My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Duke 7431 is a handsome dog looking for a loving forever home. He is eager to please and is toy motivated. Inside the house he is respectful and agile. He loves riding in a vehicle in his crate as well as playing around any source of water. He will let you know if he needs to go out out by standing by the door. He is potty trained and will often self load into his crate where he settles quickly. Duke is somewhat interested in deer, rabbits, and squirrels but he prefers to chase flies and fireflies. He will gradually add more muscle mass after losing it during a stint in an animal shelter. Duke shows some reactivity to other dogs so proper introductions are mandatory. He absolutely loves his person and he would thrive in a quiet home as an only dog for single person or couple who has ample time to care for him and provide a daily routine that includes sufficient daily physical exercise and mental stimulation. Duke has not been around cats however it would most likely be a bad idea. In his recent wellness exam Duke was given a good report and was very friendly with the vet and vet technician. Approved adopters can email Duke's foster at 2025adoption@gmail.com.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

An applicant first submits an application form with a non-refundable $10.00 (cash or check only) processing fee. VGSR reviews the application, then schedules an interview and home visit during which a number of questions are asked and the home is reviewed to be sure there is a contained/safe yard, and to meet the family involved. Once the application is approved, the applicant is asked to submit a $250.00 (cash or check ONLY) minimum adoption donation to VGSR to help defray the costs of getting the dog fully vetted and ready to be adopted, and the adoption is completed.

More about this rescue

We provide a valuable service by finding good homes for the German Shepherd Dogs in our care. In the seven plus years that we have been in existence, we have found homes for over 2,400 deserving dogs. We are currently enlisting active volunteers to help with the task of placing some really wonderful, but homeless, German Shepherd Dogs. Our goal is to place all GSDs that are accepted into our Rescue in loving homes in which the GSD and the family will thrive together.
