Renata von Rhens is a delightful, 1–2year-old Shepherd/Husky mix (best guess). Renata is a beautiful, mid-size girl who is up for anything. She can be little shy at first but quickly becomes a love bug and leans in for pets and rubs all over. If you are looking to add a dog to your pack, come meet Renata - being around other dogs seems to bring out her best; she can be her playful, ready-for-fun self, or she can adjust nicely to a calmer dog. She’s super smart, curious, eager to learn more, and up for any adventure. Renata is worth a meet and greet!
Rescued from the Kern county animal shelter.

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.
