#4078 Sol

Sol has become a bona fide member of our family and while stray hair and dirt in every crevice of the house can drive one insane, we wouldn’t change a thing. She is our first family dog and we always hoped to be able to have her off leash though until very recently we didn’t think this would be possible....

#2425 Dante

It’s hard to put into words; however, Dante has been an amazing, lovely, easy boy since the day we adopted him over 8 years ago. He is loved so very much by our family. He has never chewed or stolen anything in the house. He can be left alone and patiently waits for us to return. He loves being outside...

#3213 Ringo

We picked up Ringo at Toronto Pearson Airport on October 26, 2019 when he wasn’t even quite a year old. He’s almost 7 now. We fell in love instantly. He was a shy, scared little boy; however, by the time we arrived home, he was comfortable enough to eat dinner and jump up on the couch and lay on our...

#4373 Leyla

After being adopted and returned and having moved through several foster families, I expected that Leyla would have some difficulty settling in. That was not the case. From day one, she seemed to know that she was home. And she felt like home to me as well…she truly belonged here. I live and run our business from my farm, so...

#4187 Rory

Rory has settled so well into life with us and Zola, our Bernadoodle, and life in Canada. We were a little nervous as first time ‘rescue pawrents’; however, we have had such an amazing experience with him. He really just wanted to be loved and to have a family to call his own. The changes we have seen in him...

#3455 Bentley

Bentley is doing wonderfully well. It’s hard to believe it’s been more than four years since he joined our family. We are now both retired so he’s loving having us home all the time, but we’ve also become empty nesters with both our girls away at university and I think he misses them. This is a funny side story, but...

#4367 Nora

Woof…woof. Oh boy, I was so excited when I heard there was an email from Golden Rescue just for me. My tail hasn’t stopped wagging since. Life here is great. My humans are always around, which means plenty of belly rubs, ear scratches, and snacks (though I could always use more). The little ones sometimes put funny things on me,...

#3075 Rusty

Rusty is great. After two successful hip surgeries the first year we had him, he was better than ever and you would never know that there had been anything wrong with his hips ~ especially when he ‘supermans’ off the deck to chase rabbits and squirrels. He is sweet and gentle and everybody absolutely loves him. He loves to play...

#4155 Calvin

About Calvin…has very furry paws and a goofy, playful heart. Calvin shares his life with us and his Golden siblings ~ 7-year-old Deacon and 4-year-old Clementine who is also a rescue. Calvin has food guarding issues with other dogs but never with humans. We mitigate this by keeping them separated for food and treats. We believe that love and understanding...
