Iggy von Iggingen is a tall and handsome 12-month-old German Shepherd. This gentle boy can be a bit shy but warms quickly, especially if treats are on board. Iggy will lean against you to win some petting and nab more goodies. Settling in at a medium-energy level, he's likely already housetrained. For his walks, he starts happily with a wagging tail. Eventually he settles nicely and likes to stay close to his person. Iggy is a sniffer dog and likes to explore the smells of the big, wide world during his outdoor adventures. Happy and ready to socialize in his playgroups, Iggy does great with other dogs and is sharing space at the rescue with some of his pup friends. He especially enjoys playing with Toni, if you're looking for a matching pair! (No cats please.)
Rescued from the Desert Hot Springs 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.
