Sahara von Sauzin is a delightful, 8–9-month-old Shepherd/Husky mix (best guess). Anyone who has known such a mix knows they are some of the most fun, loyal and intelligent pups out there. Sahara is very friendly and sweet, affectionate and attentive, she'll melt in your arms and shower you with kisses. She seems to be housebroken and is super attentive to training when treats are involved. She’s up for any kind of adventure but would probably do best in a home where there is an abundance of activities that could include walks and hikes -- and even bike rides – this girl is agile and light on her feet, and loves to run! This could be balanced with some time spent on training so Sahara can be the best she can be. She loves both people and dogs (but not cats), and might be a great addition for another playful dog – she’s super fun and silly and loves to play! Come meet Sahara!
Rescued from the Kern county animal shelter.

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.
