Adopt a Golden Atlanta [AGA] is a volunteer, nonprofit organization dedicated to finding warm, loving permanent homes for Golden Retrievers [both purebred and high golden mixes] in order to prevent them from becoming strays or adding to the shelter overpopulation.
If a non-golden is best friends with a golden who is surrendered to us, non golden will not be left behind and will accompany the golden into our program and placed with the golden to live together in their new home.
Golden Retrievers, regardless of medical needs or age, will receive comprehensive evaluation, spay/neutering services, veterinary care, behavioral training if required, and safe passage into a permanent loving home.
In addition to providing those services, Adopt a Golden Atlanta is intent on treating dog owners who are faced with surrendering their dogs with the utmost respect, understanding and compassion. It is also our obligation to educate and assist the metropolitan Atlanta general public, and dog owners specifically, regarding issues such as responsible pet ownership, spay/neutering, obedience training, and veterinary/specialists referrals.
Our goal is to reduce the number of Golden Retrievers sent to shelters. AGA will never allow a golden to die in a shelter. AGA relies solely on donations and has a 501(c)(3) classification with the IRS. Your donation is tax deductible. We also meet the requirements for corporate matching, employee giving and volunteer grant programs.

ADOPTED! When Ella Lang was found wandering as a stray, there was hope that the microchip she carried would quickly lead her home. But no one came forward to claim her. With no family waiting for her, this sweet Golden suddenly found herself in a shelter, uncertain of what would come next. That’s when AGA stepped in. Ella’s name appeared on AGA’s incoming list, where she caught the eye of someone who knew firsthand just how much a rescued Golden can change a life. A devoted AGA volunteer for 20 years, he had opened his heart and home to several AGA dogs over the years, including seniors who needed ongoing medical care and a loving place to spend their remaining years. He had recently said goodbye to his last rescue Golden and was beginning to think the time might be right for another companion. When he saw Ella on the incoming list, his first thought was simply to help. He offered to foster her so she could get out of the shelter and into the comfort of a home. But sometimes a foster dog arrives exactly where she was meant to be. Ella may have entered his home as a stray who needed a safe place to land, but it wasn’t long before a bond was created. And for Ella, a dog no one had claimed, there was suddenly someone who wanted not only to care for her, but to make her part of his life. Renamed Rosie, she has settled happily into the good life with her retired Dad who says Rosie loves chasing balls and racing through the fenced-in yard with joyful Golden zoomies. And when the fetch game is finished, Rosie entertains herself for longer by tossing her toys in the air and catching them. Her playful spirit has brought laughter and energy back into a home that had been missing the special presence of a Golden. Together, Rosie and her new dad have begun the next chapter they were both ready for: one filled with companionship, adventures, visits with friends, plenty of playtime, and the comfort of simply having someone by your side. What began as a temporary foster home became something much more. Rosie had found the person who would give her the love, security, and life she deserved. Live your best life, Rosie! #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue

𝗡𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥 𝗢𝗥𝗣𝗛𝗔𝗡 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗠𝗢𝗡𝗧𝗛: 𝗚𝗢𝗟𝗗𝗜𝗘💛 This handsome 7-year-old, 74-pound Golden Retriever is a gentle giant with a 𝘽𝙄𝙂 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩 and so much love to give! Goldie, his friend Luna, and their 9 puppies were surrendered to a local shelter after their family experienced a loss. Thankfully, AGA stepped in to give them all the second chances they deserved.

He's a calm, easygoing boy who gets along wonderfully with other dogs and has been great with his foster family's children. He even enjoys a little playtime and the occasional zoomies! 𝗛𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲: • A fenced yard preferred • Someone home most of the day • A patient family who will give him time to settle into his new surroundings • Adopter lives within 45 minutes of one of AGA's vets in Alpharetta or Buckhead for his HW+ treatment • A home with minimal steps during his HW+ treatment Goldie walks beautifully on leash, is food motivated, and eager to learn. He can be a little nervous during transitions, but once he feels safe, 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗲𝘁, 𝘁𝗲𝗱𝗱𝘆-𝗯𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀!

ADOPTED! Max was found as a stray. When the shelter called, AGA responded quickly, knowing we could help this sweet boy find his forever home. His fosters described him as gentle, good with other dogs and he loved being with his people. He was a special boy needing a special home. When his new parents met Max, they fell in love. After introducing Max to their dog, everyone approved, and Max found his forever home. After one night on an orthopedic bed, Max decided that sleeping with his people was even better. He and his Frenchie sister are quickly becoming good friends. Mom is an early riser, so Max has alone time with her. But when Dad is home, Max is all in with him. Max loves backyard zoomies and playing with balls. He also loves to sit by the backyard window and calmly watch the birds and chipmunks. Thanks to everyone who helped Max find his perfect family! #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! 9-year-old Shelby’s world changed when her beloved mom passed away. With no family members able to continue caring for her, Shelby suddenly found herself in need of a new home. AGA stepped in to make sure this sweet senior girl would have the chance to find another family to love and a place to call forever. From the start, Shelby’s foster mom had a hard time believing she was 9-years-old. Shelby loved long walks, meeting new people, & going for car rides. She was always happy to hop in the car & join her foster mom for errands, ready for whatever adventure the day might bring. But sometimes senior dogs have to wait a little longer for their happily ever after, & Shelby was no exception. For 4 months, she waited patiently for the right family to find her. She met a few families along the way, but things never quite worked out. Shelby just kept being herself, while everyone at AGA knew her perfect family was waiting. And then, one day, everything changed. At an AGA Meet & Greet for approved applicants, Shelby met a couple who were immediately smitten. They saw what her foster mom had known all along: beneath Shelby’s powdered face was a joyful, loving girl with so much life and love left to give. They knew she was the one. An in-home meeting was arranged, but Shelby apparently didn’t need much convincing. She walked in, found herself a comfortable spot on the sofa, & quickly warmed up to her parents. After 4 months of waiting, Shelby was home. Today, her parents are over the moon to have Shelby as part of their family. Mom says Shelby likes to “nap hard & play harder.” She prances along on her walks, taking in all the wonderful smells & no one believes her parents when they tell them she is 9-years-old. With her energy & walking pace, most people would guess she is closer to 5 or 6! Now she is where she belongs: loved, cherished, and enjoying every minute of her second chapter. Live your best life, sweet Shelby. You waited a long time for your forever, and it was worth every minute. ❤️

Happy Howl-O-Ween from our AGA family! 🎃👻 We are wishing everyone a safe and treat-filled Halloween from your friends at Adopt a Golden Atlanta! ✨

ADOPTED! Dorothy was found as a stray, roaming the streets with Rose. These two had built a friendship out of survival; however, they were happy to find separate loving families. Well, success - she is HOME!! Dorothy (aka Dory-Maple-Hazel-Tillie-Turtle) is now going through a new naming contest as well as a Halloween costume contest! She and her new 4-legged sister, Phoebe, strutted their stuff dressed as their favorite characters. It's obvious this Halloween and many more holidays to come over the years, will be filled with treats instead of tricks for this sweet girl! In addition to her costumed partner, Dorothy now has a mom who is home most of the time, a dad who loves her, human brothers and sister, a fenced yard to play in and a bonus; a lake for swimming! We know Dorothy will thrive in her new home surrounded with love and fun! Thank you to all that helped Dorothy find her way home.

ADOPTED! Two-year-old Ranger’s original family loved him dearly, but with a two-year-old at home and another baby on the way, they realized they could no longer give this energetic Golden the time and attention he needed & deserved. Wanting the very best for him, they reached out to AGA to help Ranger find a home where he could truly thrive. It didn’t take long for Ranger’s foster family to discover that he was a bundle of energy with an enormous zest for life! He loved playing with his foster pup brother, and it quickly became clear that Ranger would be happiest in a home with another dog for companionship and a family whose active lifestyle could keep up with his enthusiasm. Ranger met a few potential families along the way, but sometimes finding the perfect home takes a little time and patience. Then Ranger met his forever family, and everything fell into place. Today, Ranger is living his very best life with a work-from-home mom, dad, two human brothers, and two canine brothers, which means there is almost always someone around to give him attention or join in the fun. He loves walks in the park, but nothing makes him happier than finding someone willing to throw a ball. According to Mom, Ranger is just a little obsessed with fetch! And when we say Ranger has energy, we mean it. One day, he logged an incredible 49,000 steps on his Fi Mini and still had energy to spare! Fortunately, he has found a family that embraces his enthusiasm for life. He adores all his brothers, both human and canine, and even gets to go to work with his oldest brother, where he has become a favorite with everyone he meets. Most importantly, Ranger is exactly where he was meant to be: surrounded by people and pups who love his joyful spirit and are happy to keep up with him. And Mom’s verdict on her energetic Golden boy? - “He’s the best boy!” Welcome to forever, sweet Ranger ❤ #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness

ADOPTED! Sweet Chloe has been adopted and is living her best life. She came to AGA when her previous owner was no longer able to care for her. She was suffering from Separation Anxiety and we knew we needed someone who could be with her and help her become more confident. She found her forever home and is living her best life. She's gone on many adventures with her new mom, including the nail salon! She's also been to Florida as well as the north Georgia mountains where she prefers shopping and restaurants to hiking. No muddy paws for her. She's a total girly girl! She loves going to restaurants and shops in Atlanta and seems to be the social chairman of her mom's building. She likes to stop at the concierge desk to check in and say hello. She is also well known for her big smile and her soft coat and people often ask if she is a mix with something glamorous like an afghan or borzoi bc she is so tall and has such a long face. Oh and she can easily fit two tennis balls at a time in her mouth :) Congratulations Chloe!

ADOPTED! Rose came to AGA after being found as a stray alongside her friend Dorothy. While they loved one another, they were not bonded to each other. Despite their uncertain beginnings, these beautiful girls quickly showed everyone what a special pup she is! Rose has such a gentle nature, calm personality, and love for being close to her people; she has a way of making everyone around her fall in love! She is happiest right by her people's side, soaking up all the love and attention she can get! Rose’s new family met her at last month’s Meet & Greet, and it didn’t take long for them to realize she was something special. Her new family has a long history of opening their hearts and homes to animals in need, whether through fostering, adoption, or lovingly caring for senior pups. They were hoping to welcome a sweet, laid-back velcro dog into their home, and with Rose, they got everything they were looking for and more! Rose now has an amazing new mom and dad, two kids who already adore her, and three furry siblings - Bailey, a fellow rescue and Lab mix, and two kitties. With plenty of companionship, endless love, and a lake house for family adventures, it’s safe to say our sweet Rose hit the absolute jackpot! For a girl who loves nothing more than being close to her people, we couldn’t imagine a better beginning to her next chapter. Rose now has a whole family to love on, and we know she’ll be soaking up every second of it!💗 #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Sadie came to AGA after being found as a stray, and right away she captured the hearts of everyone she met! With her gentle personality, affectionate nature, and love for being close to her people, Sadie was ready to find a family to call her own. Sadie’s new family had recently said goodbye to their beloved golden retriever and knew they had room in their hearts and home to love another. As fate would have it, Sadie (now Lady) was just the girl they needed! She now has an amazing new mom and dad, along with two furry siblings - Gus, a 5-year-old golden, and a 15-year-old West Highland White Terrier. Lady’s new life will be filled with endless snuggles, endless stuffies, and fun adventures at the family’s lake house! Lady has already met her new family’s grandchildren and done wonderfully with them. She’s especially attached to her new mom and is settling into her new life surrounded by so much love. It’s safe to say Lady has found exactly where she belongs, and her family couldn’t be any happier to have her! We can’t wait to see all the wonderful memories they’ll make together.

ADOPTED! Zoe Pup is the last of the K-Pop litter to be adopted. The eight littermates, plus their mom, dad, and older sister, golden pup, came to AGA when they were all surrendered to the Fulton County Animal Shelter. We welcomed all 11 dogs with open arms. Zoe Pup, now named Hunny, has been adopted by an AMAZING family. Hunny’s parents work from home, and she has a nice, fenced yard to play in. PLUS, she will get to see and play with her littermate, Bunny (Romance Pup)! The littermates live close and will see each other on a regular basis since they were adopted by siblings (how fitting!!).

ADOPTED! When 5-year-old Fin's family could no longer afford his care, they returned him to the breeder from whom they had originally purchased him as an 8-week-old puppy. Knowing Fin deserved a chance at a loving forever home, the breeder reached out to AGA for help. When Fin entered the AGA program, it was clear that he had spent most of his life outdoors. Although he craved human attention, he was extremely timid and unsure of the world around him. Fin didn't know basic commands, was afraid of crates, nervous in the car, and had never really learned how to walk on a leash. His foster parents could see the sweet dog hidden beneath his fears. He simply needed patience, love, and someone to show him what life inside a caring home could be. Before long, Fin began to blossom. He discovered the comfort of snuggling in bed with his foster parents, greeted the sight of a leash with an enthusiastic wagging tail, and gradually gained the confidence to meet new friends during neighborhood walks. As his confidence grew, so did his personality, and it wasn't long before he was ready to begin the search for his forever family. Fin's new mom and dad are retired and had lost their beloved Golden Retriever last Christmas. While they deeply missed having a golden in their lives, they knew it would take a very special dog to fill the void left by their cherished companion. The moment they learned about Fin, their hearts filled with hope. They traveled from out of state to meet this sweet boy and quickly realized they had found the dog they had been waiting for. After two visits, the decision was easy. Fin officially became part of their family and began his new life in a home complete with a large fenced yard, a swimming pool, and, most importantly, endless love and attention from his devoted mom and dad. After waiting five years to discover the joys of being a cherished family member, Fin has finally found exactly where he belongs. Live your best life, Fin! 🐾❤️ #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness

ADOPTED! Ellie Pup came to AGA at just 8-months old. She arrived to AGA with 10 other dogs (including the 8 K-Pop Puppies) after their family experienced a loss and could no longer care for them. At just a young age, Ellie was very fearful of strangers, but with some time and patience from her foster, she started to come out of her shell! Enter her new mom and dad! They were calm and patient with Ellie, and she felt comfortable with them right away. It was such a perfect match! Ellie is continuing to grow into a more confident golden, and we’re so happy she found a family where she can keep blossoming. Welcome to forever, sweet girl!! 💗

ADOPTED! Sweet Silver came to AGA at 5.5 years old after retiring from breeding. She is a gentle, quiet girl with an old soul. When Silver first arrived, she was still learning so many of the little things most dogs take for granted — feeling comfortable inside, gaining confidence, and discovering that life could be so much more than what she had known before. It didn’t take long for Silver to begin blossoming in her foster home. With patience, love, and a little help from her foster sister — who quickly became one of her favorite companions — she started gaining confidence and learning just how good life as a beloved family dog could be. Silver, now Maggie May, found the sweetest forever home with her new mom and golden sister, Bailey. She has settled in as if she’s lived there her whole life — lounging on her favorite quilt, choosing her favorite toys, following her mom room to room, and spending her days alongside Bailey. It’s safe to say Maggie May is finally right where she belongs. 💕 Welcome to forever sweet girl! #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

That’s when AGA stepped in to help Moon on his journey to finding the forever family he deserved.

ADOPTED! Mira Pup is the seventh of the K-Pop litter to be adopted! The eight littermates came to AGA from Fulton County Animal Shelter when they were surrendered at eight weeks old. Their Golden mom had gotten out and was with the neighbor’s male Golden.

Shadow is a true shadow dog — happiest when he’s right by his person’s side! He loves attention, pets, cuddles, and even considers himself a bit of a bed hog.

ADOPTED! Some families open their hearts to one senior orphan… and some extraordinary families say, “Why not TWO?” 🥹🐾 We are absolutely thrilled to share that Muttley Sr. and Riley Sr. were adopted by the same amazing family! Muttley now goes by the name Murphy. At 10 years old, he arrived at AGA severely underweight, covered in painful road rash, and in need of surgery. After six months of healing, good meals, walks, and so much love from his amazing foster family, Murphy was finally ready for his forever home. Today, he enjoys country life with his retired parents, daily walks across ten acres, his canine brothers Riley and Oliver, and his feline sister Piper. And apparently, Murphy still has more energy than Mom and Dad! Sweet Riley came to AGA at 12 years young after being found as a stray, when his previous family chose not to take him back. It didn’t take long for everyone to discover what a happy, cuddly, playful sweetheart he was. Today, Riley is spending his golden years exactly as he deserves — with his new family and furry brothers, Oliver and Murphy, running and playing in his backyard and soaking up all the love he has always deserved. This family didn't just open their home to one senior orphan. They opened it to TWO.❤️ Now Riley and Murphy get to spend their golden years surrounded by love, furry siblings, soft beds, full bellies, plenty of room to explore, and a family committed to giving them the very best. Because while it may not be common for two senior orphans to find their forever home together, who are we to deny these boys the life of luxury they deserve in their golden years? 👑🐾 Happy tails, Riley & Murphy! We couldn't be happier for you both. 💛 #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Baby Pup is the third of the 8 Golden Pups (the K-Pop Litter) to be adopted.

Baby Pup found her forever home with previous AGA adopters! They were so excited to adopt Baby Pup. Baby has human siblings to help play and take care of her. She will enjoy lots of walks, toys, and a wonderful life with her new family.

ADOPTED! Fulton County Animal Shelter reached out to AGA with a request to take a litter of 8 golden puppies, and we obviously said yes (just look at them)! The owner had shared that her female Golden had gotten out and met up with the neighbor’s male Golden. About a week later, we also took in mom & dad and an older golden pup, who were surrendered to the shelter later. We were happy to bring in the eight-week-old "K-Pop" litter, their parents, and the older golden pup. Mystery Pup was adopted by an amazing family and now goes by the name Tully! He has parents who work from home and a big Golden sister, Georgia. Tully has lots of walks, playing ball, and trips to the mountains & beach in his future.

*Thank you for all the interest and love for Ozzie! If you’re interested in him, please review our adoption process on our website and if you meet the criteria- you can apply.

Approved or in-process applicants please reach out to your Application Coordinator* 𝗠𝗘𝗘𝗧 𝗢𝗭𝗭𝗜𝗘! 💙 Ozzie is a 3-year-old golden boy weighing about 75 pounds. He was found as a stray by a kind good samaritan who brought him to a local shelter. When no one claimed this handsome fellow, AGA welcomed him with open arms. For almost two months now, Ozzie has been living his best life in foster care — and he has settled in so nicely! This loving, sweet, active boy is ready to find the family he can call his own. 🐾 Ozzie LOVES having doggy friends! His foster has two AGA Goldens, and Ozzie has become the best of buds with both of them. 🥰🐶 He also absolutely LOVES to run and play, so a fenced yard is a must for him. Ozzie is a happy, enthusiastic boy who can get a little jumpy when he’s excited; he loves to give kisses, and he even gives THE BEST hugs. Because of his enthusiasm and goofy personality, he would do best with older kids who can match his play style! This affectionate, fun-loving boy has so much love to give, and we know he is going to make a fantastic family dog! ❤️ He is house-trained, and would love someone who is home most of the day (stay-at-home or work-from-home), as his favorite place to be is by your side.

Unfortunately, Lainey has been diagnosed with an inoperable cancer and is looking for a permanent foster who is local to the Atlanta area (she is in no pain currently). AGA will cover all of her medical care, and all you will need to provide is a loving home for this next chapter of her life. Lainey is extremely sweet. She is fully house-trained, loves to give hugs, and is good with kids (even small ones) and other dogs. She does not have a prey drive, so she may also get along with cats. 🩷 She loves affection and attention. She knows how to sit and shake, walks wonderfully on the leash, and loves a good bone. 🦴 So, if you’ve ever thought about making a difference for a dog that needs it… 𝙏𝙃𝙄𝙎 𝙄𝙎 𝙔𝙊𝙐𝙍 𝙈𝙊𝙈𝙀𝙉𝙏. 🐾 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝗺𝗶𝘁 𝗮 𝗙𝗢𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗘 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗙𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗟𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘆.

*UPDATE* ALL THREE ORPHANS HW+ TREATMENTS ARE FULLY SPONSORED!! THANK YOU!!! We have three orphans who are 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 (HW+) and in need of some sponsors for their treatments 💛 Every golden (and golden-hearted) deserves a healthy heart. Can you be part of their story? Make a tax-deductible donation with the link in our bio! Luna is a sweet 4-year-old golden girl who came to AGA alongside Goldie, a 7-year-old Golden boy. They were surrendered to a local shelter with some of their puppies after their owners were no longer able to care for them. Shadow is a 3-year-old Flat-Coated Retriever who found himself in a local shelter, and no one came to claim him. AGA welcomed all three of these dogs plus the puppies with open arms. As of now (6:15PM), Shadow has raised 51% of his treatment goal, Luna has raised 10% of her treatment goal, and Goldie has raised 0% of his treatment goal. All three of these orphans are incredibly sweet and loving, and would be so grateful for more kind sponsors to help them all heal 💛

ADOPTED! Casamigos, now Ziggy, has hit the jackpot with his new family! 💛 From the very moment Casa came to AGA, it was impossible not to fall in love with him. Despite everything he had been through, he was the absolute sweetest, goofiest, happiest boy who truly never met a stranger. He is playful and full of puppy energy, loves other dogs, and is always happiest with a toy in his mouth! Ziggy’s new family are previous AGA adopters, and he now has two rescue brothers, Elvis and Ozzie, to play with and show him the ropes. With both of his new parents working from home, this little velcro boy gets to have his people nearby all day - which is exactly how he likes it! When Ziggy isn’t running around his big fenced-in backyard with his brothers, he gets to spend weekends visiting the family’s cabin in the mountains and plenty of time at the lake, where he is already learning to love the water. His new family describes him as the cutest, sweetest boy who just never stops smiling, and we couldn’t think of a more perfect way to describe him. Congratulations Ziggy! Happy tails, sweet boy! #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Red came to AGA after his owner passed away, & the family could no longer care for him. Like many young dogs, Red had been a bit mischievous as a puppy, so his previous owner decided he should live primarily outdoors. When he was inside, he spent most of his time in a sunroom, separated from the family. AGA knew Red deserved the chance to experience the life of a beloved pet. Red was welcomed into a foster home & they quickly discovered what a special boy he was - he loved everyone he met & was happiest when surrounded by people. He would even wake his foster parents during the night just to ask for a few extra pets & cuddles. He also loved playing with his foster dog sister. Red has lots of interest (I mean can you blame him!), but one application immediately stood out to his foster family. The family had previously adopted through AGA and already shared their home with two goldens: a distinguished senior named Bodi Bear and a spirited 2yr old named Archer Pinson. Archer needed a friend who could match his energy, while Bodi was more interested in napping. A meet was arranged, & it quickly became obvious that Red had found exactly where he belonged. Today, Red is known as Winston Franklin, because every dog deserves a middle name. Winston's new life is everything a golden could dream of. He has a work-from-home parents, a teenage human sister, two golden brothers, a fenced yard, beloved stuffies, & regular adventures. Winston absolutely adores playing with his brothers, especially Archer, who has become his very best friend. The two can often be found playing together. He has also earned an unforgettable nickname: Winston Wigglesworth III. The title comes from his trademark full-body wiggle & the enthusiastic way his entire backside swings whenever he's excited, which is often. And who can blame him? After all, Winston now wakes up each day surrounded by a loving family, devoted golden brothers, endless affection, & the security of knowing he is exactly where he belongs. For a dog who once spent much of his life on the outside looking in, Winston's transformation is remarkable. Today, he is cherished, included, & deeply loved. Congratulations!

ADOPTED! Goose came to AGA when his previous owner surrendered him so he could have a better life. Before coming to us, he spent most of his days in a crate while his owner worked. He is a sweet, energetic boy who is great with animals, kids, and people. While in his foster homes, he was a good boy, though a bit timid about his new surroundings, and he was very popular at our Meet & Greet event. Goose, now named Colby, has been adopted by a wonderful family. His new parents are both retired and have previously owned three Goldens and were looking for their fourth male golden boy. They also have young grandchildren who visit frequently. Colby goes on several 45-minute walks a day and is working up to longer walks with his new mom. He wakes his owners up each morning with paws on the bed and a lick on the face, and he loves playing with their daughter’s two large dogs in their fenced yard. Colby has already bonded deeply with his new parents — he even waits by the door for them if they step out for just five minutes. His new parents are completely in love with him and think he is adorable. Thank you to everyone who helped this lucky dog find his forever home! #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

An Update from Adopt a Golden Atlanta 💛 Our AGA family continues to make it possible for us to say “yes!” to Goldens and High-Golden mixes who need us. And as the number of orphans entering our program and the costs of their care continue to grow, we’re making a few updates to better reflect the reality of what it takes to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome each dog in our care. Beginning Tuesday, September 15, 2026, AGA will be implementing an updated application fee, adoption fee structure, and adoption application criteria. We’ve also updated our minimum age for adoption and fostering to 24 years old. For those already in the adoption process: applicants who have been approved, are in the process of being approved, or have submitted an application that has been accepted for consideration by 11:59 PM on September 14, 2026, will remain under the previous fee structure. And there’s some exciting news, too! 🐾 We’re introducing Volunteers in Training — a new opportunity for those ages 18–23 who want to get involved with AGA and help prepare our orphans for their forever homes. 💛 As we head into a new season, we’re incredibly grateful for the continued support of our AGA family. Every volunteer hour, donation, share, application, and helping hand allows us to keep showing up for the dogs who need us most. Thank you for being part of the AGA family and for helping us continue this journey — one Golden at a time. 🐶💛

ADOPTED! Huxley retired from his years of breeding and joined the AGA Family, where he was met by a group of smiling volunteers, always happy to welcome a new furry face. His first stop was his foster home, where he was shown how wonderful retirement can be: living indoors with his own soft bed to sleep in, fresh food and water in his own bowl, a human to snuggle, and a happy golden foster sister to play and romp in the yard with. The next stop was the monthly Meet & Greet where he met many potential approved adopters searching for that special golden to add to their family. He lapped up all the attention he had watched the puppies he'd sired garner, and I'm sure he thought, "this isn't half bad". There was one family that stood out, and they were smitten by his handsome face and felt he would blend right into their home. They have a female golden and wanted a companion for her, so after a couple of meetings, and both dogs gave their paws of approval of each other, the adoption was done. Huxley now has two parents at home with him, his new doggie sister, Maddie, a fenced yard, and lots of attention and playtime. Retirement sure looks good on you, Huxley! Thank you to all the people who helped Huxley find his forever home. #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED!! One year old, Scout, was found with Blazer Pup and Steele Pup in South Georgia when they were dumped on someones property. These pups were searching for food, shelter, and truly just fighting to survive. The three dogs were brought into the AGA family and were vetted and went into loving foster homes. Unfortunately, Scout was heartworm positive. And during his x-rays to stage his heartworms, it also showed he had been shot with BB pellets in the past. Scout may not look golden, but he truly does have a golden heart and never let any of this stop him from being the sweetest boy in the world. While he was waiting for his perfect match, Scout spent several weeks in loving and patient foster homes. Scout, now named Wallace, has completed his heartworm treatment and is officially HOME!!! Wallace’s dad works from home and loves him dearly. He also has two human brothers to snuggle and play with. Wallace also has a special grandma who loves him so much. This sweet boy is so gentle and loving and deserving of all the love he is now getting. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of his journey.

ADOPTED! Poptart Doodle was originally found as a stray, covered in muck and painful, matted fur. After spending a couple of weeks at the shelter — where the staff did their best to shave him and provide some comfort — this sweet boy joined the AGA family. His foster family described him as a total cuddle bug who just needed some training and activity to burn off his energy. At four years old, he still had a bit of learning to do. His new family was looking for a companion to join them, and as soon as they met him - they knew he was the one. Both parents grew up with dogs; his new mom works from home, and his new dad takes him for long walks every night. They also enjoy three-day weekends, which allow them to give him plenty of attention. Now renamed Sully, he is sleeping on the couch and attending further training to perfect his manners. His new family shares that he is incredibly smart and a very good dog. Thank you to everyone who helped this sweet boy along the way to his forever home. #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Sweet Bailey found herself in a crowded, loud local shelter when her family found themselves unable to care for her any longer. When our volunteers went to the shelter to meet her, they found a terrified pup, curled up in a tight ball trying to make herself invisible to the world. It took a lot of coaxing and help from the animal control staff to get her out of her pen and moved to a "quiet" area. Once there, her body began to relax, and she even managed a slight wag of the tail and gave one of the volunteers a shy kiss. She gained her freedom ride the next day and went into one of our foster homes where she was provided quiet, gentle, and patient attention. She began to come out of her shell and showed just how sweet she truly was. She began to trust people, but still had a ways to go. Loud, crowded places still overwhelmed her, and it was clear she needed a calm place to call home. Her new parents saw her on the website and felt something tug at them. They have a cat and needed to make sure she'd be ok with a cat, so meetings were held and the potential was there. It took some time for Bailey to fully come out of her shell, but now she's just where she needs to be! A forever home with a dad who works from home and a mom who can take her to work occasionally. She gets lots of love and attention, playtime, and adventures to local dog-friendly establishments. Bailey is thriving in her new home and is a great example of what rescue and a loving home can do for an animal! Live your best, tail-wagging life, Bailey! #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Bean had a difficult start in life. For much of her early years, she lived outdoors in a runner and later found herself being rehomed through Facebook Marketplace. Unfortunately, her new situation wasn't what she deserved, as she spent long periods confined to a crate. Wanting a better future for her, her owner made the loving decision to reach out to AGA so Bean could have the chance to find the life she had always deserved. Despite the challenges she faced, Bean never lost her sweet spirit. She remained a loving, affectionate girl who greeted everyone she met with a wagging tail and a hopeful heart. Bean's new mom was already familiar with the joy of adoption as a previous AGA adopter. She was looking for a companion for her 9-year-old Golden Retriever, Hannah. After a successful introduction between the two dogs, it was clear that Bean had found her match. As a retiree with plenty of time and love to give, her new mom knew she could provide the caring home Bean had been waiting for. Now affectionately known as Beanie, she has embraced her new life with enthusiasm. She has charmed the entire family, including children and grandchildren, and loves being at the center of every gathering. According to her mom, Beanie adores toys, especially her beloved stuffies, has never met a meal she didn't enjoy, and happily curls up next to her every night. Beanie and Hannah have become wonderful companions. Together they spend their days exploring the fenced backyard, playing, and enjoying the simple pleasures of being dogs. After years of uncertainty, Beanie is finally experiencing what every dog deserves: a loving family, a warm bed, plenty of toys, and a best friend by her side. Her journey is a beautiful reminder that it's never too late for a second chance, and Beanie's future is filled with all the love, happiness, and adventures she has always deserved. #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love

ADOPTED! Joni Doodle found her way to AGA when her family made the difficult decision to allow us to find a new home for her. She lived in a very active, loving home with two young boys but they realized they just couldn't give her the love and attention she deserved. When the her new family saw Joni and read her story on our website, they immediately thought she would be a great fit for their family. They have two young kids and another dog, so it seemed like it was meant to be. They all met; the dogs gave each other lots of sniffs and wags and the kids were really excited. Everyone was all in and so excited to welcome sweet Joni to the family. She's living her best life with two kids to play with and her fur-sister Bailey to hang with all day long. Joni loves going on walks with the family and after a long day of playing, wants nothing more than snuggling in bed at night. She loves her "stuffies" and has one with her at all times. Thanks to everyone who helped this sweet girl find her forever home 💛 #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Ranger, a very young 11 year old sweet golden boy, came to AGA when his family could no longer provide the attention he needed. He went to one of our loving fosters who shared her home & love with him and nurtured him through his transition. Ranger was a hit with everyone he met, young, old, small, or large including every dog. In short, Ranger is the perfect golden! His new family saw his profile on our website, and having a soft spot for senior dogs, knew they could provide him a loving home and spoil him to no end. They had an initial meeting to see if their current dog, Finn and Ranger could be friends, and of course they were! The next test was for Ranger to meet their nieces who absolutely love dogs. Ranger was in heaven with the girls! He adored their hugs and attention, and they, in turn, are in love with him. Ranger now has a home with a nice, fenced yard where he can chase balls and play with his new brother. And a place to romp with the girls when they come to visit. Mom & Dad have flexible work schedules, so Ranger and Finn are never alone for too long, and they enjoy napping during those times alone, sometimes known as recharging the batteries! Thank you to everyone, especially his foster mom, who helped him find his forever home for his golden years 💛 #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Whiskey found his way to AGA after his previous owner fell on hard times and was unable to keep him. With his high-energy and exuberant personality, AGA set to work to find this boy a great home, preferably with a built-in buddy. When his new family saw him on our website, they knew they could offer him a great life. The meetings went great! He met their dog Willow, who gave a big thumbs up, and we knew we had a great home for him. Whiskey is now River, and he has settled in perfectly. During the day, he and Willow enjoy wearing each other out in the yard, and in the evenings, everyone snuggles on the couch together.

ADOPTED! Our sweet, spunky Winter has officially found her forever home - and we could not have dreamed up a better match for this fun-loving girl!! At just 2 years old, Winter came to AGA looking for a family who could keep up with her big personality and playful spirit. Winter’s wonderful new dads are experienced dog owners who have been missing the special love of a Golden after losing their beloved golden last year. Their Beagle has been missing his brother too, so sweet Winter arrived at just the right time. Now she has a built-in canine companion and a family ready to give her all the love she deserves. With one dad retired and the other working from home, Winter will have plenty of company while spending her days exploring her new town. Her new family is even hopeful that this people-loving girl may one day get involved with pet therapy! 💛 Happy tails, Winter!

ADOPTED! At 6.5 years old, sweet Shimmer has been through more than most - which makes sharing that she has found her forever home even more special! Shimmer (now Lolly) came to AGA alongside her lifelong companions, Dalton and Finny, after their beloved owner passed away. Shortly after, the trio arrived at AGA ready to leave that chapter behind and find what she had been missing most - a family to love and to belong again. And that’s exactly what she found! Lolly’s amazing new mom and dad lost their own beloved fur baby last year and came to AGA hoping to open their hearts and home to a sweet dog in need. Lolly was just their perfect match! With her new dad working from home, this affectionate girl will have plenty of companionship and attention she has been waiting so patiently for. No more barn life for this sweet girl - Lolly’s days are now filled with soft beds, games of fetch, plenty of belly rubs, and most importantly, knowing she is loved and home for good. 💕 Happy tails, Lolly! We are so happy for this new chapter for you. #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Some stories are just meant to be. Clifford’s journey began when he was taken in by a kind friend after his original owner was forced to give him up because of a landlord’s restrictions. Hoping to find him the perfect home, his temporary caretaker did everything he could, but after two months, Clifford was still spending 12–15 hours a day alone — often crated or left on the back porch. Knowing Clifford deserved so much more, he reached out to us for help. When this sweet couple lost their beloved Golden Retriever in March, they weren’t just grieving a dog; they were missing their walking partner, their snuggle buddy, and the faithful foot warmer who had been part of their everyday life. At the same time, Clifford needed someone to give him the life he deserved. Then came the perfect match. The moment this couple met Clifford, they fell in love. They saw not just a handsome pup, but the chance to open their hearts again. And Clifford found exactly what he’d been waiting for — a family ready for long walks, endless cuddles, and a warm furry friend by their feet once again. His new dad works from home full-time, so the days of spending long hours alone are behind him. Instead, Clifford will have constant companionship, plenty of attention, opportunities for walks and playtime, and all the cozy naps by his favorite person’s feet. With a love for people and other dogs, we know he’s going to thrive in his new home. Sometimes the right dog finds the right family at exactly the right time. Happy Adoption, Clifford! Wishing you a lifetime of adventures, naps, belly rubs, and unconditional love. #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Gracie and Goose were surrendered to AGA by their owners because their children were allergic to the dogs and could no longer be around them. The owner was very sad to let go of them, but knew it was in everyone's best interest for the pair to come to AGA. They went into a foster home with family that has been long-time fosters with AGA. After fostering many dogs for AGA, along the way they decided to put in an application to adopt because they knew eventually they would need to have another golden (or two!) of their own. They started out fostering for AGA after losing a bonded pair of goldens they loved so deeply. So, once they brought Gracie and Goose into their home, they decided they were the dogs for them. Now the pair have a new mom and dad who love them. Dad works from home, so they will get lots of attention, have a fenced-in yard to play together in, and will also get walks together. Of course, they have each other, which is so important since they are so closely bonded. 🥰 Thank you to everyone who helped Gracie and Goose find their furever home! #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Dice Doodle came to AGA because his previous owners worked long hours and wanted a better life for him. Many people helped this lucky boy along his way to finding the perfect home. He is a young, active boy who needed some training. AGA gave him a start on his training, and his new family is continuing to work with him on his behavior. Previous adopters and their AGA doodle named Bob Marley were ready to add a new companion to their family. Dice is keeping his name and is slowly learning how to play with his new brother. His new mom works from home, and his dad works part-time from home. Dice now has 2.5 acres to explore, sleeps in the bedroom with his family, and has all the toys he could ever want. His parents lovingly refer to him as a "work in progress." Thanks to everyone who helped this young boy find his wonderful new home. #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Benji has found his FOREVER! Benji came to AGA when a breeder reached out to surrender a one-year-old, stud dog that made it clear he had no interest in that life. Benji was living in a barn with the other males and had been very sheltered from everyday sounds, movements, and life outside the barn. He was so scared at intake, paralyzed with fear, and wouldn’t walk. Soon after getting into his foster home with three other goldens, he quickly realized he was safe. He bonded with the pack immediately and followed all their moves. Somewhere along the way, his foster family realized they couldn’t imagine life without him and knew he needed them too. Benji, now named Goose, is the seventh AGA dog adopted by his forever family. Goose has continued to thrive and has started running, playing, chewing on bones, and enjoying wrestling with his brothers. Goose is pure joy, and it’s so great to see him so happy with his pack. Congratulations, Goose - you hit the jackpot! 💛 #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

UPDATE - SCOUT IS ADOPTION PENDING WHILE HE GOES THROUGH HIS HW+ TREATMENT 🩵 𝗦𝗖𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗜𝗦 𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗪𝗔𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚... 💛 We can’t understand why this sweet boy isn’t getting the attention he deserves. He may not look like a Golden Retriever, but 𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗴𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵. Scout has the kind of heart that makes everyone fall in love. His tail is almost always wagging, he loves being by your side, and he’ll happily lean in for pets or give the sweetest kisses. Scout is wonderful with other dogs (prefers another dog in his forever home), walks beautifully on a leash, and has the sweetest, easygoing personality.

ADOPTED! Lilly 2 recently found her forever home! Lilly was surrendered when her owner experienced some health issues. AGA welcomed her with open arms and started learning more about what she wanted from a new family. First, she wanted to be the Queen of the Household. No other pets, she asked politely. And she preferred a quiet household but did insist that her new home include someone who would play fetch with her, and then play fetch again after a nap. When her new mom saw Lilly on our website, she knew it was meant to be. After a couple of hard losses of her own, her new mom was looking for a companion to fill the empty spaces in her home and life. With no kids or other pets, she warmed up her throwing arm for fetch and headed for our Meet & Greet to meet Lilly and convince her that she'd offer the perfect home for this sweet girl. Lilly was on board, and everyone was excited to see this sweet girl find her forever home. They have settled in nicely together, and Lilly is the happiest girl ever, as is her new mom. There are a lot of walks and playing fetch in her new home, which is exactly what Lilly requested. Many thanks to her fosters and to the transport team who took on the task of taking Lilly on her journey home, on Father's Day weekend. You all rock! #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets

ADOPTED! Dobby, the cutest golden retriever/corgi mix, came into AGA as a stray. When no one claimed him, AGA was confident we could find this cutie the home he deserved. It didn’t take long for Dobby to steal everyone’s hearts. A longtime AGA volunteer had recently lost her AGA dog, Annie, and their dog Emma really needed a buddy to play with. All it took was one meeting for everyone to realize Dobby had found his forever family. Now, Dobby lives with his fur sister, Emma, and an 18-year-old cat that Dobby absolutely adores. They play and take naps together. Dobby also has a pool in his new backyard that he is sure to love once he recovers from his neuter surgery. He also has a fun family beach trip coming up. His family is so excited to see what he thinks of the ocean! We are so thrilled for sweet Dobby and know he is in the best home possible. Live your best life, Dobby!💛 #Adopted #GoldenLove #HappilyEverAfter #rescue #rescuedog #goldens #goldenretriever #goldenoftheday #golden #adoptdontshop #makeadogsday #love #truth #dog #dogs #adopt #adopted #happy #puppy #happydog #happiness #dogfamily #family #life #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dailygolden #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretrieverlove #goldens #pets
