As Good As Gold

History

In May 2003, 13 dedicated golden retriever families gathered in a Wheaton, Illinois, living room to discuss the need for a golden retriever rescue in the Chicago area. Their twofold mission was the rescue, care and adoption of golden retrievers in need, and to educate the public about proper dog care and training.
