For out of area adopters, our general policy is we will make exceptions to the adoption area only when it is the very best for the dog.

Luba
Hi everybody! I'm Luba.
As you a see from my pictures, I am an adorable, young golden doodle. The rescue thinks I am about a year old. I am a happy, sweet, and playful little girl that loves toys...especially balls...they are my favorite! I really like other dogs too - they teach me a lot and I really like that. I've not met a cat yet, so I'm not sure what I'll think of those. Because I am pretty shy, particularly when I meet new people, having other dogs around gives me confidence. I have been spending time with my amazing trainer who is helping me overcome my lack of confidence, and teaching me all the things that a perfect family pet needs to know. She says that I am making great progress! Because of my shyness, the rescue thinks that I would thrive with a mentor dog. A fenced in yard is a must for me as well.
I am housebroken, up to date on my vaccines and oh so ready to find my forever family!

Tom
Tom is a 2-year-old Golden Retriever with a very active personality and a lot of love to give. He is the happiest when he's moving - whether that's long walks, runs, or playing outside - so he's looking for a home that can keep up with his energy.
Tom does well with other dogs and would be best suited for a home with older kids. He is housetrained and neutered, and overall a great dog who just needs the right outlet for his activity level.

Puppies
Adopt US!
A rescue… and then a surprise!
When Golden Rescue South Florida pulled a sweet Goldendoodle from the Miami-Dade shelter, we thought we were saving one life……but she had a surprise for us. We now have 5 absolutely adorable puppies ready to find their forever homes. We’re guessing a fun mix (maybe Goldendoodle + Lab?), but what we know is:
-they are playful
-they are cuddly
-they are full of love
They will be 8 weeks on March 28th
Adoption Day: 3/28
These little ones are the perfect reminder of why we do what we do… sometimes one rescue turns into MANY more chances at a beautiful life.

Rusty
Hi everyone! My name is Rusty!
I'm a 10 month old male Golden Retriever boy with a huge heart and even bigger energy. I LOVE people, kids, and other animals. If you're around, I want to be right there with you...playing, exploring, or just soaking up all the love.
But here's the big thing about me...I'm VERY active. Like, really REALLY active. I need daily exercise, mental stimulation, and lots of room to burn off my puppy energy.
Which means...A fenced yard is absolutely 100% required. NO exceptions. I also need an active owner who can keep up with me. NO exceptions.
I'm still young, so I need someone committed to guiding me, training me, and helping me grow into the amazing adult dog I'm meant to be.

ROGER
Hi… my name is Roger.
If you’re looking for a loyal Golden boy who will happily walk beside you, keep you company around the house, and remind you every day what unconditional love looks like… I might just be your guy. I’m an 8-year-old handsome Golden with a big heart. My family has had me since I was just a tiny fluff ball — I was their very first baby. We’ve shared many wonderful years together. I’m great with kids (I helped raise three of them!) and I truly love being part of the family. Walks are one of my favorite things, and I enjoy spending time with my people. I’m also a pretty smart guy — I know lots of commands (mostly in Spanish!) like sit, stay, lie down, play dead, and speak.
My foster says I’m very well-mannered too. I don’t beg, I don’t chew things I shouldn’t, and I’m clever enough to figure out how to open doors if I really want to see what’s going on. I enjoy being around other dogs, especially calm male dogs. Female dogs can get me a little too excited sometimes, so I may do best as the only dog in the home or with a relaxed male buddy. Cats? Well… they’re just a little too mysterious for me, so I’d prefer a home without them. My family loves me very much, but sadly one of the kids developed a severe allergy to me. They want me to find a home where I can still be part of everyday life and get all the cuddles and love I enjoy so much.
I’ve had a wonderful life full of love, and I’m hoping my next family will be just as kind and warm. I promise to be a loyal companion and a very good boy.
Sometimes people think older dogs are “past their prime”… but the truth is, we’re often the easiest, calmest, and most grateful companions you could ever welcome into your home.
