Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
IDGSR Welcomes PETRA into the safety of the rescue!!
THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT
**************
Happy Fall Y'all! My name is Petra and I'm a beautiful, sweet 2-4yr old German Shepherd. I'm located near Greeneville TN and available for transport.
Here are some fun facts about me & my ideal home!
1. I was rescued from a scary shelter by my wonderful foster mom. I have no idea why I was dumped there but I'm thankful to be with IDGSR waiting to find my forever home.
2. I have a lot of energy and love to play! I would love to have a safe fenced in backyard to run and play in.
3. I would absolutely love to go on adventures! Do you like walking, hiking, running, swimming, or chasing waterfalls? Me too! Let's go on cool trips together, especially this fall!
4. I’m very smart and would really love some obedience training. It’s fun and I get to use my brain. Will you paw-promise to train me to my fullest potential?
5. My ideal home is with someone who has prior German Shepherd experience, no first time GSD owners please. I would do fine with a confident male doggo, no females, I have an alpha personality. If you have kids, it's best they be 12yrs & up!
6. If you are looking for a fun, sweet, energetic, smart and loving companion - I'm your girl!
