Watch hundreds of Golden Retrievers and their furry friends play as you help raise funds and awareness at Goldzilla, the RAGOM annual fundraising event to rescue, rehab, and rehome Goldens and Golden mixes so they can live the golden life.

Many paws are needed in a wide variety of times, booths and activities. Whatever area you volunteer in, you'll be covered with doggy love and smiling at the end of a fun-filled day.

About Retrieve a Golden of the Midwest

Location:

5800 Baker Road, Suite 120, Minnetonka, MN 55345, US

Mission Statement

RAGOM rescues, fosters, and finds forever homes for Golden Retrievers and Golden mixes in need.

Description

WHO WE ARE:

Retrieve a Golden of the Midwest (RAGOM) is a volunteer, non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Active operations are concentrated in Minnesota, Iowa, North and South Dakota and western Wisconsin. In cooperation with other rescues, RAGOM facilitates adoptions outside our operational territory if there are no adoptive families matching a particular rescued dog’s needs within our service area.

HOW WE CARE FOR DOGS:

Rescued dogs receive comprehensive medical care including a complete veterinary exam, updated vaccinations and a microchip, and each is spayed or neutered prior to adoption. While in RAGOM’s care, dogs live as part of a family in loving foster homes where they are fed, groomed, socialized, and begin to learn basic manners. Foster families provide ongoing temperament assessment for each dog to determine what qualities should be present in an ideal forever home, and then match the dog with an approved adoptive family.

We have been actively rescuing dogs for almost 35 years and, in that time, we've rescued and re-homed over 9,000 dogs.
