Sire von Siegbach is a striking looking 3 year old German Shepherd. At 90 pounds and exuberance plus, he is pretty incredible. He is housebroken and has had training. Sire does so well at the rescue; he loves the staff and volunteers. Even the smaller young women feel comfortable having him out and about exploring the neighborhood. Sire is very good with other dogs, so much so, that he even managed to charm our most alpha girls. What we see of Sire at the rescue is different from what was described to us once he is in a home. He needs a very in-charge owner he respects. Once he moves into a new home, he feels he can make all the decisions, just like a spoiled child. He needs an owner who will set boundaries for him. He is trained, so he will follow commands. Sire loves going for car rides and go hiking, where he can meet many new people, something he loves to do. He needs a lot of structure and boundaries inside his home. Could you be the special person Sire will adore? (no small dogs and cats)
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN Sire von Siegbach YOU MUST FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE: www.sheprescue.org
Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.

In order to adopt any dog from Westside German Shepherd Rescue, one must fill out an adoption application first. Upon receipt of your application, a Westside adoption counselor will contact you.We do aerial home checks and you may be asked to supply pictures as well as arranging for a home visit prior to adoption.
Adoption fees vary with each dog and typically range from $150 to $500. They are set, taking into account the dog's age, training level, temperament, if they’re newly arrived, medical condition(s) (if any) and other factors. Adoption fees are used not only to rescue and place the dog you are personally adopting, but to aid in the future rescue and rehabilitation of other deserving dogs. Adoption fees are necessary; without fees, our rescue efforts would quickly come to an end. The adoption fee includes spay/neuter, microchip, and up-to-date vaccinations.
