My story

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

JEWEL - GENTLE AND SWEET

Age: 5 Years
Sex: Female
Size: Large
Good With Dogs: Yes
Good With Cats: Unknown
Good With Children: Yes

Jewel spent her life as a breeding dog. As is sadly the case, she no longer served a purpose to the breeder and was discarded. Thanks to our good friends at Char-Wills GSD Rescue, Jewel was saved and is now safely with Sedona Shepherd. At first shy and cautious, Jewel has come out of her shell and her personality is starting to shine.

Jewel loves to meet new dogs and already has made friends with Jett and Buddy, as well as some young pups. She loves when we rub her ears and she is curious about her surroundings. Although she was never walked on a leash, Jewel quickly learned how to walk by our volunteers side during her adventures around the neighborhood.

If you are a gentle spirit and enjoy caring for animals, then Jewel will flourish in your home. Jewel would benefit from the companionship of another dog. We are requiring an adopter have a fenced in yard to adopt Jewel.

If you would like to meet foster Jewel, please reach out to us at contact@sedonashepherd.com or fill out an online adoption application.

Sedona Shepherd Sanctuary's mission is to rescue adult and senior German Shepherd and Shepherd mixes and find them loving homes.  All of our dogs are fully vetted and up to date on all their shots

Our adoption area includes New Jersey, Delaware Valley, Manhattan, Southern New York and Eastern Pennsylvania.  We may adopt to Connecticut depending on circumstances.  Please visit our website at www.sedonashepherd.com.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption fee is:

Ages under 3 years old: $450

Ages 3 to 8: $250

Ages 8 and older $150 (or waived)

For dogs older than 10 or with medical issues we will waive the adoption fee. This is done on a case by case situation.

We do not adopt puppies. If you are interested in adopting a dog under 4 years old there are a number of respectable German Shepherd Rescues in the New Jersey metropolitan area that can accommodate you, including Shepherd's Hope Rescue and Garden State German Shepherd Rescue.

More about this rescue

Sedona Shepherd Sanctuary specializes in helping adult and senior German Shepherds and mixes find their forever home. Sadly, many older dogs are dumped in shelters and most often are the first to be euthanized to create room for younger, supposedly more adoptable dogs.

Our mission is to find loving homes who realize the special nature, love and enjoyment these dogs can bring to a household.

We work with owners who because of circumstances beyond their control need to find a home for their dog. We also work with many shelters and rescue organizations in the Northeast.
