WELCOME TO YANKEE GOLDEN RETRIEVER RESCUE (YGRR)


Happily Adopted!
Lily, YGRR #4554


Four-month-old Lily found herself in need of a new home when her owner realized she made a mistake after purchasing Lily as a puppy for her little girl. As Lily grew, she had lots of energy that needed a variety of constructive outlets. Her family was overwhelmed with the amount of time and attention that Lily needed and knew their little Golden deserved a home where people would have the time to spend with her.

Lily was quickly admitted to the program, seen by the YGRR veterinarian and given her tattoo! When she arrived at Riverview, the staff found her to be a happy, smart, energetic Golden puppy. Lily was overjoyed to spend time in the pool and swimming was a great way for Lily to work off some of her energy! Repeat adopters were called who had the time and expertise to ensure Lily would get the structure, training and affection that she needed. Lily was delighted to meet her new family! She now resides happily in her new home where she is known as "Lily the Love." Lily is a busy girl and her family is committed to giving this lucky little girl a wonderful future.

YGRR is a non-profit, charitable 501(c)(3) organization which provides veterinary care and permanent new homes for Golden Retrievers from the six New England states (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont). We are a full-service rescue and we assist Goldens of all ages and medical conditions. Our youngest Rescue Golden was part of an abandoned litter born at Riverview (our rescue and adoption facility) and our oldest Rescue Golden was fourteen at the time of admission to our program. We rescued our first Golden in April, 1985 and placed our 4000th Golden during the year 2004.

ALL the Goldens who appear on this Web site are YGRR Goldens. YGRR relies on donations, fund-raising activities and memberships for its income. We do not receive any state or federal funds. Donations to YGRR are tax deductible.
