My story

URGENT FOSTER/ADOPTER NEEDED: Everyone, this is Axel, our 7 month old Shepherd mix. Isn't he adorable! He is a street survivor in Tijuana where he was sadly mistreated and abused. Thankfully he is now safe and sound here in Southern California. He is amazing with all humans, big and small! He loves to play. He’s still working on walks. Axel’s just an amazing puppy. Would you be interested in opening your home and your heart to this boy? Please contact us if you are! Adoption process needs to be 100% approved. We offer a foster to adopt trial, too!

Why adoption is a great option

Axel, a Downey 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 Downey, or seeking a German Shepherd Dog dog from a breeder in Downey.

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