Shadow Needs Your Help

ShadowHello, my name is Shadow and here is my story. I was purchased from a pet shop and all was going well in my life until I began to limp. When a vet advised that I would need expensive surgery my life began to fall apart. My family was not willing to pay for so much as an x-ray and I soon found myself at the RSPCA in Townsville.

The Other Side Of Rescue

BrunoTrisha Jarvis and Wendy Donohue often hear the comment that rescuing and rehoming Golden Retrievers must be so rewarding, and it is. It’s also very time consuming, financially draining and quite often heart breaking, but placing a Goldie into a loving home makes it all worthwhile.

There is another side of rescue and we would like to introduce you to a puppy called Bruno. Bruno came to GRR by way of a vet who would not, to his credit, euthanise a seven month old puppy and suggested that the owner surrender his pup to a rescue organisation. The AWL in Brisbane discovered that the reason for surrender was that Bruno had, on several occasions, tried to bite family members and was not suitable for sales and GRR was contacted for assistance to save this pup and give him a second chance at life.

Thank you to management and staff at Evolution Hairdressing for purchasing and wearing GRR's T-shirts and raising much needed funds for our rescues. A local business which has very much helped Golden Retriever Rescue Inc.
