My story

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

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

RUFUS ~1-2 years old. TBD if good with kids, dogs and cats. Fenced yard required.

GSRA adopts to residents of VA, NC, and SC only.

Hello world! Are you ready for an incredibly handsome and friendly dark haired boy to join your family? Look no further I’m your guy! My name is Rufus and I am a stunning bi-colored fellow. I am about a year and a half old, and weigh about 60 pounds.

I am a friendly and social guy who just wants to belong. I am very affectionate and love giving kisses. I really want to please my people. I’m kind of a quiet boy; I’m not a big barker. According to my foster mom, this is a good feature! I bark when needed, but I’m not a frivolous or excited Barker lol

I am housebroken and crate trained. I walk fairly well on a leash, but can use a little bit of fine-tuning as I do pull a little bit, but that’s just because it’s so exciting to go on a walk.

I do get along with other dogs very well! I could also be fine as a solo dog. I seem to have a bit of intense curiosity about cats so a kitty free home would probably be best.

My ideal home would be one with a nice backyard for me to run around in. I would love a family that will take me for a walk at least several times a week, and maybe take me down to the restaurants so that I could hang out with you and maybe get a few fries if you’re feeling benevolent. I also enjoy walking the trails in parks.

If you want a happy go companion come and meet me soon. Foster mom says I’m a real good catch and someone’s going to be very lucky to add me to their family.

Love, Rufus

Before you fill out the application:
1). We do not adopt to individuals living outside of North Carolina, South Carolina, or Virginia.

More about this rescue

Thank you for considering adopting a GSRA dog. We love that you are exploring rescuing a GSD. We firmly believe that the adoption of a dog is not one to be taken lightly. Because of this belief, our adoption process is what some would described as lengthy and can be emotional. If you are looking to take a dog home "tomorrow", unfortunately our organization is not for you.
