My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

6/22/24. This beautiful young lady is Sabrina.  Sabrina is estimated to be between one and a half to two years old. Sabrina was picked up as a stray and landed in a rural North Carolina shelter.  It was evident that she had been nursing puppies as she still had some secretion of milk from her mammary glands, but her pups were never found.

She is house trained, crate trained, chipped, up to date on all her shots, has just been spayed, walks good on a leash, rides well in a car and gets along great with our two resident GSDs Ruger and Prince.  Sabrina and our other foster Major are best buds; Major and Sabrina will play until their tongues are hanging out, take a good nap then start all over again.   Sabrina is still very much a puppy and will need lots of good chew toys, so get your training tools ready to help this little girl get on board with the house rules.  Sabrina is the sweetest girl, very smart and eager to please, super affectionate, loves to get hugs and loves to give hugs, is always up for snuggles, kisses and belly rubs; she will definitely steal your heart in short order!!   

Sabrina loves her toys and will carry them with her as she travels around the house. Sabrina will pick her person and become their shadow.  She is protective of her people and home and will bark when she sees a stranger approach, or when that vacuum cleaner gets too close to her people or toys.

Sabrina is a little cautious of strangers’ especially men; having patience is of the utmost importance until Sabrina feels more secure in her new environment.   Sabrina will need a fenced yard, an adopter who has considerable GSD experience, little alone time and she will do well with older considerate children.

Approved adopters can contact her foster at bhriddick@yahoo.com

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

An applicant first submits an application form with a non-refundable $10.00 (cash or check only) processing fee. VGSR reviews the application, then schedules an interview and home visit during which a number of questions are asked and the home is reviewed to be sure there is a contained/safe yard, and to meet the family involved. Once the application is approved, the applicant is asked to submit a $250.00 (cash or check ONLY) minimum adoption donation to VGSR to help defray the costs of getting the dog fully vetted and ready to be adopted, and the adoption is completed.
