About GRRR

Golden Retriever Rescue of the Rockies (GRRR), with a home base at Phoebe’s Place in Arvada, CO, is a mostly volunteer non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that helps rescue-rehab and place unwanted, abandoned or surrendered Golden Retrievers into loving forever homes.

GRRR was founded in 1996 by Laura Terroux and has experienced continued organizational growth while working toward the goal of caring for our breed. GRRR re-homes approximately 300 Golden Retrievers annually.

For more information on our organization, please visit our ColoradoGives.org profile.

GRRR can assist you if you currently own a Golden Retriever that you, for any reason, are unable to keep. After evaluation, surrendered Goldens will be taken in by GRRR and provided with the appropriate veterinary care consisting of vaccination updates, spaying or neutering and a general health exam. They then reside at Phoebe’s Place until they are matched with new families. Please click here to surrender a Golden.

GRRR can assist you if you are looking to add a special Golden to your family. GRRR volunteers will help you find the most suitable rescue Golden for your family based on your lifestyle needs and environment. Please click here for our adoption application.

All dogs are either at Phoebe’s Place or, in some rare situations, are placed in a foster home in metro Denver. All visits to meet prospective adoptees are by appointment only, after an application has been submitted and evaluated for a possible match.
