Biscuit and her friend Denali came from the same shelter in Southern California. The shelter said that they were not bonded but they definitely like to be with each other and are buddies.Biscuit is very shy. Biscuit is not going to choose you to adopt her, you will have to chose Biscuit. Because of past mistreatment, she takes a while to warm up to people and trust them. But - once she does trust you - she will be a wonderful companion and buddy. Just ask her foster family. They have seen an amazing transformation with her since she came to their home.Biscuit is house broken and crate trained. She doesn't mind being in a crate. She is relaxed and comfortable inside of one and will walk in herself. It is truly her safe place. Biscuit prefers to be equally inside and outside. If she is in the yard and has been out long enough, according to her, she will let you know she wants to be back inside. Other than her crate, her favorite place is curled up on the couch next to her foster mom.She prefers to play with Denali but will play with other dogs. She loves the company of the other dogs in the home. She is agile - she will need a secure yard and a fence that she can not leap over.Biscuit loves carrots. It's her favorite treat. She walks well on a leash but prefers that strange people and dogs keep their distance- she’s not reactive in any way, she just doesn’t choose to interact with anyone she doesn’t know. Biscuit has come a long way since she first arrived at Coastal. She knows her foster home is a safe place and now feels confident to go on walks without rushing to go back inside. She is going to be an amazing companion if you give her a little time, some patience, and a lot of love.

The minimum adoption donation for adults is $375 and the adoption donation for puppies is $500. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible. The adoption donation provides that all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis ( i.e., puppies who will need to be altered by 6 mos old). Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.September 26, 2024, 12:22 am

Make a donation to the Saving Gideon Fund!

In Gideon's honor, we would like to start a Saving Gideon Fund. This fund will be for seriously injured dogs who need immediate medical care. Often times the decision to save a life depends upon how much money is in our bank account. It's very sad, but unfortunately the truth! We would like to create this fund so that the next time we are asked to save a severely injured dog we can say YES!

Please help us to create this fund in Gideon's honor!
This fund will allow us to save more injured German Shepherds like him.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All prospective adoptive families must complete an on line application followed by a telephone interview and then receive a home visit before a German Shepherd is placed in their forever home.

Our adoption donation is $300 for Adults and $400 - $500 for Puppies. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is 100% tax deductible.

Prior to placement, all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are usually microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis. Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.

Donations are tax deductible and also help other dogs in need!

More about this rescue

Coastal German Shepherd Rescue of Southern California is a non-profit 501(c)3 public charity dedicated to finding loving homes for abandoned German Shepherds. Your tax deductible donations go to support these very deserving animals. Coastal was formed to serve communities in the counties of San Diego, Orange, Los Angeles and the Inland Empire.

Coastal is dedicated to providing new beginnings for homeless German Shepherds who have been abandoned, neglected, abused, relinquished by their owners or just left at local shelters to await an uncertain future.

We are committed to finding loving permanent homes for the Orphaned dogs in our care. Coastal is an all volunteer, no-kill, non profit organization.

Our mission is to educate the public about German Shepherds, their lifespan, personality, activity level, along with overall responsible dog ownership. We also raise awareness of over population of animals through education, training, spaying and neutering. We work very hard to match each dog with the adoptive families.
