About Molly

Molly is a medium-sized, golden mixed-breed retriever in San Mateo, CA. She’s an affectionate, playful girl who lights up around people she trusts. At 3.5 years old and spayed, Molly has outgrown the typical puppy chaos, but she still brings plenty of curiosity and energy to daily life. She’s social with other dogs and enjoys both outdoor activities and lounging close to those she loves. Molly can be a little shy with new faces and needs a bit of time to warm up, but once she knows someone, she turns into a true cuddle bug. She does best in a home with another dog of similar size and a backyard to roam. Molly is house trained (outside or on pee pads), crate trained overnight, and has good car and table manners. She is not a barker or a chewer when left alone, and she’s picked up basic commands quickly. While she gets along with children and cats, her play style can be a bit rough for very young kids or timid cats, so supervision is wise. Molly’s past had her fending for herself near the coast, but her gentle nature stayed intact. She came to rescue healthy and resilient, ready for a committed family. What are you waiting for?
