Want to help a dog, even if you’re not able to adopt or foster? Then join the Foster Buddy program!

As a Foster Buddy, you can lend a hand to a dog in need. We provide veterinary care for our foster dogs including making sure that they are spayed or neutered, current on their shots, microchipped, checked for heartworm, provided with monthly heartworm preventative, and given any other necessary veterinary care while in our care.

Some of our goldens have serious or unusual medical conditions and require extensive treatment. Our requested adoption donation does not cover the cost of those treatments, so having a foster buddy helps defray the cost of those treatments. In addition, we sometimes incur expenses for shelter fees or we have to reimburse other rescue groups for their expenses in helping the dog.

You can help by deciding how much support you’d like to provide for a dog and donating that sum of money.

To become a Foster Buddy, pick your Foster Buddy dog from those listed on our Goldens Available page. After picking your Foster Buddy, mail your tax deductible check or money order to:
