Story
Adoption fee: $300 DISCLSIMER: Sam is a true working Doberman. He has natural protection instincts that the average family cannot handle. He will only be adopted to a home that intends to seriously train and work him, and will absolutely not be homed with any children under the age of 15. Physical appearance: Sam is an all-natural, black and tan, male Doberman that is about 4 years old. He is average size for a male Doberman with a weight of 71lbs. Personality: Sam is a wonderful dog with a sweet and playful personality with his family.  He is BFFs with his foster sister and they hang out together and play all the time. While his natural ears and tail make him absolutely adorable looking, he is also an intense watch dog and protector. He is very protective of his foster mom which has led to an incident where he nipped a guest.  He is not a dog you can expect to be social. if you have people in and out of your house all the time, he is not the dog for you. He is a true Doberman and is not what you commonly find in a rescue dog.  He is fearless, intense, and alert but he is not aggressive.  He needs an experienced owner that knows how to train and lead him and will not leave him to his own devices. He does well with both men and women once he gets to know them, but initially is extra wary of men. he needs a proper introduction and for his owner to show him that they are okay. He will not be adopted to a home with any male dogs, but females are fine. He will also not be adopted to a home with small children. We will require all kids to be over 15 years old. Why he’s in rescue: Sam has an unusual rescue story. A friend of the rescue was working in Qatar where Dobermans are illegal.  Despite them being illegal, many of the wealthier residents import them anyways. They usually import them from Serbia and get them based on the idea of a Doberman, leaving them as decorations or using them as guard dogs as opposed to pets.  Sam's owner no longer wanted him and he was abandoned at a kennel. Our friend contacted us asking if we would take him if she brought him back with her. If we didn't, he'd likely be euthanized or abandoned in the desert unfortunately common for unwanted dogs). We couldn't say no. Manners and training: Sam is crate trained, potty trained, and does pretty well on a leash.  He is a fast learner and would excel at any sort of training or sport you wanted to do with him, especially obedience or schutzhund/bite work.  If you've wanted a dog you can do sports with, this is the dog for you. He is not suitable as a couch potato, and we will require his adopter to be registered for training classes before he can be adopted. He is currently working with a trainer in Lawrenceville that specializes in working dogs and absolutely adores him. We have had an evaluation done by her that we are happy to share with prospective adopters. if possible, we would love to see him continue his training with her.  Vetting: All our dogs are brought up to date on rabies, Bordetella, and combo, negative for intestinal parasites and heartworms, neutered and microchipped before adoption.   ##1810600##

Story
Meet Zeus: The Big, Loveable Goofball Who Just Needs the Right Kingdom Hey there, I'm Zeus! I'm a 3-year-old male Doberman with cropped ears, a docked tail, and 110 pounds of pure, unapologetic sweetness. I am goofy, affectionate, and will be your best friend approximately 30 seconds after meeting you. I have some specific needs, so read on — if you're the right match, I am SO worth it. Personality: I am a lover, full stop. I will find you, lean on you, and make it very clear that you are my favorite person. I'm an indoor dog through and through — AC, couch, your company. That said, if you're outside with me or there's a squirrel to chase, I'm in. Fair warning: I won't jump a fence, but I will dig, so eyes on me outside please. My Story: I came into rescue due to same-sex aggression and littermate syndrome with my brother — we simply couldn't live together safely, and my family made the loving call to let us both have better lives. In my most recent adoptive home, I had two separate incidents with children that resulted in bites. We are being fully transparent because the right placement depends on it. I cannot be in a home with children — not living there, not visiting, not occasionally. This is absolute. GDR is also having me evaluated by a professional behaviorist before placement, and results will be shared with all approved applicants. Other Animals: No male dogs, ever. I do well with females. No cats or small animals, my prey drive is too high. Manners & Training: I'm a fast learner who loves to train. I know sit, wait, and stay. I have excellent house manners — no begging, no counter surfing, fully potty trained and crate trained. I walk best on a head halter. A home that enjoys training will get the best out of me. Oh, and if anyone gets in a swimming pool, I will bark at them until they get out. I've decided pools are dangerous and I stand by that. Zeus Needs: An adult-only home with no children, both residing, or visiting. No male dogs. A physically capable, experienced handler comfortable with structure and consistency. Supervised yard time. Health & Vetting: Neutered, microchipped, up to date on rabies, Bordetella, and combo vaccines. Heartworm negative and negative for intestinal parasites. Behaviorist evaluation in progress. Why You'll Love Me: I want one thing: to be near my people. In the right adult home, I am a warm, loyal, trainable, and an absolute joy. If that's you, I have a whole lot of love to give. Ready to be my favorite person? Love, Zeus ##2040343##

Story
Meet Jussie: The Happy-Go-Lucky Girl Who Just Wants to Play (And Eat) Hey there, I'm Jussie! I'm a 9-year-old black and tan Doberman with natural ears, a docked tail, and an endless supply of enthusiasm for life. I am a happy, bouncy, playful girl who greets every single day like it's the best day ever — because honestly? It might be. Oh, and I come with my ride-or-die best girl, Kokie. We're a bonded pair and we go together. Trust me, you want us both. Personality: I am pure joy in a Doberman-shaped package. I will come up to you and gently nibble your hand just to say please pet me, I like you so much. It's my signature move and everyone loves it. I play hard — my foster brother Obi (also a Doberman) and I have a full wrestling match every single morning without fail, while Kokie watches us like the refined lady she is. I have energy, I have opinions, and I have an absolutely unhinged relationship with food. Speaking of food: mealtime is a spiritual experience for me. I do a full spin-around dance while my bowl is being prepared. It cannot be stopped. It will not be stopped. I also eat extremely fast, so my foster family has me using a slow feeder bowl — it's helped a lot, and my new home will want to continue that. My Story: Kokie and I lost our owner, the person who had us both for years, and it changed everything. We came into rescue together because that's the only way we go — together. Kokie is my anchor. I am her entertainment. We have been side by side for over six years and we are not starting over without each other. The good news? We are genuinely easy to love as a pair. Kokie is calm and cuddly. I am bouncy and playful. We balance each other out perfectly. Kokie & Jussie: Kokie is my best friend and honestly my whole heart. She's the calm to my chaos. While I'm out there wrestling and spinning and living my best life, she's watching from the couch like a proud, slightly exhausted mom. I can't get on the couch myself — I just put my front paws up so my people can reach me for pets — but Kokie holds down the cuddle fort for both of us. We are a team. Manners & Training: I know sit — it sometimes takes a little coaxing with a treat, but I'll get there. I stop immediately when told "no" and stand right at attention, which my foster family loves. I'm still working on leash manners — I tug quite a bit — so a patient, experienced handler will get the best out of me. I'm a little more independent than Kokie, but I'm still very people-oriented and I love being around my humans. Other Animals: I live with other dogs in foster and we get along great — including the daily Doberman wrestling matches, which I consider essential. Cats are an unknown quantity for both me and Kokie, so slow introductions would be the smart move. Special Considerations: Must be adopted with Kokie — bonded pair, non-negotiable Food motivated — use it for training, use a slow feeder bowl at meals Leash work still in progress — experienced handler preferred Active and playful — needs a home that can match some energy More independent personality but still loving and social Cat compatibility unknown Health & Vetting: I'm spayed, microchipped, and up to date on rabies, distemper, and Bordetella. Heartworm negative and negative for intestinal parasites. Why You'll Love Me: I am the dog who makes your house feel alive. I will make you laugh every single day — the hand nibbles, the food dance, the morning wrestling matches. I am happy, healthy, and so ready to find my forever home. And when you take me, you get Kokie too — the sweetest, calmest, most loving old soul you'll ever meet. We are, without question, the best two-for-one deal in rescue right now. Ready to be our people? Love, Jussie ##2774380##

Story
Meet Freya: The Queen Who Rules on Her Own Terms Hey there, I'm Freya! I'm a 4-year-old black and tan Doberman with natural ears, a lean and elegant 57 pounds, and the kind of regal, no-nonsense energy that belongs in a home that truly gets me. I'm spayed, fully vetted, and ready for my next chapter — but I'll be honest, I come with a little complexity, and I need someone experienced enough to appreciate that. Personality: I am what you might call a particular girl. I like my routine, I like my space respected, and I like things done right. I've been described as "prissy" — and honestly? Fair. I prefer a clean bed, I don't like messes, and I have a very specific sense of how my world should be ordered. I'm not the dog who's going to run up and love-bomb strangers. I'm the dog who earns your trust slowly, and once you have mine, you have it. I do well on leash, I love hanging out in the yard, and I've genuinely settled into a calm, happy routine in my current home. I just need the right place to keep that going. My Story: I came from a breeder and lived with my previous family for years before a big move disrupted my world. I don't handle change well — most anxious dogs don't — and the stress of the move led to a snapping incident that my owner felt she couldn't responsibly manage anymore. She made a hard call because she loves me, not because I'm a bad dog. I'm not a bad dog. I'm a Doberman with anxiety who hit a wall during one of the hardest transitions a dog can face. With the right structure and a stable environment, I do really well. Manners & Training: I've been trained with an e-collar and a prong collar, both used thoughtfully — light corrections to get my attention, not punishment. I know how to listen when I trust my handler. I've also been trained to retreat to the bedroom when I'm feeling overwhelmed, and I actually use that skill. That's huge. I know my own limits, and I know how to deescalate — I just need a human who reinforces that structure. I wear a muzzle due to a past nipping incident, and I've learned to accept it. I'm also crate trained and love my crate covered with a blanket — it's my cave and I love it. People & The Door: I am protective, and I will tell you about it. If someone comes to the door, I'm going to bark and rush — that's just me. What I won't do is be politely managed by a stranger walking up and petting me uninvited. My owner crates me or puts me in the bedroom when new people visit, and that's the protocol that works. Do not let people approach me without a proper, controlled introduction. I have snapped before, and my new family needs to take that seriously and manage accordingly. Other Animals: I'm dog selective — I don't start fights, but I don't love dogs that get in my face. No full-on dog fights in my history, but I need slow, controlled intros and a compatible match. I completely ignore dogs that mind their own business. I've always lived around cats and I'm genuinely good with them — I even bonded with a kitten once. The key is slow introductions for indoor cats. Outdoor/stray cats in my yard? I will chase them. No outdoor cats, please. Kids & Home Life: I do best with older kids — 13 and up, and only kids who are calm and respectful. No roughhousing around me, no climbing on me, no chaotic energy. I need a quieter home. Small animals are not safe around me — I have a strong prey drive and I will hunt them. Health & Vetting: I'm spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, and negative for intestinal parasites. At 57 pounds, I'm right in my ideal weight range. Physically, I'm in great shape. Why You'll Love Me: I am loyal, smart, and deeply bonded to the people who earn my trust. I like my life tidy and my people consistent. I know my limits, I have real coping skills, and with the right handler I can be a genuinely wonderful companion. I'm not the dog for everyone — I know that. But for the right experienced home that wants a complex, beautiful, real Doberman? I am absolutely worth it. Ready to meet me the right way? Love, Freya ##2773476##

Story
Meet Rosey: The Sweetheart Who's Ready to Run — Right Into Your Heart Hey there, I'm Rosey! I'm a 3-year-old black and tan Doberman with natural ears, a docked tail, and 65 pounds of pure enthusiasm. I am affectionate, playful, and deeply loyal — and after a bit of a rocky road finding my right fit, I am soready for the home I was always meant to have. Personality: I am a high-energy, full-heart kind of girl. If you're active, outdoorsy, and looking for a dog who will genuinely match your energy and then curl up next to you at the end of the day — hi, that's me. I love to run, I love to play, and I love my people fiercely. Like, fiercely. Dobermans are famously velcro dogs and I am a gold-star example of that. I want to be where you are, doing what you're doing, always. That's not a flaw, it's a feature. It does mean I need a home where someone is actually there to be with me though. My Story: I've been in rescue twice now, and both times it came down to the same thing: I didn't get what I needed. My first owner got me without really understanding what a Doberman requires and I spent most of my time crated in an apartment. He made the right call surrendering me because I genuinely deserved better. My second home loved me — my adopter was a great match in every way — but his job ended up pulling him away for long hours consistently, and I struggled without that companionship and care. This wasn't a behavior failure. It was a lifestyle mismatch. I need someone who is present, and now we know that clearly. Kids & People: I am a sweetheart with humans across the board — adults, kids, all of it. I've been great with the small children in both my foster home and my previous home. People are my favorite thing and I show up for them every time. Other Dogs: I am dog reactive and need to be the only dog in the home. This isn't negotiable, it's just who I am, and a home without other dogs means I can be my very best self. Manners & Training: I know sit and lay down, I'm crate trained, potty trained, and I'm a great car rider. Where I need work is on the leash — I'm pushy and reactive around other dogs, so leash manners are a work in progress. I need an adopter who is physically capable of handling a strong, energetic dog if needed, and ideally someone with Doberman or working breed experience. A consistent, structured handler will get the absolute best out of me. Health & Vetting: I'm spayed, microchipped, and up to date on rabies, Bordetella, and combo vaccines. Heartworm negative and negative for intestinal parasites. Healthy girl, ready to go! Why You'll Love Me: I am pure love in a 65-pound package. I want to run with you, cuddle with you, and be your constant companion. I've waited a little longer than most to find my right home — but I haven't given up, and I don't think you'll be able to either once you meet me. Ready to be my person — for real this time? Love, Rosey ##1221805##

Story
Adoption fee: $250 Meet Kali: The Girl Who Just Keeps Waiting — and Loving Anyway Hey there. I'm Kali. I'm 10 years old, black and tan, with natural ears, a docked tail, and 90 pounds of pure, unshakeable love. I have one eye that's a little smaller than the other — a condition called uveitis that took my sight in that eye — and I need daily eye drops to stay comfortable. I also have a scar on top of my head from a surgery that saved my life. And somewhere along the way, someone shot me. The buckshot is still in there. You can see it on my x-rays. I still love people with everything I have. Every single one of them. My Story, and I won't sugarcoat it: I have been with Georgia Doberman Rescue for almost four years. I have come back three times. Not once because of anything I did. Twice, life fell apart around the people who loved me — circumstances outside anyone's control, certainly outside mine. I waited. I always wait. Most recently, I was diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma. GDR didn't hesitate. They got me into surgery at UGA, where I now have an entire fan club of people who have been rooting for me. The surgical team believes they got good margins. I looked a little like Frankenstein for a while and honestly? I rocked it. I hopefully have a few good years ahead of me. I just need somewhere to spend them. An adopter was lined up. They wanted me, senior years and medical needs and all. They never wavered through my diagnosis or my surgery. And then, at the end, they backed out. I'm still here. I'm still waiting. I'm still wagging. Personality: I am a velcro dog. I want to be next to you, leaning into you, making sure you know I love you. I'm an A-class snuggler and a wonderful companion. I have energy — real energy — and I love to run and play and chase tennis balls. I will play as long as you let me. I also have opinions, and I am not afraid to voice them. If I don't get my way, I will bark and whine to register my formal complaint. It's dramatic. It's a lot. You cannot live in an apartment or give in every time, or I will absolutely run the household. I need someone who loves me enough to hold the line. Manners & Training: I know sit. I will wait patiently for my dinner until you release me — I have manners when I use them. I'm crate trained, though I will absolutely try to convince you I have never seen a crate before in my life. Don't believe me. My leash manners need some work, and a consistent handler will make a big difference there. Other Animals & Kids: I am great with kids and a wonderful family dog. I get along with other dogs with slow, careful introductions. I have lived with cats and rabbits. I am genuinely one of the most socially flexible dogs we have. Medical Needs: Daily eye drops for uveitis — non-negotiable for her comfort Follow-up care post-surgery as directed by UGA Senior dog — 10 years old, but with energy and life still in her Buckshot present in her body from a previous incident — monitored, not currently a health concern Health & Vetting: Spayed, microchipped, up to date on rabies, Bordetella, and combo vaccines. Heartworm negative and negative for intestinal parasites. Why You Should Choose Kali: Most dogs who go through what she's been through come out harder. Kali came out softer. She has been shot, surrendered, diagnosed with cancer, and let down more times than any dog should ever have to be, and she still wants to be right next to you, leaning in, loving you as hard as she can. She is not a project. She is not a risk. She is a 10-year-old girl with a few good years ahead of her, a heart the size of Georgia, and a UGA surgical team in her corner. She has waited long enough. If you're ready to be the home that actually sticks — the one she's been waiting for — we would love to talk to you. Love, Kali ##127561##
