We rescue dogs of all ages. Not every dog that is available for adoption will be featured on our website. Sometimes, we can match dogs to prospective adopters very quickly, so you won't see those dogs on the site. If you are interested in adopting a dog, be sure to visit the adoption section of our website and complete an Adoption Application to be considered.

Poppy is a fun-loving, high-energy sweetheart who’s always ready for adventure! She absolutely loves to run, play, and soak up all the attention she can get. Whether she's romping around the yard or cuddling up after a long day of play, Poppy brings joy wherever she goes.

🐾 Meet Denali 🐾

Breed: Golden Retriever
Age: ~7 years old (Born ~April 28, 2018)
Gender: Male
Size: Large (currently ~99 lbs, working toward a healthy weight)
Coat: Golden, classic fluff
Location: Indoor-only | Fence Required: Yes, any type

Denali is 1000% Golden Retriever, loyal, goofy, and velcroed to your leg from the moment you meet him. He’s friendly with everyone, dogs, cats, people, and kids, and has the kind of lovable personality that makes you laugh every day.

He was surrendered when his previous owner could no longer care for him. When he arrived, Denali was morbidly obese and struggling with severe allergic dermatitis. Now, thanks to proper care, medication, and a fresh-cooked diet, he's 30+ lbs lighter, feeling fantastic, and showing off his silly, spunky side again!

Denali’s Must-Haves:

  • A cooked diet due to food/environmental allergies
     
  • Benadryl twice daily
     
  • Thyroid medication twice daily
     
  • Hypoallergenic baths every other week
     
  • A comfy indoor space, he’s a homebody at heart
     
  • A family that appreciates his stubborn, funny, "golden" ways
     

Denali knows basic commands, but like any self-respecting golden, he prefers to pretend he didn’t hear you. He’ll walk with you, but only when he feels like it. And yes, he’s that dog at the dog park who lies down and refuses to leave. 😂

He’d be happy with another dog, but is also completely content as your one-and-only. What matters most to Denali is being close to his people; that’s when he shines the brightest.


❤️ Denali at a Glance:

  • House trained ✅ 
  • Friendly with new people ✅ 
  • Good with dogs & cats ✅
  • Indoor only ✅ 
  • Has basic training ✅ 
  • Fence required ✅ 
  • Low activity (but high affection!) ✅
     

Denali is a lovable goofball who will fill your home with joy, loyalty, and laughter. He’s not just a dog, he’s a daily dose of golden-hearted happiness.
