Hi, I’m Available!
We
often get questions and comments regarding our fence policy. We require
a secure physical fence for the dogs we adopt. Many of our dogs are
Goldens that have been retired from breeding facilities. While these
dogs have been given basic care, they have not been treated as pets and
are not socialized. Their Instinct is to run and hide until they have
learned to trust and have bonded with their new family, and they have
not yet learned to relieve themselves while on leash. Others can be shy
due to their treatment before coming to rescue. Some of our dogs are
very active and love to run and play and chase balls, and they need a
safely fenced yard. We acknowledge that there are very good dog owners
that do not have fences, but we cannot pick and choose. We must have a
standard policy for the safety of the dogs. We do not like to
disappoint or upset people, but bottom line our dogs come first and we
will always err on the side of caution. That being said, there are
countless wonderful dogs that need homes, and there are many rescues
that do not have the same fence requirements. |
Love A
Golden is a rescue organization based in St. Louis, Missouri. We strive
to find the best available home for each individual Golden in our
program ~ our goal is finding the Golden’s “forever home.”
If you
are interested in adopting one of our Goldens, we ask that you read
more about our adoption procedures by clicking HERE and fill out an
adoption application.
We try to keep our listing up-to-date, but
some recently available dogs
may not be listed yet and some listed dogs may already be
adopted.

Shadow
male
Labradoddle
|
Shadow
is a 6-year-old neutered Labradoodle. He’s very well behaved, he
can sit, down, stay, comes when calls and will proudly give you his
paw. He’s housebroken and will alert you when he needs to go
potty/outside, crate trained and rides well in the car. Shadow
comes from a home where he was the only dog but is getting along well
with his 2-foster brother/sister and has had no trouble blending
in. He can entertain himself with a tennis ball and enjoys a good
game of fetch and looking out the windows to see what’s going on. He’s
been to work with his foster mom and hung out in her office and was a
perfect co-worker. He
does get on the couch but will sit at one end and will move if you tell
him "off", he sleeps on a dog bed but waits for the invitation to get in
the bed and settles at his end and doesn’t move all night. His
foster mom has left him loose in the house for up to 5 hours with no
issues. He’s very sweet and likes to give “kisses” and has a funny
personality when he plays and stretches his long legs. He does need some improvement on walking on a leash but his foster mom’s working on that.

Buddy
male
|
This handsome boy is Buddy!
He’s
a little shy and nervous when he meets new people but quickly adjusts.
He’s housebroken, rides well in the car, comes when called, stays off
the furniture and doesn’t jump on people. He’s been on walks with his foster siblings and walks well on a leash.
He is
currently living with 2 other LAGR dogs and gets along well and goes to
work with his foster mom and loves to be petted. He also loves natural
bones, squeaky toys and chasing squirrels and birds.
He
will need some refreshing training; he’s well behaved but it takes
several commands to “sit” and “down” but he’s working on it. He’s
approximately 7 years old and neutered, he’s learning about being
crated but will happily stay in an area with a doggie gate.

Claire
female
special
needs
|
Claire
is a special needs girl who was born with abnormal size
kidneys. Her
DOB is December 12, 2020. She came from a
breeder. You would never
know she has this condition; she loves walks and life. She loves to be
outside searching for critters. Due to her condition, as
long as the
correct diet is maintained and she has regular blood checkups, to be
sure of the levels she is currently at are maintained, she could have a
normal life. But as with all dogs there is no guarantee
She will destroy a soft toy in no time, so instead she
loves Nyla bones and antlers.
Like
many dogs she refused to eat the dry kidney food, so her foster home
cooks for her and has been able to add dry with it along with Purina NF
wet kidney food. It is simple and inexpensive to cook just time
consuming. Her treats are limited to just at bedtime. She
currently goes to acupuncture once a month, which was recommended for
dogs with kidney issues.
Claire is a very sweet girl, who gets along with her
doggie friends.

Cassidy

English
Cream Golden
SPECIAL
NEEDS
|
Cassidy
is an English Cream Golden Retriever with puppy spunk; DOB
1/14/2022. Love a Golden Rescue has been taking care of her
since she was a little puppy due to medical concerns. Cassity was
born with “bladder issues”. Her
bladder is more forward than her doggy friends and she did not have the
ability to use her sphincter muscle to control her
urine. After three surgeries, she was controlling her urine
and her body had learned to hold in until she goes
outside. Her life of diapers had ended and we were so
excited to have her listed as “special needs” available for
adoption.
Unfortunately the last few months she had a set back and is back in
panties some of the time. Cassidy is a fun loving girl who loves all
and has no idea she is different. In her new home have to be on the
lookout for UTI. Her specialist is in Bridgeton, Mo and as they
are aware of her previous medical we believe any follow up for this
condition should be done there.
