My story

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

If you could paint a picture of a truly dashing Shepherd guy, Tucson IS that guy! Holey moley he is stunning! Tucson is an adult shepherd mix who weighs about 75 lbs full grown. With a coat that is gorgeous, and black markings that are so unique that look as if his feet have been masterfully highlighted with charcoal, this guy is a lover for sure! Tucson is a big boy who is not shy or unsure and would be an amazing adventure partner! He does wonderfully with his lady doggo friends and may prefer to be the only large male doggo in the home. Tucson will be a fabulous candidate for all kinds of training as he is smart, people focused and aims to please. He will prove an A student and the bond between you will grow even deeper as a result of the investment in helping him be his best self (not like he isn't already tho for heaven's sake!) This picture pales in comparison. Shepherd lovers, come on out and meet the real deal ASAP!
**Volunteer Dog Walker feedback: " He loved going on an adventure with his new friends. He did great with the other dogs, traffic, and the hikers of all ages that were with us. He shared his water bowl with the other dogs and didn't show any aggression at all when it was time for treats. During breaks he was happy to give out kisses and get pets from anyone that would pet him".

A Weekend Host commented: "Is very food/treat motivated and seems to be a quick learner - I think he'd pick up on commands with some basic training." "Was good in the car ride." "Slept through the night and no accidents in the crate. Didnt want to get in his crate, but was super calm/relaxed while in crate. No whimpering or barking!"

Additional adoption info

All puppies and dogs at Saving Grace are crate trained, have been spayed/neutered, are up to date on their vaccines, are on heartworm preventative and have been microchipped. Their adoption fee is $350.00. Each has been carefully screened for disposition and temperament in order to provide your home with a safe companion that will enjoy life as your new family member.

If you are interested in meeting one of our dogs, please complete an Adoption Application at our website: savinggracenc.org

Sending an Application does not commit you to an adoption, it simply provides us with background information on potential homes. Please review our Adoption Contract before sending an Application to ensure that you will be able to provide the requirements stated in the contract. The Contract must be signed at the time of adoption.

Saving Grace is a small, non-profit 501-C3 organization operated by volunteers only. Most of our animals come from rural animal control shelters where lack of space and resources limit their time and adoption possibilities. Thank you for choosing Saving Grace! We look forward to helping you find your new companion and family member.

Contact us to make an appointment to meet the dogs! As we are a private residence, online applications must be completed and an adoption appointment must be scheduled prior to onsite visitation.

More about this rescue

Located in central North Carolina and officially established in 2004, Saving Grace has placed over 15,000 dogs into homes since its inception. These dogs were from rural animal control facilities with little resources and who would otherwise not had the opportunity to receive necessary veterinary care and a chance at adoption. While we have grown significantly over the years and have been successful growing our numbers we still see many great dogs miss the opportunity of adoption.

We have a large variety of dogs varying in breed, size, shape, age and needs and would love to work with you to find you a great dog companion while providing a dog in need with a loving home. Our dogs are chosen based on temperament and socialization. We get some of the most charming, unique mix breeds as well as some striking purebreds. Our dogs come from rural, underserved areas and while they may have little experience as an indoor family member, they have the temperament and personality that is sure to bring much love and appreciation to their new home. Most have started their crate training while in our program. Veterinary care including spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm test, vaccinations, monthly preventatives are provided prior to each adoption. If you would like more information about adopting one of our dogs, please email savinggrace@savinggracenc.org
