GRR received Teddy’s eight-week postoperative update recently. For our followers who are just catching up with Teddy’s journey, this young boy came into care in March 2026 at the age 9 months as he required double hip surgery. Teddy was taken three days after his arrival to visit Dr Rob at VSoS (Veterinary Specialists of Sydney) where he had X-rays and was placed into Foster Care with Sarah, her family and Wally, the Irish Wolfhound. Teddy’s hip replacement surgery was performed by Dr Rob four weeks later and his recuperation and rehabilitation with his foster carer, Sarah, has been ongoing overseen by VSoS.

Recently GRR received Teddy’s eight-week post-operative update, every paragraph showing positive outcomes for Teddy. His foster carer, Sarah, has done and is doing the best job caring for Teddy. Caring for a Goldie post hip surgery is lengthy and requires both physical and emotional input, and this is just Teddy’s first hip surgery. His next hip surgery will be discussed at Teddy’s 16-week post-hip replacement surgery assessment.

Teddy would like to thank the many people who have donated towards his surgery, sent emails enquiring after Teddy’s life in foster and post-operative care and especially his foster family and Specialist VSoS Vet. Teddy will be one year old on the 19th June, and that birthday might never have happened except for a family who reached out to GRR for help, the expertise of Dr Rob at VSoS, the care given by Teddy’s foster carer, and all of you who care about Teddy.

Teddy is on his way to his new life because all of you care.

News from Teddy’s foster carer, Sarah, shows that his recovery is steaming ahead. Rehabilitation with Alicia from VSoS (Veterinary Specialists of Sydney) and sessions of Hydrotherapy as well as Sarah following up with exercises at home show Teddy making remarkable progress. Of course, Teddy has his foster brother, Wally, urging him on from the sidelines. Wally and Teddy have become very close and Wally, the Irish Wolfhound is Teddy’s biggest supporter.

All of Teddy’s rehabilitation is possible because of the GRR’s followers who have donated towards Teddy’s care and continue to wish him well.

Fur, Drool & Mud *** PAWMANITY’s Covers Save the Day (and the Seats!)

GRR would like to send an enormous thank‑you to PAWMANITY for their generous donation of two large cartons of car seat covers and cargo liners. Our foster carers have already been putting them through their paces with an impressive parade of Goldies, each one determined to shed, drool, shake and enthusiastically “express themselves” in the back seat.

The verdict so far: beautifully made, thoughtfully designed and tough enough to withstand a wet dog and a car full of fur. Rumours are circulating among the Goldies that these covers are comfier than the family couch, although the jury’s still out on whether it’s chew-proof.

For volunteers who open their homes, hearts and cars to dogs in need and who spend countless hours ferrying Goldies to safety, vet appointments and specialist consults, having quality protection like this is far more than a convenience; it’s a genuine, sanity‑saving gift that makes day‑to‑day fostering that little bit easier.

These covers have already saved countless interiors from muddy paws, surprise slobber, heroic moulting and the occasional “incident” that only a Golden Retriever can deliver with such confidence and pride. Thanks to Pawmanity, our volunteers can focus on the dogs, not the detailing bill. PAWMANITY, your generosity travels with every rescue, whether they're leaping in with wild abandon or being coaxed aboard with treats and gentle encouragement. No matter their enthusiasm, or lack thereof, for car rides or concern for your upholstery, GRR Foster Carers couldn’t be more grateful.

Teddy is spending quiet time recovering from his hip replacement surgery with his foster carer, a human foster carer and an Irish Wolfhound foster brother. They are keeping Teddy quiet and calm during this long process, and they are doing a good job because Teddy’s stitches have been removed and his rehabilitation has started.

Teddy is looking very cute in his goggles while having his laser therapy, and Sarah, his foster carer has learned how to do his daily exercises.

Rehabilitation after replacement hip surgery is a long process, but Teddy’s team is all over it, and Teddy looks like he is enjoying every moment.

Teddy sends his thanks to the many people who donated towards his surgical expenses and is doing his best to show his many supporters just how far he has improved.

Rubie turned 14 this week and is still visiting the local hospital once a month and the local school every fortnight.

Meet nine-month-old Teddy, who came into GRR’s care two weeks ago. Watching this gorgeous young boy running around the paddock, it was very clear there was something not right with his movement. His family had also noticed that their boy did not move well, and a visit to their vet confirmed their worst fears. Teddy had hip dysplasia, his right hip being in a worse condition than the left. Teddy’s family reached out to GRR, and Teddy was soon making his way to HQ.

A weekend of exploring HQ, and it was time to visit Veterinary Specialists of Sydney (VSoS), where x-rays confirmed the diagnosis given in Q’ld. Sarah, a Vet Nurse at VSoS, put her hand up to foster Teddy and take on the task of building up his muscle tone before surgery could take place. Teddy has spent the last couple of weeks swimming and exploring the family farm with his Irish Wolfhound foster brother, and Teddy’s Orthopaedic Surgeon was so happy with his progress that surgery was scheduled last Thursday.

Teddy came through the surgery really well, and he is currently recuperating and being spoilt by everyone at VSoS.

Many thanks to Teddy’s surgeon, Dr Rob, for his care and expertise and to Sarah, his foster carer, who has taken on the task of Teddy’s rehabilitation.

While VSoS are very generous in helping out GRR with the expenses incurred, hip surgery doesn’t come cheap and while one hip is done and dusted, there is another hip replacement surgery to come when Teddy has completed his rehabilitation. If you would like to help GRR care for Teddy and help towards the cost of his double hip replacement, you can donate by transferring to GRR’s Bank Account:

✨ Happy International Golden Retriever Day! ✨

Today we’re celebrating the goldens who brighten our homes, our routines, and pretty much every corner of our lives. The photos we’re sharing feature rescue goldens — dogs who’ve come from all kinds of backgrounds but still manage to bring smiles to the faces of the Goldie lovers who care for and adopt them.

A huge thank‑you to everyone who fosters, adopts, volunteers, transports, donates, or supports rescue work in any way. These second chances happen because of you.💛🐾
