In reply to Lita. Thank you. Yes, she lied (again) when she said she was going to shut down. Unfortunately WA has zero laws regarding any standard of care that these rescues must have, so it's difficult to shut them down. And they know it.

I came across this 2 year old article looking for something else. I read through all the comments. The last one, from someone that adopted there speaks volumes about the deplorable conditions this woman keeps the dogs in. So I think to myself after all this, she county had to see the conditions at this rescue and shut it down. It cannot possibly be in business. This was 2 years ago! How could the people that are supposed to make sure these types of facilities maintain a standard of care allow such a place to remain in business…
Yet she’s still up and running. With currently something like 32 dogs showing available for adoption from her “rescue”! This is so sad! ?

In reply to Karen.

Not every person that adopts from Furever Homes has a bad experience, but it is by accident and not by design. She’s running a retail rescue that is all about generating money by bringing dogs in and adopting them out ASAP with no vet care or behavior testing. People shouldn’t enable her by helping – it just allows her to put more money in her pocket.

In reply to Lael Isola. I agree. We've had nothing but a positive experience, getting our little rescue dog from Sharon. She works hard to give adequate care to her many dogs. How about someone helping her?

In reply to Shannon. I'm sorry you were another victim of Sharon Gold's dog flipping business. I'm glad she's doing well now.

We got are dog from Furever Homes in Winter 2015. The dog we saw a picture of actually two dog’s that I was told were still available were not there when we drove out to adopt. Sharon said she had been gone all week her husband mus of sold them. So we went out to the garage where there were 50 dogs or more some very sick & coughing. Trying to find a dog to adopt & take home. The digs people took out of the kennel pee’d & did business in her living room. She kept saying you can sit down but there was no way I would piece of furniture and the carpet had been “marked”. The house wreaked of urine. I could not believe she allowed her kids to live in such bad conditions. Behind a door off the entry that was closed & nobody acknowledged or opened were some more barking dogs and they were scratching at the door. We picked a small black dog that looked to be a Schnauzer mix. Sharon was very unorganized and although knew we were coming was still in her pajamas, hair & teeth unbridled her words not mine. She asked all of us there to wait whole she got dressed & brushed her teeth. Once she was back I asked again fof the paperwork for the dog we wanted. I don’t believe what we got really belongs to thd dog we got. She never provided proof that thd dog had received heartworm testing or other vaccines. She said she would email it to me actually said she did while I was right there with her but it never was received. I contacted her several more times for it. She told us if the dog became sick to call her she would supply medicine. The sweet young dog we took was so stinky we had to wrap her in a blanket for the trip home because the stench made us gag. We bathed her immediately once home. By the evening of our third day she was coughing so hard she was vomiting. I took her to our vet, she had kennel cough. He also went ahead and did the heartworm testing we never got proof of and other vaccines. We love our sweet girl and she is now healthy, happy and playful. Thankful for our dog but I feel Sharon had more dogs than she could properly care for.

Just the sheer fact that she is relocating so frequently, is a red enough flag. Would you trust someone you had no idea where they will be next? If so, I am sorry for you. This is not rescue, this is making money off pets. She holds no job, so how does she live? Off the money from these dogs and cats and yes, they do cost upwards of $350. Not always altered. Sharon, please stop now. It has now caused several deaths.

I think there’s a warning for all of us in this story. Sharon Gold is clearly a horrible person. But the foster parent made her own heartache worse by not vaccinating her puppy. Make sure you dogs are all vaccinated before you bring more dogs into your home.
