My story

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

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

This handsome fella is Bane. Bane is a fairly typical GSD in most ways. He is very smart, eager to please and very loyal. Bane bonds quickly to his people and is a typical Velcro shepherd. Bane does very well with the other 3 resident dogs and with all other dogs he has met since arriving in foster care. Bane walks nicely on a leash and loves going for walks (his motto and theme song is, "I will follow you, wherever you may go...").  He often goes with us to farmers markets, wineries, breweries, Home Depot, etc., and has always done very well everywhere we have taken him (including the vet's office).  Because Bane bonds hard to his people, he can have some anxiety when you leave him, although he does okay when we've left him out with the other dogs. Bane loves his people so much, he can develop some protectiveness of his people on his property. Thus, Bane would do best with an adopter that is experienced and a strong leader. He will need careful introductions with visitors including lots positive reinforcement to learn visitors are friendly and safe.  If you are an approved adopter with breed experience and interested in learning more about Bane, you can contact his foster mom at emily@hartman1.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.
