My story

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

Bella



Adoption fee: $350



Physical appearance:  Bella is a 2-year-old female Doberman with cropped ears and a docked tail.  One of her ears does not stand.



Personality:  Bella is incredibly sweet and surprisingly calm and mellow for her age. She has her playful streaks, and loves to play with her daughter Donna in her foster home. She is good with other dogs, small children, and cats. Given some time to adjust, she should fit in to almost ant situation.



Why she's in rescue:  Bella was rescued as a breeding dog from an irresponsible breeder. She was rescued by a Good Samaritan along with her 2 puppies, but one of them passed away. She was surrendered over to rescue so she could find her new forever home.



Manners and Training: Bella is potty trained and crate trained, but she can have some anxiety in her crate, Crating her is important though because that anxiety manifests as destruction if she’s left out to her own devices. She needs work on her basic commands and leash manners, but she is eager to please and will learn quickly with someone who will spend the time.



Vetting: All our dogs are brought up to date on rabies, Bordetella, and combo, negative for intestinal parasites and heartworms, spayed and microchipped before adoption.

All of our pets are kept in foster comes across Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina. If you would like to meet one of our pets, we require an adoption application be submitted and a home check be completed so we can be respectful of our fosters time.

More about this rescue

Georgia Doberman Rescue is a non profit, volunteer organization, dedicated to rescuing and re-homing abandoned or homeless Doberman Pinschers from shelters or owners who have surrendered them. By working with volunteers, foster homes, veterinarians and trainers, we are able to place these dogs in loving temporary homes for assessment and rehabilitation, and then into carefully screened forever homes. We are an educational resource for the Doberman owner, and provide information on responsible pet ownership, good nutrition, positive behavioral training and the importance of spaying and neutering pets.
