OUR MISSION IS TO RESCUE, FOSTER, REHABILITATE AND ADOPT ABUSED, NEGLECTED, AND UNWANTED GOLDEN RETRIEVERS AND MIXES TO PERMANENT HOMES. ALL OF GRFR'S RESCUED DOGS SPEND TIME IN FOSTER HOMES, WHICH ENABLES GRFR VOLUNTEERS TO BETTER ASSESS THE TEMPERAMENT OF EACH DOG FOR SUCCESSFUL MATCHING TO THE APPROPRIATE PERMANENT HOME. GRFR STRIVES TO PLACE THEIR DOGS IN THE APPROPRIATE HOME ENVIRONMENT AND SEVERAL INTERVIEWS ARE HELD BETWEEN THE PROSPECTIVE OWNERS AND GRFR STAFF, WHICH INCLUDES A HOME VISIT PRIOR TO PLACEMENT. AS PART OF OUR RESCUE MISSION, GRFR PROVIDES THE FOLLOWING SERVICES TO EACH RESCUED DOG PRIOR TO ADOPTION INTO A PERMANENT HOME: SPAY OR NEUTER, VACCINATIONS, TREATMENT FOR EXISTING ILLNESS, DISEASE, OR INJURIES, AND EMERGENCY VETERINARY CARE.
