My story

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

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

Cooper is a velcro pup who will help you to remember to walk more and drink more water and is happy to retrieve balls or toys. He loves to be with his people and travels well in the car. He walks very well on a leash and is well-behaved with people and usually with other dogs (treats work to redirect him when he gets excited seeing other dogs). He is crate trained, but has a lot of energy so not a dog that should be crated for long periods. He is great in the house and is not crated at his fosters house. He loves his stuffed toys and playing with his foster sisters, and he knows what are his toys and what are people toys (no kids in his foster home, so he may try to play with kids stuffed toys). He is friendly with children and gets along well with his foster sisters. He has done fine at rescue events. Give him a treat and he is fine for a few hours, but he is not a dog that can be left alone all day while you are at work.

If interested, please contact his foster at triebi@hotmail.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.

More about this rescue

We provide a valuable service by finding good homes for the German Shepherd Dogs in our care. In the seven plus years that we have been in existence, we have found homes for over 2,400 deserving dogs. We are currently enlisting active volunteers to help with the task of placing some really wonderful, but homeless, German Shepherd Dogs. Our goal is to place all GSDs that are accepted into our Rescue in loving homes in which the GSD and the family will thrive together.
