My story

Please read ENTIRE post for info on this dog and our adoption process: This is Zeus, he was found as a stray by our groomer. She looked for owners for a few weeks but nobody claimed him. Soon after he came in to rescue. We continue looking for his owners with no luck. We do not know why he has not found his forever home. Everyone compliments him at adoptions but then says he is too big. He is such an easy dog. He is the sweetest, goofiest dog you could meet. He is a sweet silly boy. He loves to lay on his back with his feet in the air. He loves kids. He is between five and six years old. So in the home he can be with females only. He's good with kids. He's just looking for a home to spend the rest of his life with. Know if you think you are a good fit for this boy email and request an adoption application. My adoption fee of $200 includes neuter, vaccines, deworming, microchip and goody bag. All adoption fees go back into the rescue to help with large vet bills, large dog food bills and all the other needs required by the dogs while in rescue. *WE BEGIN WITH THE APPLICATION! Please only apply IF YOU ARE SERIOUS ABOUT ADOPTING!!! *All our dogs are in private foster homes. Once app is approved, a meet n greet will be scheduled at your home. (Except for the second Saturday of each month, which we do adoption events at Rancho Cucamonga Petsmart.) *If you rent, you MUST include a letter of approval from your landlord stating you can have a dog in your home Included with your application in order to be considered as an adopter. *We do not ship our dogs. If you are out of our 2 hour radius, you'll need to come to us. On occasion we have a volunteer who can meet. There will be a transport fee (depending on distance) to help the volunteer with gas. All of our volunteers supply their own gas and donate their time!! ~Tips are greatly appreciated for gas and time!!~ *We post in the ads what we know. If you have additional questions, PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS. *once several applications are received, this post will be removed! *Puppies require a lot of time, consistency, training, patience and love!* IF your app is approved, we will then move on to the next step, which is a video home check which will consist of VIDEOS of your HOUSE, your YARD and a brief INTRODUCTION TO EACH FAMILY MEMBER including your current dogs. **{Our adoption process is pretty quick! Once app is approved, we move on to the video home checks. Once those are approved, we schedule a meet n greet! If you are not prepared to get a dog within a few days of turning in your application (due to moving, going on vacation etc), please wait to apply when you are ready.}**

Why adoption is a great option

Zeus, a Rancho cucamonga 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 Rancho cucamonga, or seeking a German Shepherd Dog dog from a breeder in Rancho cucamonga.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Rancho cucamonga 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 Rancho cucamonga 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 Rancho cucamonga paves the way for another one to be saved.
