My story

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

We’re thrilled to introduce you to our adorable litter of eight shepherd puppies! As we get to know each of their unique personalities, we’re on the lookout for loving foster homes, ideally in pairs. Four of them have been placed in foster homes. 



These precious pups came to the shelter with their mama, and thanks to the incredible shelter staff and their mother’s loving care, they’ve been well taken care of. Now that their previous owner relinquished them to the shelter, we have been entrusted to match them to forever shepherd experienced families. Their mama has weaned them and is available for adoption thorugh the shelter. The puppies will be with us for a little while longer until they're ready for their forever families.



To help us keep track of these cuties, we’re using their collar colors as names for now, and we’ll be assigning fun names that match their personalities as we get to know them better.



Stay tuned for updates on each pup's story! And don’t forget to check out our YouTube channel, where you can watch videos of these lovable little ones. 



They’re happy, healthy, and full of energy, just waiting for the perfect families to call their own!



Have you checked out our YouTube channel? We would greatly appreciate your support by subscribing, liking, and commenting on the videos we share of our adoptable shepherds in action. You can also follow us on Instagram,  Facebook, and our newest Threads account, where we post plenty of news and updates about our shepherds.



As a foster-based rescue, ShepHeroes is always in need of fosters. An overwhelming number of shepherds in our local shelters need our help for a fresh start. Would you share your home and part of your life to help shepherds find new families? You provide the love, and we'll provide everything else! Saying "yes" today truly saves a life. Complete this  https://www.shepheroes.org/foster-form, and we'll be in touch ASAP! We appreciate your consideration.

Additional adoption info

Since each GSD we rescue has been let down by their previous caregivers, we are committed to ensuring that their second chance is a forever one. Our adoption application allows us to find the best possible match for them and for you.

The decision to adopt a pet is an important one that we take seriously. Please take the time to read the questions and carefully complete the application. Please include full explanations with as much information as possible - this will help us with the review of your application

If renting, your landlord's consent is required to proceed with your application. Our landlord permission form is embedded in the application, and is required before your application can be processed.

As an all-volunteer rescue, we may not respond as quickly as we would like. We appreciate your patience while we work through the adoption process. Our goal is to respond to you within a week of your application.

More about this rescue

ShepHeroes is a foster based non-profit animal rescue organization with a deeply experienced team of volunteers focused on carefully placing German Shepherd Dogs into loving homes that match the dog's temperament, activity level, and needs.

Our dogs receive veterinary care and reside in volunteer foster homes while waiting for loving homes, and are altered, vaccinated and microchipped prior to adoption.

We focus our efforts on sound German Shepherd Dogs who are at risk due to abandonment, neglect, and abuse or significant change in circumstances. For the safety of our volunteers and adopters, we do not accept aggressive dogs into our program.

Our volunteers are heroes! Please join us with your time and talents to lend a hand to help our furry friends. Our needs range from virtual to hands-on tasks.

Are you interested in becoming a financial hero and supporting the rescue and welfare of abandoned shepherds? Norcal German Shepherd Rescue Inc. dba ShepHeroes is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization EIN #82-5263051, so your much-appreciated donations are tax-deductible and used solely to benefit the dogs in our care.
