Certification

Although I understand that every rescued Golden Retriever has been inspected and its history reviewed, I nevertheless appreciate and agree that Golden Retriever Rescue and Adoption of Needy Dogs, Inc. (hereafter referred to as GRRAND) has not made and does not make any warranty in regard to it and that GRRAND can only give me such information as they have received regarding the Golden. If at any time I desire to relinquish custody of the dog, I will contact GRRAND, who will attempt to assist in placing the dog. I understand that members of GRRAND will be following up on the status of any Golden they have assisted in placing and I agree to cooperate fully in allowing GRRAND representatives to visit my adopted pet in its new home at any reasonable time. I understand that should it be determined by GRRAND that my rescued dog is not being humanely cared for in its new home, I will upon request return the dog to them. I further understand and agree that any donation that I give to GRRAND's rescue and adoption program is a donation towards its work in caring for this and other rescued Goldens. By submitting this form, I hereby authorize a GRRAND representative to verify all information provided on this form and give our veterinarian permission to disclose all medical information requested by a GRRAND representative.
