Our Organization

Chartered in 1991, the Golden Retriever Rescue Club of Charlotte (GRRCC) has saved over 2,000 Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers and Retriever mixes.

We are dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of unwanted, abused, neglected, abandoned or surrendered Golden Retrievers.

We provide professional and comprehensive veterinary care, including spay/neuter services and behavioral evaluations.

We are committed to helping our Golden Retrievers find their perfectly matched Forever Families.  Whether they are young or old, healthy or terminal, our goal is to ensure that they will give and receive a lifetime of love.

GRRCC is 501(c)(3) volunteer-staffed nonprofit organization relying solely on donations, which are tax deductible, to the extent allowed by law.  We also meet the requirements for corporate matching, employee giving and other volunteer grant programs.

Members, friends, and various fundraising event proceeds to allow us to provide a safe home and to give quality veterinary care and love to all GRRCC dogs.
