Tampa Bay German Shepherd Rescue

Dog rescue in Palm Harbor, FL

Mission Statement and Objective
To find loving forever homes for adoptable German Shepherd Dogs placed in shelters, strays and owner turn-ins. Provide needed medical care, training and rehabilitation to neglected, abused or sick German Shepherd Dogs until they are ready for adoption.

Who We Are
The TBGSR is an all volunteer pet rescue organization for German Shepherd Dogs. All of our pets are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. They are up-to-date on all vaccinations and heartworm negative. We are dedicated to helping our adoptable animals find good homes where they will be safe, well cared for and loved for the rest of their lives. Caring for these animals allows us to learn more about their personalities and helps us to place them in a home best suited for them.

Volunteers
Tampa Bay German Shepherd Rescue welcomes volunteers. If you are a fan of the GSD, we need your help. Please contact us & let us know how you'd like to assist us.

Foster Homes Needed
We are always in the need of foster homes to house dogs that are going through medical care while getting them ready for adoption. The more wonderful families willing to foster a dog, the more wonderful German Shepherds we can save.

There is no shelter but a network of foster homes. This means we have to turn down dogs and can not pull dogs from shelters because available space is at such a premium. All dogs are spayed/neutered, wormed, treated for fleas, vaccinated and on heartworm preventative.

If you have some time, a little patience and alot of love to give, we need your help. PLEASE EMAIL US for more info.
