Meet Luke! He’s the last of one of EGRR’s adorable puppies and was born on March 18, 2024. His foster mom had to go back to work, so he’s enjoying playing and learning at our trainer’s home.

Luke is bright and inquisitive. He loves playing with the other dogs and, of course, gets along with all of them. He’s sweet, lovable and a typical Golden puppy. He’s about mostly house-trained, but may have an occasional accident.

He’s up-to-date on vaccines and has learned the skills that a well socialized puppy needs in order to grow into a well-adjusted, happy adult Golden.

EGRR has a few important requirements for adopting him:

You must own your own home.
Your yard must be completely fenced.
No small children in the home under the age of 5.
Please let us know if you meet the requirements and are interested in meeting Luke. Call our Hotline at: 954-748-3507

Ben and I are pleased to announce that our kennel license application was approved today by Animal Care and Control for dog daycare, board and train, and boarding. Many individuals in Palm Beach County offering these services (through Rover or a dog training or pet sitting sole proprietorship) are not in compliance with County regulations. We wanted to do the right thing -- an endeavor that took nearly two years to complete. So congratulations to West Palm Dog for Operational Permit S-4LPB-24-P1479668!
