Sadie

I have an Adoption Pending but hope you will consider one of our other dogs in need. Thank you!<br/><br/>Thank you for your interest in Sadie! We are not accepting any additional applications at this time. <br/><br/><br/>Meet Sadie! Sadie is a beautiful, purebred Golden Retriever who is approximately 3 years old and weighs 55 pounds. This happy, loving girl has all the classic Golden qualities we adore—she's sweet, affectionate, playful, and always ready to be part of the fun!<br/><br/>Sadie came to her current family about a year and a half ago after her previous family was moving to Germany and couldn't take her along. Because her family works full-time and also has several senior dogs, Sadie has been spending approximately 12 hours a day in her crate while her family is at work. She is very comfortable in her crate and has been a good girl during that time, but her family recognizes that this isn't the life a young, energetic Golden should have. Sadie is ready for a home where she can spend much more time out of her crate—playing, exploring, getting exercise, and simply being part of the family. <br/><br/>Sadie is house-trained, crate-trained, and she rides beautifully in the car—she practically jumps right in! She knows several basic commands, including sit, down, and come, and she is a very good listener. She also enjoys relaxing in her persons recliner, although she happily gets down when asked. Sadie recently lived with a Labrador and two Shih Tzus and did well with all of them. She has also been around children and has been wonderful with them. Like many young Goldens, Sadie can get excited and enthusiastic during playtime, so she would love a family who appreciates a playful girl and can give her plenty of opportunities to burn off that Golden energy. Sadie loves to play ball and would enjoy regular walks, outdoor adventures, and plenty of interactive play. At her foster home, she has a fenced yard and is accustomed to having room to run and play. She has not had much leash-walking experience, so that is something her new family can work on with Sadie. The good news is that Sadie is smart, eager to please, and already knows some basic commands! When it comes to personality, Sadie is happy, energetic, loving, and sweet. She has no food-guarding issues and has never nipped or bitten anyone or displayed aggression. She doesn't particularly enjoy thunderstorms, but she has a great coping strategy—she simply heads to her crate where she feels safe and comfortable.<br/><br/>Sadie is ready for a fresh start with a family who has the time and energy to give her the life she deserves. She would love to be included in daily activities, go for walks, play ball, explore the great outdoors, and then settle in beside her people for some well-earned Golden cuddles, just like she is doing with her southern foster mom now. Her foster mom said Sadie even sleeps in the bed with the resident cat.<br/><br/>Sadie has so much love and life to give. She just needs someone who can give her more of the time, attention, exercise, and companionship she has been missing.<br/><br/>Sadie is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, micro-chipped, and heartworm negative. She will be coming north in mid-September to be directly adopted. <br/><br/>If you are already approved to adopt through SGRR, please contact Cheryl Kewley at: ckewley123@gmail.com to be considered. <br/> <br/>Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical. When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to become an important, forever part of their life journey by continuing the rehabilitation we have begun. <br/><br/>If not yet approved for adoption, please visit our website to learn more and to submit an online application: http://sunshinegoldenrescue.com/adoption-info1.html <br/><br/>Please direct any questions regarding your application status to: ckewley123@gmail.com <br/><br/>Thank you!<br/> <br/>ABOUT OUR RESCUE<br/>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. <br/><br/>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.<br/><br/><br/> ADOPTION FEES - Effective October 1, 2024<br/><br/>PUREBRED DOGS <br/>$1000 Purebred puppies, up to 6 months <br/> $800 Purebred dogs, 6 months - 6 years <br/> $650 Purebred dogs, 7 - 9 years <br/> $550 Purebred dogs, 10 years and up <br/><br/> $650 Young dogs with special needs <br/> $500 Senior dogs with special needs <br/><br/>$1600 Pairs of Purebred Puppies, up to 6 months<br/>$1400 Bonded pair - young purebred dogs <br/>$1000 Bonded pair - senior dogs 7 years & up <br/> <br/>MIXED BREED DOGS<br/> $850 Up to 6 months <br/> $750 6 months - 6 years <br/> $650 7 - 9 years <br/> $550 10 years and up <br/><br/> $650 Young dogs with special needs <br/> $500 Senior dogs with special needs <br/><br/>$1000 Bonded pair - young dogs <br/> $900 Bonded pair - senior dogs 7 years & up <br/><br/>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. <br/><br/>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. <br/><br/>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.<br/><br/>Please visit our website at: http://sunshinegoldenrescue.com to learn more about our rescue and to make a Donation to support Sunshine Golden Retriever Rescue. <br/><br/>THANK YOU!
