ADOPTING A GOLDEN

05/30/20  Effective immediately we are not accepting new volunteer, foster or adoption applications or
goldens for surrender into our program.

We invite and are pleased to consider your application to adopt a Golden Retriever.

Very briefly, here's how the process works:

      Step 1:   You download and submit our adoption application.   ADOPTION APPLICATION
                          Note:   1. Applicants outside our service area will not be considered.   GRRCNY Service Area Map
                                       2. Homes without physical (not electronic) fenced enclosure sufficient for exercise, or with very
                                            young children, will receive low priority.  GRRCNY Position on Fencing
      Step 2:   We acknowledge and advise of your eligibility.  
      Step 3:    A visit to your home is scheduled to view premises and interview all household members.
      Step 4:   We evaluate prospective adopters for compatibility  with Goldens currently available.  

                        Our key focus is finding the most suitable home for the dog. 
                     Placements are not on a first-come-first-serve basis.
