My story

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

One year old Angel is a sweet, happy girl. Yet another puppy who lost its home. She likes other dogs and is friendly to people. However, Angel is a bit shy with strangers, she needs time to get to know you and then she will be comfortable. She walks easily on a leash, has lots of energy and is always ready to play! Looking for an exercise pal? Angel is your girl.

She is now in a GSROC foster home where she is being socialized with other people and has made friends with the resident dogs. Initially the small dog in her foster home let her know she doesn't like puppies and to bug off. While Angel respected this message, she couldn't believe that the small dog didn't want to become her friend. Angel slowly won the little dog over and has been accepted as a new friend!

Angel gets along well with other friendly dogs. She goes on pack walks with other friendly large dogs and has a blast. She is chock full of energy and likes to play, play play! Chasing a ball, playing ball and just having a blast are her favorite things to do. Angel will do best in a home experienced with shy dogs that is willing to work with her to overcome that. A home with another friendly dog would be very helpful.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The process begins when you complete an online or in-person Adoption Application. The information that you provide allows us to learn about your expectations and experience level so that we can help you choose the right canine companion for your family. Completing the Application does not obligate you to adopt a dog from us, nor does it ensure that your request will be approved. Please note that due to the logistical challenges and our limited resources, we do not adopt dogs outside of the Southern California area.

Once you submit your Application, an experienced Adoption Counselor will contact you to talk to you personally. From there, we will schedule a Home visit to help you to ensure that the environment is safe for a curious, intelligent, large-breed dog.

Because we are funded entirely by donations, at the time of your adoption, a tax-deductible donation (minimum $350 + $25.microchip fee) will be requested. These fees will go 100% to assist the dogs in need. There are no paid staff members.

Go meet their pets

At any given time, we have more than 75 purebred shepherds in our care. Ages range from the youngest puppies to distinguished senior dogs, with the most common ages being 2-3 years old. We typically have all colors of shepherds to choose from, from the traditional black and tan, to pure black shepherds and bi-colors, to all- white purebred shepherds. Volunteers work hard to match prospective adopters with the dogs that best meet their lifestyles, experience levels, and needs.

Please check out our web site at www.gsroc.org for the location of adoption events and fundraisers that we will be attending throughout Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Diego counties.
