Story

——Available——- Hello Everyone, My name is Nikki and I’m a 2 mo old German Shepherd/Great Pyr baby girl who is as sweet as can be. I am looking for my happily ever after. Investing your time and love into me will be so worth it!! I am an absolute sweetheart. I was rescued when our family decided that they didn’t want to place us in forever homes. We are now in a foster home awaiting our forever family. I am a sweet, loving and smart lil baby who just wants a loving family. I am happy, playful and an absolute joy to be around. I love playing and I am right at the perfect age for lots of training. I am good with children and other animals. Please add a lotta unconditional love, sloppy kisses, tail wags and endless happiness to your family and contact jbrescuerangers@yahoo.com for an adoption application and bring me home. I will come with the works (Spayed, up to date on everything, micro chipped, fecal, heart worm tested, monthly heartworm, flea and tick prevented, a free vet visit and medical insurance). What more could a new family ask for? Love and Kisses, Nikki

Betsy

German Shepherd Dog

Female, 7 yrs 3 mos

Riverwoods, IL

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Betsy is one of those quietly special dogs who can be easy to miss in the bustle of a shelter — but once she’s in a calm, predictable home, her true self shines. She’s a classic German Shepherd in many ways: observant, steady, and happiest when her world feels consistent. In the home, Betsy is fully housebroken, affectionate, and loves being near her people — she’ll rest by your feet, follow you from room to room, and lean in for reassurance — but she’s not a cuddler who wants to be scooped up or smothered. She shows love in her own thoughtful, gentle way. She can be sensitive to changes or overstimulating moments, and may vocalize a little when she’s unsure. But with routine, a quiet place to relax, and someone who understands the softer side of shepherds, she settles in beautifully and becomes a wonderful companion. She’s also very easy to walk — steady on leash and happy to take in the world at a comfortable pace. Betsy can be polite around other dogs, but she doesn’t really want to live with them. She’s much more comfortable as the only pet, where she can fully relax and not feel pressured to interact. If you’re an experienced GSD home looking for a dog who appreciates calm, structure, and staying close without needing constant cuddles — a perfect match for someone who enjoys quiet, steady company — Betsy may be the perfect fit
