Derek's Story...

Derek came to us as a stray so we don’t know much about his past. We do know that he is a fun-loving boy who adores playing with his toys. He loves to play fetch but also likes to ‘hide’ his toys from time to time, placing them behind bushes or in small piles of rocks. He is a quirky guy who also likes affection. He will stand next to you and then lean in to have you rub and scratch him all over. This very sweet and handsome boy would like very much to find a forever home.

Derek is neutered, micro-chipped and up to date on all his vaccinations. He is living at our shelter Adoption Center and would love to meet you! Please stop by soon.

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Derek, a Gilbert German Shepherd Dog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a German Shepherd Dog for sale in Gilbert, or seeking a German Shepherd Dog dog from a breeder in Gilbert.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Gilbert already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Gilbert breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even German Shepherd Dog breeders who help with German Shepherd Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Gilbert paves the way for another one to be saved.
