Donations Needed
Several new Goldens have arrived at AGA!
We are making a plea for some help this month to help support the many new rescue Goldens that have arrived at our doorstep.

We anticipated that this may happen when life began turning back to normal post-COVID and we are so proud to be a source people turn to when they can no longer care for their Golden. This selfless act is one of the most difficult decisions a family can make for their pups. We are seeing many owner turn-ins and are receiving lots of calls from local shelters with Goldens in need of a new home. Several have heartworm, medical issues, and training needs which we quickly move to rectify and as a result, we have seen our medical/training costs skyrocket.

We cannot do the work we do without the help from every one of you within our AGA family. Even the smallest amount will help us to provide the care needed for these pups while they look for their forever home.

Will you please consider donating today?
Orphan of the Month
Meet Bumblebee
Let me tell you about myself. I am a 2-year-old and I am a boy. I have lived in a home but never really learned how to be a grown-up dog. Anyone can tell you there is still a lot of “puppy thinking” in a 2-year-old golden and we need training. Because I didn’t have lessons on the rules I needed to know, I just kind of grew up doing whatever I felt like doing. I made some mistakes in the house and can’t walk on a leash without pulling. I have lots of energy and would like to learn how to play games and how to exercise. So here I am! From a home to a shelter, to AGA and I am excited to hear people will help me learn to be the best grown-up dog ever!

Football Szn is HERE!

If you’re a huge sports fan and an avid dog lover, then there’s probably nothing that sounds more fun than having the two together. Watching your favorite sports team play with your canine companion by your side can feel like living the dream. But, watching sports with your pooch isn’t as simple as it may sounds. We are sending some tips on what you should and shouldn’t be doing when watching the game with your best friend!

*Szn = Season (we know this due to having a 14yo son in our home!)
