FORMS - ADOPTION/SURRENDER /FOSTER

IMPORTANT INFO BELOW!
PLEASE READ BEFORE SUBMITTING AN ADOPTION APPLICATION!!

Thank your for your interest in adopting a G.R.E.A.T. Golden. G.R.E.A.T. Rescue of NE Florida, Inc. is an ALL VOLUNTEER organization, and those who volunteer on its behalf must juggle personal lives, families, jobs, homes, etc., in order to provide quality time to our beloved rescued Goldens and their future families.

When submitting an application, please:

* * * Allow 10-14 days for your application to be evaluated and processed. * * *
You will be contacted when our review is complete

* * * Provide ALL information, including ALL phone and fax numbers * * *

* * * Do NOT bombard us with emails and phone calls. * * *
This takes away from our time devoted to rescuing dogs and approving applicants.

* * * Do consider a dog other than your first choice. * * *
Most families ask for young females, therefore, if you refuse to widen your options, your wait will be longer. Considering a male or senior female will bring a wonderful Golden into your heart and home sooner and provide just as much joy, devotion and love.

After you have received an approval from GREAT, you will be placed on a waiting list. Our goal is to place the right Golden with the right family; not all GREAT Goldens are appropriate for everyone and based upon the input of our Rescue Veterinarians, Foster Families and Rescue Board Members, the final placement decision belongs to GREAT.

Your patience and understanding will help make your GREAT Adoption a joyous and lifelong commitment. Thank you.
