lots of kisses.
While he is still unsure about the world and car rides he just needs a person to give him some reassurance and then he is ok. His perfect situation would be an older person or couple with a fenced in backyard and ideally another dog as he loves the companionship of another canine which helps his confidence.
Casey has his bags packed and ready for his forever home and he hopes it will be yours!
Casey Has His Forever Home!💙🐾
Sofie
Sofie, a sweet 5-year-old Golden girl, was surrendered because her owner was not able to provide her with the care she needed. She is an absolute sweetheart and is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, and has just been spayed.
Sofie, who weighs 67 lbs., is slowly adjusting to a new environment different from the one she's known for her first five years. She is showing some separation anxiety but time and patience will help her through the transition. In the meantime, she is affectionate, playful and is quickly bonding to her people and becomes their shadow.
Sofie loves her tennis ball and will play throw and fetch like a champ returning the ball to you each time. She also loves chasing the squirrels in the yard. Not a fan of thunderstorms, Sofie responds to a calming agent and her people nearby to feel safe.
Sofie is being fostered in Myrtle Beach.
