Clem Golden Retriever Mix New Canaan, CT

I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other dogs in need. Thank you!

Clem had lived with his family since he was a puppy and has been with them for the past 3 years. He has been well-loved and care for and has had wonderful veterinary care. He came to our rescue already neutered, vaccinated, and has been on heartworm preventive. Unfortunately, changes in his family's life have forced them to move to housing that does not allow dogs, and amidst many tears, the family has asked our rescue to help find Clem his new forever home.

Unlike many dogs from Louisiana, Clem has always been kept as an inside dog. He is house-broken and trustworthy when left alone. He attended doggy daycare and enjoyed playing with other dogs. The vet's office, where Clem received his vet care and was boarded, told us what a GREAT dog he is! He is also good with the family's young grandchildren and would make a wonderful family companion. Everyone who meets this Golden mix remarks that he is the sweetest dog you could imagine. He has a lovely disposition, moderate energy level, and is friendly to everyone he meets!

Clem has a stunning reddish coat with contrasting white markings. His eyes peer deeply into your heart and hold such a level of intelligence. If you are seeking a wonderful companion to share your days with, Clem is raising his paw to join you. He truly just wants to be loved and to belong to someone's heart again.

Clem weighs about 63 lbs and is about 3.5 years old old. He is up-to-date on vaccinations, neutered, micro-chipped, and is heartworm negative. He will be able to come north on transport for direct adoption in late April.

Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical. When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to continue the rehabilitation we have begun.

ABOUT OUR RESCUE
Before being approved to adopt, all potential adopters will be required 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 indicate that this dog is not the right match for your family. We are frequently getting new Goldens in need of a home, so we encourage you to apply and complete the application process so that when the right dog comes along you will be ready.

The information provided on each dog is based on the 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 behave and adapt in your home.

A contract is signed on the day of adoption. Under the terms of the contract, all adopters are required to bring their SGRR dog to a vet within 7 business days. All dogs receive basic veterinary care prior to adoption. However, if an adopter's vet identifies an illness that an adopter is not willing to treat, then the dog may be returned and a full refund would be provided.

Most of our dogs are fostered in private homes. We do not have a facility to visit. We are committed to our dogs before, during, and after adoption! To this end, the rescue retains an interest in each dog and our dogs can never be surrendered, re-homed, or sold. Should an adopter no longer be able to keep their SGRR 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 providing proper care. Adopters 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 care and other expenses. Every cent of your generosity goes directly toward the care of a Sunshine dog.
