GRIN tries to make every effort to keep this page current and up to date. Please keep in mind that by the time you submit an application and are going through the approval process, some of dogs pictured below may already be in the process of meeting and being adopted by other approved applicants.

The average ages of our rescued Goldens are 6-10 years of age, however GRIN does occasionally receive younger dogs that are in need of a home.  If you are interested in adopting a young dog, please do not wait until you see one on our website to apply for adoption.  Our approval process takes approximately 2-4 weeks to complete and by the time you have been approved for adoption, the younger dog will have already been placed into a loving home. Please start the application process now so that you can be on a waiting list for when GRIN does have younger dogs available.

Meet Dutton, a young ball of energy, always ready for the next adventure. His spirit is infectious, radiating happiness and social warmth that can brighten even the gloomiest days. Dutton came to us as his owner passed away and we'd like to find him another dedicated person to call his own. His boundless energy and social nature make him an ideal friend for those who love to stay active --meaning regular walks will be necessary to burn that energy! He needs training and guidance but he's happy to oblige! Adopt Dutton, and let his joyful spirit fill your home with happiness and love.

Foster Update: 9/30/24

Hi Dutton here!  I am doing great in my foster home.  I have learned to follow the pack to join in the daily activities.  I have a new best buddy, named Finch.  We love to wrestle!  Watch out WWF!  I love going for pack walks and playing fetch, but my favorite thing of all is WATER!   I would be in our pool all day and nighttime too, if foster mom didn't close the gate!  If I can't get in the pool, a mud puddle will do!  I even like the hose when I get a bath.  I am completely house trained and foster mom says my house manners are impeccable.  In other words, I am the whole package, wrapped in a wiggly golden suit.  Am I a good fit for your home?

Foster Update: 9/9/24

Hi!  My name is Dutton.  I am a lively, happy boy.  My tail is always wagging, and I am always smiling.  I like to jump up and say HOWDY to everyone I meet, so foster mom says I need to go to obedience school.  That is fine with me as it is a chance for me to make new friends. I love my foster siblings and the rest of my foster family.  I sleep in my crate 8-9 hours a night and take my medicine like a good boy.   I am great in the car and love exploring my big new world.  Some noises startle me, but I recover quickly.  Now understand, I am not bragging, but my foster mom says I am gorgeous, beautiful, and handsome.  Is there an active forever family looking for a lively, handsome guy?  Then I'm your man!
