My story

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

Jackson is a 1yr 7-month-old, very handsome guy. He is a sweet, smart, playful guy that is very curious about how everything works around him. He loves our walks in the morning and evening along with car rides. When I first got Jackson, he checked out the yard and every part of it. Then he came in the house and like most German Shepard’s he checks out every room and what was behind every door before he spotted the dog toy drawer.  After searching through many toys, he found the one the likes best of all. It is a rubber chicken that squeaks.  He carried that chicken around for hours and will still carry it outside or inside to play. He loves playing ball any time any where its his favorite game.



He has learned that the flower beds are off limits, occasionally he will forget when he sees a bird or squirrel in one of the beds and he runs to chase them out. He is learning some basic commands sit, stay, kennel, but I think he already knew them and just hasn’t heard them in a while. Jackson is food and treat driven making it easy to train and very easy to correct. I’ve been told he was in a play yard with other dogs when he was in a shelter. He was at another foster home after leaving the shelter, but the bossy female did not like him moving in so now he is here waiting for that family that is looking for a great, loyal companion. Come meet Jackson he would love to be a part of your family. P.S. The chicken is included.

Go meet their pets

GHGSDR holds Meet and Greets @ several Petco stores in the Houston area each month, usually from 1pm to 4pm. Check our homepage for locations and dates.

On our homepage we list the names of the dogs that are expected to be at the event - check 1 or 2 days before the event.

We hope that you will come on out and meet some of our wonderful GSDs. Meet our volunteers and learn more about why GSDs are a wonderful breed!
See you there!

More about this rescue

GHGSDR volunteers are dedicated to saving as many German Shepherds in the Greater Houston Metro area as humanly possible - based on current resources of available foster homes, the rate at which we can find suitably matched adoptive homes, and of course, financial resources for veterinary care.

GHGSDR Shepherds mostly come from animal shelters where they are awaiting euthanasia. All of these Shepherd Dogs need loving, forever homes and families to call their own. We have several GSDs available for adoption and we regularly take in more Shepherds under our wings and into our Rescue Program, increasing the numbers of dogs available for adoption. Whenever we can, we also work with other dog rescue groups in Texas and nationwide to help ensure the safety and security of these wonderful animals.
