As ARIA and her siblings ( and Mom) found themselves in a rural and always over crowded shelter , never a good place for any dog, but especially for a sold black Mom ( black dogs are often overlooked in shelters ) and young puppies ( disease can spread quickly in shelters ).
As we were searching for fosters , we found out another GSD rescue was also, MAGSR.org , so we teamed up and saved Mom and family. Aria and her sister Anko and her brother Abu came to ASR.....and are settling in well in their foster homes.
They are adorable happy social puppies. Mom is some kind of GSD mix :-) , but since she weighs 41 lbs and her pups are around 7 lbs at 8 weeks, we expect their maximum size will be 45-50 lbs., what we call " Pocket Shepherds " .
All puppies are cute but please keep in mind they are a 10-15 year commitment, the expense associated with puppies including health care, training and of course, a few chewed up shoes while they are teething :-)
When applying to adopt one of our puppies, please remember :
Up to the age of 8 months old, puppies cannot be left alone for a standard 8-9 work day. Arrangements will have to be in place for 4 hour intervals until the pups are at least 8 months old.
Having someone with them every 4 hours until they are older greatly facilitates the housebreaking process as well as assists with the general socialization of your pup !
If you are not yet approved to adopt from All Shepherd Rescue, please fill out our online application at www.allshepherdrescue.com. Our adoption fee is $350.00
