Grand Strand Golden Retriever Rescue (GSGRR) is an all volunteer group based in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina. We are dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and placement of homeless Golden Retrievers into the best homes possible to ensure their lifelong love and care. We belong to the National Rescue Committee of The Golden Retriever Club of America, and are an IRS approved 501(c)(3) non-profit Corporation. We are funded only by your donations, and they are tax-deductible. We also meet the requirements for corporate matching, employee giving and volunteer grant programs. Our volunteers are constantly on the lookout for available purebred Goldens and Golden mixes. Many of our dogs are "pulled" from high kill shelters in North and South Carolina, where they have been abandoned or brought in by animal control. Many of these dogs have been abused, and almost all have been neglected their entire lives. Others have been surrendered by their owners. Our Goldens range in age from puppies to seniors, and we feel that each deserves a stable "forever" home where it can reach its full potential. Although we rescue Goldens and their mixed friends specifically, we do occasionally help Labs and others we call "Goldenhearts" who are in urgent need of care. We operate through a network of passionate foster homes. Our volunteers are committed to our Goldens and to the humane treatment of all animals. We work to promote responsible pet ownership within the community through the advocacy of spay/neuter education. Together, we have many years of canine rescue experience, and the majority of these years have been a love affair with this wonderfully goofy breed called Golden Retrievers!
Effective January 1, 2021, there is a $25 fee to process your application. This fee is non-refundable and will go directly to the care of our Orphans. There are no exceptions. The fee is tax deductible. Anyone wishing to adopt one of our Goldens must complete an adoption application. As part of the application process, we will conduct a phone interview, check personal references and call your current and/or previous vets to verify that all previous or current pets are up to date on vaccines, altered, and on monthly heartworm prevention. We will also conduct a home visit before a final approval is given. Once your home visit is complete and your application approved, we will invite you to meet a few Goldens that we believe will be a match for your family situation. It might take some time for us to call you because we do our best to make sure the dog is the right fit for your family and vice versa. We reserve the right to deny any application.
