Imminent Danger German Shepherd Rescue - Greeneville, TN

Dog rescue in Greeneville, TN

Imminent Danger German Shepherd Rescue started in 2011 rescuing German Shepherds and High Content Mixes from Imminent Danger where they were sitting on Death Row in High Kill Animal Control Facilities in TN, NC, SC, KY, VA, GA & AL. Over 1000 Dog's lives have been spared and we've never worked so hard in our lives to save these wonderful kids. Our process from saving these kids includes 30 years of experience in working breed dogs. We conduct Safer Tests with all dogs to determine the abilities of the dogs so that we can match the right dog to the right family. We do not shove our dogs out the door. We do multiple videos of the dogs as well to our potential adopters. We disclose all positive and negative behavior traits so our adopters can work on any training the dog may need. IDGSR starts the rehabilitation and training with these wonderful kids and our adopters are part of the team of folks who help to ensure these kids will never suffer another day of hardship in their lives again. IDGSR will not take Aggressive Dogs into the Rescue.
If you have ever loved a German Shepherd then you will know where our hearts are to save these dogs from a certain death. It is our goal to save more but we need wonderful qualified families who want to save a life and welcome a new family member. We continue the work with our adopters even after adoption including helping with training, and giving advice and counsel. IDGSR's staff look forward to hearing from you. Help us to find your new devoted and loyal best friend.
