ADOPTING A GOLDEN
03/31/20: GRRCNY COVID-19 Response: Effective immediately we are not accepting new foster or adoption applications until at least April 30. This will be re-visited towards the end of April to determine if it is safe for our volunteers to resume home visits.
It is important to note the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) has stated
there is NO evidence at this time that pets can spread COVID-19

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.

About Our Goldens
Note from the Board of Directors: We are accepting Adoption Applications for Golden Retrievers. Though the number of goldens coming into our program remains low, we will accept adoption applications. We still are looking for applicants that would provide a loving home for senior dogs or dogs with special needs/situation.
