ADOPTED 6/11/2011
This biography is a real treat for me to write, the subject Mamie is by far one of the more special German Shepherds we have ever rescued. This dog came to us by way of our local high kill shelter. Upon observing her we realized that she had a depth of understanding of all things human above and beyond anything we had ever encountered. Mamie was able to read the situation immediately, respond appropriately and move on to the next demand however large or small. This lady is so sure of herself that she moves immediately to people, marginalizing all other dogs in the process.
Mamie is most happy lying at your feet without the company of less accomplished canines. She believes that she can fulfill all of your needs without the help of some less cultured dog. Though small for a German shepherd female, she makes up for her size in intuition, understanding and pure grit. Should you need her to stand up for you make no mistake that she will be there, reserved by nature she has no qualms about handling the situation and then returning to your feet as if nothing had occurred. Mamie’s desire in life is to have that family or person that she can devote herself completely. Though slightly storm phobic, she is perfectly at ease if you are around.
BLACK AND TAN (LONG HAIR), SPAYED, HEART WORM TREATED, FULLY VETTED, LEASH TRAINED, BASIC COMMANDS
Mamie is great with kids but prefers adults, will tolerate other dogs but prefers adults, has no desire to tolerate cats but will if she has too but prefers adults. In other words, Mamie is an old soul and doesn't want to be bothered by the minutia. This dog will make a great friend that will provide unequalled love to her person, a devotion that I have seen in few if any other dogs. Make no mistake a commitment to Mamie is a large one but I can assure that it will be one of the most pleasant experiences in your life. If it sounds like I am mesmerized by Mamie you are right, this girl is special and if that is what you are looking for, your search has ended.
OUR DOGS ARE MICRO-CHIPPED AND READY TO BE PART OF YOUR FAMILY TODAY!
About Our Rescue
These dogs deserve all of our attention, and in Rescue Dog Village, we are committed to our adopters and our dogs equally. We offer full disclosure and hope to make the best matches possible. Please know our adoption fees never cover our expenses. We rely on the generosity of our adopters and supporters to help us help the dogs.
Our rescue is ONLY in the business of offering FULL DISCLOSURE to adopters, and expects and hopes to engage your questions and concerns fully. We owe it to the dogs we rescue and all the wonderful families/adopters who might consider welcoming our charges into their hearts and home. Our dogs are waiting for that ideal forever home where they will be cherished as deserving family members. It's sad these second chances are even necessary for these dogs, but we are committed to them and will devote the time and energy to their rehoming, and not just MOVE them to save more dogs. We diligently and responsibly seek good matches as we don't want to re-home the dog again. These animals have already endured more than they should have, and through no fault of their own. It behooves us to be honest and forthright, and we appreciate the same in return from applicants. It's that winning combination of reciprocal trust and respect that allows for successful placements to be made. Happy adopters translate to happy dogs, and that's our goal!
Our rescue volunteers will be more than honored to be in touch with you directly and promptly, after receiving your application and conducting a mandatory a veterinarian check. If you have never owned a dog before, please submit your application regardless, and we will be in touch with you as soon as possible. TAKE NOTE YOU SHOULD CHECK YOUR SPAM AS SOME RESPONSES FROM US WIND UP THERE WE'VE DISCOVERED. Also, take care to contact your veterinarian to let them know a member of rescue will be inquiring about your pet history!
Thank you for respecting that we all donate our time to saving these animals, and understand we value your philanthropic and compassionate desire to help be part of the rescue team. That said, you'll understand why we are committed to the well-being of our charges and consider this veterinarian check mandatory. If you are a first-time dog owner, we will work with you every step of the way! ADVOCACY AND EDUCATION ARE AS MUCH A PART OF RESPONSIBLE RESCUE AS ADOPTION! And it takes a RESCUE VILLAGE to help the most dogs possible in a thorough manner to ensure success on all fronts, and then some! It is an awful feeling to fail a dog, and we can't continue rescue if we don't do everything we can to ensure good matches for the dogs and tender families who might adopt them. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING.
Although we are an extremely small rescue group, we understand and respect your family's eagerness to be in touch and learn as much as you can about the dogs you are considering adopting. Our very experienced and devoted trainer will be happy to share all aspects of OUR RESCUE DOGS to determine compatibility once you've submitted your application, and another of our volunteers will explain the whole process of our rescue and answer any questions you might have as well
