DVGRR provides new beginnings for displaced Golden Retrievers. They helped me find my forever home where every day is the best.
This is a really special place and I know you'll want to learn more.
This is a battle I wage every day. Sometimes I'm pretty successful Take a look below, I'll tell you who the "petters" are.

This is Aunt Jerry. We call her AJ. She's one of the best petters. During her last visit to see me she got really good at working on her computer with one hand. It's a very important skill.

This is JoAnne. We walked by the cherry blossoms and then stopped for a photo opportunity. I like the cherry blossoms, but I thought it was important to have that special lawn ornament in my photo.

Here's me and AJ at the beach. I was wet, salty and sandy, but that didn't stop her from petting me. She likes me.

This is Sean. He's like my brother. He used to be the baby in the house, but that was a long time ago. Now, I'm the baby! I like being the baby. I get lots of attention and I like that alot.

Here I am with AJ in my backyard. When AJ comes to visit, I follow her around all the time 'cause you never know when a hand might reach down to pet you.

This is me and JoAnne again. She likes cats and so do I! But Mommy says I don't display respectful behavior around them, so I'm not allowed to play with them.

This is me and Mom. I have to check in with her all the time. When I first came to live with Mom & Dad, I tried to convince Mom she should check in with me instead. Mom told me, I could call her Alpha, thank you very much.

Here's AJ taking a break. She came out in the yard to sit for a bit. I came too cause I knew she wouldn't want to sit by herself. And probably she wanted to pet me.again.
You probably don't recognize him, but this is Sean again. He looks really different with the hair all over his face. I think it makes him look more furry, just like me! We do have the same color hair.

See, AJ really doesn't care when I'm wet and messy. She's happy for me to come lean up against her jeans so she can pet me.

Here's me and Mom in the backyard. I'm holding Teddy and Mom is thinking she'll take him. I'll tell you more about Teddy later.

And here's Rob! He fell asleep on the floor and I decided to curl up too. That way, I'd be in position for some petting when he woke up.

THIS IS MY DADDY! He pets me a lot and he invites me to sit with him! Here we are in Mom's office. Daddy likes to spoil me.
