A "Golden Gateway" for Pet Adoption Featuring John Plummer: Episode 150

July 15, 2024

In this episode, we spotlight Delaware Valley Golden Retriever Rescue (DVGRR), a 501(c)(3) non-profit that has rescued and rehomed over 6,700 dogs in its 30-year history. Based in Reinholds, PA, DVGRR operates a 6.5-acre kennel facility and is one of just four kennel-based Golden Retriever rescues in the US. DVGRR rescues 275-300 dogs annually, ranking consistently in the top three among 95 Golden Retriever rescues nationwide. They take in dogs from owner surrenders and retiring breeders, providing crucial medical and behavioral care before placing them up for adoption.

Our guest, John, began as a volunteer in 1995 and now serves as Executive Director, overseeing DVGRR's mission to provide new beginnings for displaced dogs. Join us as we explore DVGRR's impactful journey and the dedicated efforts behind their lifesaving work.
