My personality

My story

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

NOTE: CALI IS WITH HER OWNER IN SACRAMENTO. GSRSV HAS NOT MET CALI. WE ARE LISTING HER ON THIS WEBSITE ALONG WITH OUR OWN DOGS TO GIVE HER MORE ADOPTION EXPOSURE. PLEASE SEE END OF THIS PROFILE FOR CONTACT INFO.

"Cali" is a 60-lb, 1.5-yo spayed female GSD mix who is loving, energetic and protective. She likes to cuddle! Cali is healthy and up-to-date on core vaccinations. 

Cali is friendly with everyone she meets, both inside the house and beyond. She is good with young children.

Cali is fine with other dogs as long as they are not aggressive towards her. She is gentle with small dogs.  

It is not known how Cali is with cats. 

Cali is housetrained and sleeps inside. Her people keep her outside when they are away from the house. 

Cali is a smart dog and walks well on a leash. She does pull eagerly towards other dogs who she sees on walks, but in a friendly manner. 

Cali enjoys going for car rides. She is active inside the vehicle at the beginning of the ride but settles down quickly. 

Cali is very playful. She enjoys playing fetch and chewing on rubber balls and bones. 

Cali’s person (Natalie) adopted her from a family member back in March 2023. The family member purchased her from a breeder but lives in a small apartment and did not feel it was the right place to have an eventually-large dog.

Though Cali has been a valued family member, Natalie’s daughter has developed severe allergies to her. So, Natalie is now seeking a new home for Cali.

Cali is located in Sacramento. Her adoption fee is $100. Please contact Natalie Rozenblum at 646-400-1841 or natalieroz415@gmail.com.

Donation
GSRSV became a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, charitable organization in March 2013. All donations to GSRSV are tax-deductible as allowed by law. Since February 2001, Brian Foran has funded GSRSV primarily on his own. Donations have played--and continue to play--a huge part in keeping GSRSV afloat, as adoption fees are a drop-in-the-bucket compared with the costs of running a large rescue program.
To make a monetary donation, please go to the donation page on GSRSV's Website: www.gsrsv.org/DonationsNeeded.htm. Thanks for your support!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

1. View my dogs available for adoption, either on this Website or on our own Website (www.gsrsv.org). I also list German Shepherds and German Shepherd mixes for other rescue groups and inviduals on my Website.

2. Contact Brian Foran at 916-655-3125 or bab43@msn.com to discuss the particular dog(s) that you're interested in.

3. Complete my adoption questionnaire. It is a downloadable Microsoft Word file on the page of my Website titled "How to Adopt a Dog through GSRSV." If possible, return the questionnaire via e-mail.

4. Go see the dog you're interested in--at my rescue facility, at the home of the dog's foster caretaker, or at the home of the dog's owner.

5. If you decide to adopt a dog, I will have you sign my adoption contract and pay the appropriate adoption fee, which varies between $300 to $100, depending on the age of the dog and whether it is a purebred GSD or not. This fee includes spaying or neutering, rabies and distemper/parvo vaccinations, heartworm check, and a 6-month supply of heartworm preventative. The adoption contract is on the same page of my Website as is the adoption questionnaire.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Because I am an independent rescuer caring for many dogs, I am presently unable to conduct regular adoption or "meet & greet" events.

I only arrange for people to meet the dogs that I have available for adoption after I have discussed the dog and have received an adoption questionnaire from them.

More about this rescue

German Shepherd Rescue of Sacramento Valley (GSRSV) is an organization dedicated to finding good homes for German Shepherd Dogs (GSDs) at risk of being placed in shelters, or who are already in shelters and possibly facing euthanasia. GSRSV is an independent rescue organization operated by one individual: Brian Foran. Though countless volunteers and benefactors have supported--and continue to support--GSRSV, I run and primarily fund the program, as I have since February 2001.
