Yankee Golden Retriever Rescue

🐾Don't forget tomorrow is our first Mix & Mingle event of 2026! 🐾

Meet some of our adorable pups who are looking for loving forever homes 💛 This is also a great opportunity to connect with our staff and volunteers, learn more about what we do at Yankee, and get involved in helping animals in need.

Whether you’re thinking about adopting, fostering, volunteering, or want to spend time with some amazing dogs, we’d love to see you there!

We can’t wait to meet you! 🐶✨

🐾💛 We’re asking for the help of your golden hearts to find homes for Challah and Brioche! 💛🐾

You may remember these handsome boys from our Bread Boys crew — and yes, they’re still with us, patiently waiting for their forever families.

Challah and Brioche are sweet, loving pups who are looking for homes with another confident dog to help show them the ropes. They can be adopted together or separately; what matters most is finding the right fit for each of them.

Be sure to keep an eye out for their upcoming Instagram takeover, where they’ll share more about their personalities and what they’re looking for in a forever home.

These boys have waited long enough. 🥹 They deserve families to call their own, cozy beds to curl up in, and people to love them for the rest of their lives.

Can you help us share their story and find the happy ending they’ve been waiting for? 🐶🍞💛 Don’t you think these babies deserve their furever home.

Play groups are more than just fun at YGRR — they’re an important part of our dog-friendly pups’ mental health and wellbeing 🐾💛

For dogs who enjoy the company of other dogs, play groups provide so much more than zoomies and wrestling matches. They give our pups social interaction, enrichment, confidence building, stress relief, and a chance to simply be dogs while they wait for their forever homes 🐶✨

Rescue life can be stressful, and these moments of play, connection, and normalcy make a huge difference for many of our dog-social residents ❤️

Play groups are only for dogs who are comfortable and appropriate around other dogs — not every pup enjoys playgroup time, and that’s okay too! We always prioritize what each individual dog needs. 🐾
