Golden Retriever Rescue Charity Profile
Rescue can take many forms, from a single individual trying to make a difference by saving one dog to a group of people working together for the common goal of saving many animals. GRRMF concentrates on Golden Retrievers because we are passionately devoted to this breed. All across America, local Golden Retriever clubs are working to save Goldens that show up wandering the streets or in shelters.
GRRMF is comprised solely of volunteers and is self-supporting, relying on fund raising and donations to support all rescue efforts including veterinary care. 100% of all donations are used for the rescue effort. GRRMF, Inc. is recognized by the National Rescue Committee, a committee of The Golden Retriever Club of America .
Golden retrievers that come into the care of GRRMF may be turned over by animal shelters, picked up as strays, or in most cases, turned in by their owners. Dogs also become homeless due to death or illness of their owners, divorce, children's allergies, relocation, or because of natural disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, etc.
Each Golden is evaluated for good health and temperament; examined by a veterinarian, brought up to date on all vaccinations, microchipped for identification purposes and placed on heartworm and flea preventive. All Goldens are spayed or neutered before adoption. Occasionally, Goldens with incurable health problems or unreliable temperaments may be euthanized, but only as a last resort. Dogs are housed in private foster homes located throughout Florida while they await adoption.
