Adoption process

Online Application Form: Our online adoption application form consists of basic questions in regards to your contact information, history with dogs, lifestyle, and type of golden you are interested in. This is the first required step to start the process. Interview and Home Visit. Any references you list (i.e. vet) will be checked an then one of our volunteers will call you to arrange an interview and home visit. We will be looking for information on where the dog will spending it’s day and evening along with it there is adequate space. Our volunteer will discuss and be sure you (and your family) understand the needs of a Golden. All available dogs are considered “inside dogs”. Goldens make terrible outside dogs! We’ll work with you to find the best adoption match. We do adopt to homes/families outside of the Florida panhandle. We may rely on the services of a “sister” rescue to conduct a home check. Please note that it would be the adopter’s responsibility to travel to the Florida panhandle area to meet the potential adoptee as well as transport back to your home. Our focus and concerns center on the dogs in our care and we reserve the right to deny any application and may not disclose the reason for denial. We do not operate on a first-come first-served basis, as it is our goal to find the absolute best fit for both our dog and the adoptive family.
