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.

Mission and Vision

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.

Adoption Policy

Golden Retrievers are known to be gentle, family-oriented, and very full of energy! They are also prone to some of the health problems inherent in pure-bred dogs. Of course, every golden has their own unique personality and needs. The process for adopting one of our Golden Retriever starts with completing an application and submitting a non-refundable $25 application fee. See application for specifics. Adoption fees go to help offset the medical costs we incur for our dogs. All dogs are given a full set of vaccines, treated for infections and allergies if needed and adult dogs are spayed and neutered prior to adoption. Serious medical problems are also treated. Fees also are used for behavioral training and boarding facilities.Our application asks questions regarding your history with dogs, your lifestyle, and what you are looking for in a Golden Retriever. Once your payment and application have been received, it will be reviewed, and references will be contacted. You will be called for a phone interview and a home visit by one of our volunteers. ALL family members must be present for the home visit.The volunteer will be looking for information on where the dog will spend the day and evening, and whether you have adequate space as well as an understanding of the needs of a Golden. We require that all of our dogs be inside dogs. Goldens are very unhappy if left outside unattended, even if they are with another dog. After your home check, one of our volunteers will work with you to match your family to the perfect dog.We do adopt to out-of-state residents, however, in-state applicants receive priority. If you live outside Georgia and an AGA volunteer is not in your area to conduct a home visit, we will request photos and/or video of your home. You must come to Atlanta and meet the dog(s) you are interested in adopting and if you want to adopt, you will have to drive your new golden home with you. We do not allow shipping or transport of our dogs.The decision to place one of our Goldens into an adoptive home is not one that we take lightly. We reserve the right to deny any application and may not disclose the reason for denial. We do not operate on a first-come first-served basis, as it is our goal to find the absolute best fit for both our dog and the adoptive family.If you are 70 years +, we have a special program you may be interested in ‚ The AGA Seniors for Seniors Program. If you adopt one of our orphans who is 9 years +, we will waive the adoption fee. It's a win-win for you and a senior golden retriever. If you need convincing, just go to the Orphans section on this website and click on the Why Adopt a Senior heart.Adopting a dog is a decision that should not be taken lightly. Your dog will be a part of your family for a long time, and can provide you with years of enjoyment and wonderful memories. Our goal is to ensure that all our dogs find permanent loving homes and each applicant finds the perfect dog.

"Adopt A Golden Atlanta is a very hands on rescue. They are invested in both their rescues and the fosters and volunteers who work with the pups and each other to help our rescues find their forever home. Their follow thru after the adoption is fantastic - and the doors are always open for adopters to reach out for any help or resources that they feel they may need, hereby ensuring that the placement of the pup is comfortable for all parties concerned. The success of AGA is reflected in the number of returning adopters - to add to their furry family or to, when comfortable, to bring another furry baby into their fold after the loss of another. The extended AGA community speaks volumes for the quality and integrity of the organization!!"

"Adopt A Golden Atlanta has given me a purpose to my life. My family and I began volunteering with this wonderful rescue many years ago. We weren't familiar to rescuing and had always gotten a golden from a backyard breeder. However, we discovered AGA online as we were looking to add another golden to our family. We already had 3 pups at home, but we wanted to find a female golden. We saw this sweet golden girl who was up for adoption with AGA. She was rescued from a puppy mill in Missouri with 3 other golden's. Her sweet face made us fall in love even before we met her. Once we attended their adoption day, it was love at first sight. She was curled up under her fosters chair. We took her outside for a short walk and then when we left she wanted to go with us! AGA has a very organized process to be able to adopt from them. They say it's harder to adopt from them than to adopt a human child. This was the beginning of my volunteering with AGA. AGA has rescued golden retrievers from Turkey and China as well as the Southeast. We have Bo (Rambo) from Turkey and Fish who was an owner surrender right now. However, we adopted Millie our first rescue, Andie a golden doodle and Rooney another puppy mill pup. Andie was a therapy dog and Fish is currently a therapy dog as well. Adopt A Golden Atlanta has so many amazing volunteers who work tirelessly with animal shelters, owner surrenders and breeders who retire their Goldens. Because of this amazing organization I can bring my Fish, English Cream golden to Northside Hospital to visit patients and bring a little joy to their lives."

"I started volunteering with Adopt a Golden Atlanta 5 years ago after seeing a story on the news about them rescuing homeless dogs in Turkey that were living on the streets starving to death and being hit by cars. I was so touched I had to get involved, so I started fostering and working on the applications team. One foster I had, Abe, stands out as the most special of all, and the one that made me feel like this rescue we had was really making a difference in the lives of dogs. He was 9 years old and was rescued along with 16 other dogs from a life as a breeder dog kept in an outdoor kennel on concrete in Missouri exposed to brutal weather. The dogs were skinny and terrified of everything. Abe had never been inside a house, barked at the TV and his reflection in the window and slept on the hard floor instead of a dog bed because that’s all he knew. Over the three months I had him, he gained weight and blossomed into the sweet, goofy, loving Golden Retriever he was meant to be. He ended up being adopted with a 9 year old female from the same group to one of our volunteers and spent 3 happy years on a horse farm. This was only one of thousands of rescues AGA has made possible, and their commitment to improving the lives of homeless dogs is second to none!"
