That's so sad that you have to give up your puppy. Dog rescue is one of my "pet" issues...no pun intended. Might want to start by networking with friends and family, so there is the least amount of trauma for the little fellow. If that fails, you can try one of the Golden Retriever rescue organizations in Florida:
Golden Retriever Rescue of Mid-Florida, Inc:

Southern Bayou Golden Retriever Rescue: (Pensacola):
Dee Knox, 2345 Frazier St, Pensacola, Fl 32514
(850) 478-5244 email:
goldenrule@pcola.gulf.net
Tallahassee Golden Retriever Rescue
Cindy & Stan Gramling, PO Box 266, Tallahassee, FL 32302 (904) 962-3492
If those fail, here is a list of all Florida rescue agencies:
