My story

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

Meet Georgia, a loving, resilient Shepherd ready for a home of her own!

Georgia is a beautiful 3- to 4-year-old German Shepherd who has been overlooked for too long—but she deserves so much more! Despite her limited vision due to pannus and dry eye, Georgia is full of life, love, and playfulness. She wears her signature Doggles™ when out in the sun, and her daily eye drops help keep her comfortable.

Georgia adores people and is happiest when she’s with her humans—whether it’s going for a walk, playing, or just soaking up affection. At the shelter, she was so scared, but with kindness and patience, she has blossomed into a fun, loving, and trusting companion.

Because her vision impairment makes her feel vulnerable, Georgia isn’t comfortable around other dogs and needs to be the only pet in the home. But with her loyal heart and joyful spirit, she’ll be more than enough to fill your home with love.

Georgia is waiting for someone to see past her challenges and recognize what an incredible dog she truly is. If you’re looking for a devoted, affectionate companion, Georgia is ready to be your best friend for life.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is a couple of steps.

We ask you to begin by filling out an adoption application to express your interest in any of our animals. Once we receive the application and looked it over, we will contact you to answer any questions you may have about the pet and set up a meet and greet with the 4 legged friend you are interested in.

At that point, if you are interested in moving forward with the adoption, we will conduct a home check to make sure everything's good. We will ask you to sign an adoption agreement and ask for a donation for the adoption process.

More about this rescue

The Jason Debus Heigl Foundation was founded by Nancy and Katherine Heigl to celebrate the memory of a wonderful son and brother. In 1986, Jason was killed in a car accident. He was only fifteen years old.

Throughout his brief lifetime Jason loved all animals, especially dogs and cats and monkeys. He lived his life extending compassion and kindness to all creatures great and small. This foundation is his legacy.

The mission of the JDHF is to eliminate the needless suffering inflicted on animals by human cruelty, indifference, and ignorance. Our primary focus is the greater Los Angeles area, for now.

In pursuit of our mission, the JDHF routinely funds:

Our internal rescue group, the Heigl Hounds of Hope.
Other qualified rescue groups, via Networking donations.
The Transport of LA shelter dogs to states with great demand.
Free Spay Neuter procedures for the pets of qualified caretakers.
Compassion Education programs.
And we thank you for your support.
