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.

Lexi
female
Goldendoddle

My name is Lexi and I am a doodle, a Goldendoodle! I have soft, wavy hair that is cream-colored with reddish highlights.  I am three years old, a svelte 80 lbs. and stand 28” at the shoulder.   Besides being adorable, I am sweet and very affectionate and bond readily.  I settled in quickly and am enjoying my stay with my foster family (including Harvey, the resident Golden).
I know quite a few behavior cues and am learning more every day.   I know ’sit’, ‘down’, ‘touch’, ‘wait’, ‘free’, ‘leave it’, ‘drop it’, ‘take it’ and more.  I am a smart pup, don’t you think!  Oh, and I have a great recall but still need the added safety of a fenced yard.

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.

Cassidy
female

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.
