At just about 3 years old, Panda has already mastered one very important skill: loving with her whole heart! This beautiful, golden-cream girl is a delightful mix of playful puppy and world-class snuggler. She may be a little shy at first, but give her a bit of kindness and affection, and she quickly blossoms into an affectionate sweetheart who gives kisses, leans in close, and even tries to climb into your lap. At around 65 pounds, Panda might be a little big for lap-dog duty, but don't bother telling her that!
Panda is happiest when she's close to her people, soaking up attention and enjoying all the belly rubs she can get. Her idea of a perfect day includes a little time to stretch her legs and enjoy some zoomies in the yard, followed by a cozy spot beside her favorite person. She's generally mellow, friendly, and easygoing, with a playful side that comes out when she's feeling comfortable. She also appears to enjoy the company of other dogs and has been calm when dogs pass by her kennel.
Panda is a well-mannered girl who keeps her kennel clean and takes life at a relaxed pace. She's still learning the ropes when it comes to leash walking and basic commands, but she's a willing companion who loves treats and should respond nicely to positive, reward-based training. She would also appreciate a little grooming and pampering to help her gorgeous coat look and feel its best.
What Panda wants most isn't complicated. She wants a family to belong to, a comfortable place to call home, and people who won't mind sharing their sofa with a very affectionate, slightly oversized lap dog. Whether you're a single person, a couple, or a family looking for a sweet new companion, Panda may be just the girl to fit right into your life. Panda is ready to trade homeless life for soft couches, gentle hands, and a family of her very own. If you're looking for a loving companion who will happily soak up every belly rub and give plenty of affection in return, this golden girl is waiting to meet you. Could you be the one who makes Panda's dreams come true?
Panda is up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed, microchipped, and heartworm negative. She has been given a Proheart 6 injection for 6 months of protection. If you are approved to adopt through SGRR, are home most of the day, and have an active lifestyle, please contact Cheryl Kewley at ckewley123@gmail.com to be considered to adopt precious Panda.
Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical. When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to become an important, forever part of their life journey by continuing the rehabilitation we have begun.

ABOUT OUR RESCUE
Before being approved to adopt, all potential adopters will be required to complete our online application and participate in our pre-adoption review process. The process includes the completion of an online application, a reference from the applicants' vet, a phone interview, and a visit to the applicants' home. The application process helps us determine what type of Golden would be best suited for the applicants' life style. In some cases, the specific dog you are interested in may have found a home before this process is complete or further assessment may indicate that this dog is not the right match for your family. We are frequently getting new Goldens in need of a home, so we encourage you to apply and complete the application process so that when the right dog comes along you will be ready.
The information provided on each dog is based on the observations of our vets, volunteers, fosters, and when available, trainers. While we do our best to report any and all issues, SGRR does not make any guarantees as to the health or temperament of any dog. Dogs evolve differently in different environments and we cannot predict with any certainty how the dog you adopt will behave and adapt in your home.

A contract is signed on the day of adoption. Under the terms of the contract, all adopters are required to bring their SGRR dog to a vet within 7 business days. All dogs receive basic veterinary care prior to adoption. However, if an adopter's vet identifies an illness that an adopter is not willing to treat, then the dog may be returned and a full refund would be provided.
Most of our dogs are fostered in private homes. We do not have a facility to visit. We are committed to our dogs before, during, and after adoption! To this end, the rescue retains an interest in each dog and our dogs can never be surrendered, re-homed, or sold. Should an adopter no longer be able to keep their SGRR dog, SGRR must be notified so that we can take the dog back into rescue and place it into another home. We reserve the right to remove a dog at any time should we find the adopter is no longer providing proper care. Adopters agree to follow up visits as needed.
Please be a ray of light for this Sunshine dog and make a tax deductible donation toward medical care and other expenses. Every cent of your generosity goes directly toward the care of a Sunshine dog.
