Almost Heaven Golden Retriever Rescue & Sanctuary, Inc.
Who We Are
Almost Heaven Golden Retriever Rescue and Sanctuary, Inc. is located in Capon Bridge, West Virginia. We have members, foster homes, and volunteers throughout West Virginia, Virginia, and Maryland. Although our "specialty" is Senior and Special Needs Goldens, we also accept many young, healthy Goldens into our program. No Golden is ever turned away - regardless of age or health. All our Goldens are 100% vetted, including spay/neuter, vaccinations, heartworm check and prevention, and fecal check and treatment (if necessary) prior to placement into their "forever" homes.
Adopting a friend
All dogs adopted from Almost Heaven are spayed or neutered. All dogs are current on vaccinations, have had fecal and heartworm tests and are on heartworm preventative. We request a minimum donation at the time of adoption to help offset our expenses, which currently average in excess of $300 for each dog we rescue. The minimum donation requested can be as low as $200-$300 (we may request more for young purebred Goldens and for those dogs graduating from our obedience program). As we frequently do not actually know a dogs ancestry or age, we make our best estimate of both, usually with the help of our veterinarian.
We do our absolute best to match our available dogs with approved applicants. As our residents do change due to adoption and intake, and all our Goldens are fully evaluated for temperment and energy level prior to placement, we ask that you let us help you choose just the right dog for you and your family.
