My story

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

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

Pick me! Pick me! I love to go for walks and I'll follow you everywhere. I am housetrained, know basic commands and I have great recall. I want to help you with your chores and will happily clean up any spills. I love to snuggle with my humans and their friends and get belly rubs. In the house I'm happy to curl up at your feet. I know what are my toys and which are my humans things, love to watch the neighbors from the window (and will protect the house by barking as needed) and am friendly with human adults and children. I enjoy playing with my canine foster sisters and will go into submissive pose during play. However, it may take me a few minutes to warm up to new people/dogs and I prefer sniffs to face-to-face introductions to new dogs. I like to be with my humans, so my foster mom said she won't let me go to a house where I am alone all day.

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.
