Story
Otis is an amazing dog, I've had him for 3 years and he's become my best friend. The only reason I have to give him up is because I am a broke college student and currently have a lot going on and I'm not able to give Otis the time he deserves. He loves to play and has a lot of energy. He's the perfect person to take with you on hikes and walks, and I've even taken him with me on a kayak. He gets protective when other dogs are around but if you slowly introduce him he makes friends pretty well.

Story
Peach is looking for her forever home. She is 6 months old (born in August). She is a Polish German Shepherd, Great Pyrenees mix and will be between 70-90 pounds when full grown… so not quite ideal for apartment life. She will shed a lot. Peach shows more traits of a Great Pyrenees. A bit stubborn, extremely sweet and affectionate but a bit more independent. She has the German Shepherd eagerness to learn and she is very food and treat motivated. She ADORES kids (including babies). Peach’s high-food motivation and eagerness requires her to have a slow feeder bowl, otherwise she eats way too fast, which has the potential to cause bloat. She would do best in a home with either one other dog or no other dogs as we believe she’d thrive with more than just a little attention. She loves to hike, swim, and sit perfectly on a leash when motivated with training treats. YES she’s absolutely perfect, laid back (especially for a puppy), and such a doll.

Story
IDGSR Welcomes AZALEA into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Hiya Friends! My name is Azalea and I'm a beautiful 1yr old female German Shepherd. I am located near Nashville TN and will be available for transport. Quick Facts Age: 1yr old Kids: teenage or adult home preferred Dogs: only dog or large male dog Cats: NO cats Training: needs full obedience training 1. I came to IDGSR with a litter of tiny babies, who have all been adopted. I was living in a really bad situation so I'm super thankful IDGSR rescued us. 2. I'm just a baby myself, only a little over 1yr old. Thankfully, I'll never have puppies again and I'm ready to learn what being a loved dog is all about. 3. Considering my rough start to life, I am a bit behind socially. I need a patient adopter to socialize and train me. I need to build some confidence and learn that the whole world isn't out to get me. 4. I'm a smart girl and catch on quickly. Once I decompress, training should be a breeze! Pro tip: have some cheese, hot dogs, or other tasty treats & I'll do just about anything! 5. I'd love to find my forever person, follow them around, go on adventures, and I DREAM of cuddling! 6. If you are looking for a beautiful, resilient, smart, & loyal new companion - I'm your girl! **SERIOUS APPLICANTS ONLY!
