Dash von Dahnen is a striking looking 3 year old black sable German Shepherd. This handsome boy is more than just a looker. He’s an active boy with an engaging and sweet demeanor. It always seems like Dash is smiling. He soaks up attention and can’t get enough pets and attention. On his walks, he stays close. When you stop, he leans into you. Dash is social with other dogs. He enjoys going on group walks at the rescue, and comes in playgroups happy and comfortable. He enjoys greeting and mingling with the other dogs, but checks in often to hear what a good boy he is being. Dash came to the rescue from a home and were told that he is housebroken. He is now seeking a family that can match his own enthusiasm for life. Be it hikes in the mornings or belly rubs from the couch, Dash can’t wait to be part of your home. So to meet him, fill out the application below.
Owner surrender - his family had "no time" for him.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN Dash von Dahnen YOU MUST FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE: www.sheprescue.org
Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.

In order to adopt any dog from Westside German Shepherd Rescue, one must fill out an adoption application first. Upon receipt of your application, a Westside adoption counselor will contact you.We do aerial home checks and you may be asked to supply pictures as well as arranging for a home visit prior to adoption.
Adoption fees vary with each dog and typically range from $150 to $500. They are set, taking into account the dog's age, training level, temperament, if they’re newly arrived, medical condition(s) (if any) and other factors. Adoption fees are used not only to rescue and place the dog you are personally adopting, but to aid in the future rescue and rehabilitation of other deserving dogs. Adoption fees are necessary; without fees, our rescue efforts would quickly come to an end. The adoption fee includes spay/neuter, microchip, and up-to-date vaccinations.
