German Shepherd Dog puppies and dogs in Gretna, Nebraska

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.German Shepherd dogs, as well as the other herding breeds that we have in rescue, are highly active, energetic, working breeds. They require considerable vetting, exercise, socialization, training, leadership and mental stimuli in order to be well-adjusted, well-balanced, and well-mannered dogs. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings in order to work on his/her leash skills, manners, and social skills. These breeds make great additions to active families who will pamper them, but who will also work with them, as they are smart dogs who need leadership, structure, plenty of activity and mental stimulation. If you are new to German Shepherds (and other herding breeds), please research the breed to make sure this is the dog for you. We ask that you consider the time and financial commitment that your German Shepherd (or other herding breed) dog will require before applying for one. Please review the section on our website (www.heartlandgsrescue.org) 'Is a HUGS Dog Right for You?' for additional information. Armani (also known as Sissy Pants, Puppy, Poppy, Gremlin, Bad Bunny, and SBP) got her name because HUGS took her on knowing of her mega-E diagnosis, and much like her designer namesake, we knew she was going to be expensive!  Armani was surrendered to rescue at only 11 weeks old - the backyard breeder tried to bait and switch the buyers with Armani over the puppy they had already chosen, and when that didn't work, gave Armani to them for free. The buyers immediately realized something was wrong, and Armani was diagnosed with Mega-E two days after they got her. When they contacted the breeder and were told Armani would be put down if they returned her, thankfully they found us. Even by Shepherd standards, Armani is smart. Her first Bailey chair was built the same day she was rescued, and by her third meal in it, she had started jumping on her chair when she saw her foster mama making her food! The first few days with Armani, she was fairly low energy and restrained, likely from lack of nutrition. She began perking up quickly, and is definitely the life of the party now, acting every bit a 'normal' puppy! Shoes and socks were not safe around Puppy for months, but she has recently discovered how tasty kitchen towels can be! Armani is very much a typical puppy - full of energy, always ready to play (even after a 4 mile hike!!), and wildly curious about the world around her.  Armani has excelled at training, knowing sit, stay, how to get into her chair at mealtime, and great leash manners for her age. She's been well socialized thanks to her foster brother and two foster sisters, and has learned how to read and respect other dog personalities, everything from grumpy old man dog to crazy zoomie wrestling sister dogs. Regarding her Mega-E diagnosis: while Armani has congenital, generalized Mega-E, meaning she's not a surgical candidate, her condition is well managed without medication and only needing 15 minutes of upright time after meals. She has earned the nickname 'Diva' from her backup fosters who watch her when Mom travels because her food and feeding preferences change with no rhyme or reason. Sometimes she eats her entire meal from her bowl, sometimes she demands to be spoon or handfed (extra fun when feeding her special recipe mush!) Similarly, she normally gets a 'mush' recipe, but at times will refuse, wanting canned salmon, raw meatballs, or straight dry kibble. She does not tolerate water well, so she gets gelatinized chicken broth cubes. Armani is very much a pack dog - she first left her mom with her littermate, and has since grown up with a pack of three GSDs. She's far more timid when she goes somewhere alone, but will gain confidence if adopted as an only dog to someone who puts in the training time. She is incredibly bonded to her humans - if foster mom is working from home, she will happily spend the whole day perched on the arm of the couch next to mom's desk dropping toys on mom and breathing in mom's ear. Like any of our dogs, this sweet, gorgeous girl would make a great addition to an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that this breed needs.  Because of that, Armani ideal owner will have prior GSD or other herding breed experience.  Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember  that you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills, and manners.   Armani's adoption fee is $350, all of which goes back into offsetting our high-cost vetting expenses and rescuing more dogs.  We are a 100% volunteer-run rescue group and rely on adoption fees and donations to continue saving lives. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, fecal, deworming, flea/tick and heartworm preventative, heartworm tested if old enough (and treated if positive), and microchipped.

His personality is always happy. He will never say no to a nice walk, run, or playing in the yard. He loves kids and is patient with them, but doesn't always remember how big he is, and can knock them over. He does well on walks and is working on not pulling when he gets excited. He does okay with cats and leaves them alone in his foster home, unless they provoke him. Bones and stuffed animals are his favorite things to play with. He is working on kennel training and has made good progress, but still isn't a fan of it and currently uses a heavy duty crate. Because of that, Cosmo would do best with someone who is home a lot. Cosmo does best when foster mom gets to work from home or can take him to work with her. Cosmo is such a snuggle bug and so loving. Cosmo loves to play with other dogs, and would love a friendly, laid-back doggy sibling who is tolerant of puppy shenanigans. Like any of our dogs, this gorgeous boy would make a great addition to an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that his breed needs. Because of that, Cosmos' ideal owner will have prior GSD, Husky, or other herding breed experience. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember that you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills, and manners.

Finn is just a baby and like all puppies, he will need patient parents who can provide good supervision as he continues to learn potty-training, crate-training, to use his sharp puppy teeth on appropriate objects, and all the important things that puppies need to learn :)Like any of our dogs, this sweetie pie boy would make a great addition to an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that his breed needs. Because of that, Finn's ideal owner will have prior GSD, Husky, or other herding breed experience, and a friendly dog buddy for Finn. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember that you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills, and manners.

He’s very loyal and wants to be as close to his people as possible. He loves to be held like a baby and is an angel with baths and nail trims. He’s gaining confidence to explore with his foster doggy brother and enjoys passing his time prancing around, chewing on bones, and entertaining his foster (human) baby sis who he loves!

Hi there, I'm Gonzo, a bouncy 3-month-old German Shepherd pup from Heartland German Shepherd Rescue! I might be little, but I've got a big paw-sonality. My days are filled with tail-wagging fun with my foster brother, Archer. We love to play chase, tug-of-war, and sometimes I even try to out-bark him (but he’s a tough bark to beat!). Guess what? I already know the “sit” command – it’s a piece of biscuit! I’m also learning “down” and how to walk on this funny thing called a leash. I’m getting the hang of it, one paw at a time. I’m super sweet and love getting pets and belly rubs, but I’m always on the move – there’s just so much to explore! I might not have time to cuddle, but I promise I’ll make you laugh with my puppy antics. If you’re looking for a playful, loving furball who’s ready to steal your heart (and maybe a few socks), I’m your pup! Paw-leaze consider giving me my furever home.

This is what her doting foster parents have to say about her: 'Nyx is one of the sweetest puppies we have fostered. She is easy-going, smart, and inquisitive. She arrived to us very skinny and shy, but is definitely coming out of her shell. Nyx gets along well with the other two dogs in her foster home. She likes to wrestle with her foster sister, even though her sister is much bigger. She quickly understands when her foster siblings have had enough. She loves to chase a lure on a pole. She has become more confident over time investigating the backyard’s nooks and crannies. She loves sticks, flowers, and hiding. She does like to dig if allowed, and isn’t above grabbing an unattended sock. She is quickly learning to sit and to wait patiently for her food, even though she gets very excited about feeding time. She is working on potty-training and is almost there. She is working on potty-training and is doing well. Nyx is very comfortable in her crate. She goes in and is learning to wait for the signal to come out. She loves sleepy afternoons on the couch. Like any of our dogs, this beautiful girl would make a great addition to an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that his breed needs. Because of that, Nyx's ideal owner will have prior GSD or similar herding breed experience, and a friendly dog buddy for Nyx. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember that you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills, and manners.

Zeus is a great dog. We originally got him because it was always a dream to have a German Sheppard and we wanted to give our other dog a friend and someone to play with. We bought him from someone that was ill equipped to take care of a puppy. He did great with our kids and dog, but as he has gotten older, about 11 months now, I haven't had the time to work with him and train him to the extent that he needs due to traveling for work so much. We hare to see him go but know he can and will do so much better in a house that has the time he needs. He has a crate that he has been crate trained with and lots of toys that will accompany him to his new home. If there are any other questions, please let me know.

Marley is from a breeder that lived out in the farm back in Elgin, Oklahoma. He’s 1.5 years old with plenty of energy and curiosity! Because of his abundance of energy, he needs someone who is calm, strong, and experienced with his breed. Marley would absolutely love a large space to run around with and be spoiled rotten as he loves sleeping on the bed or couch and of course get LOTS of pets and snuggles. Marley is kennel and potty trained, knows to sit, stay, down, back, out and touch. He could use more training for jumping and pulling on the lead. Marley would be best with a couple, family with older kids or other dogs with similar energy level and size or as an only ‪dog. He is familiar with cats but is too rough with play.

I don’t think she’s pure breed but unknown what she’s mixed with. Was malnourished when I got her, now solid 65-70lbs. Loving, goofy, energetic, house trained. Uses a crate and does well on a leash. Stays in the limits of an e-fence. Does well with 2 older GSDs but tends to be too playful with them and gets hurt. Will follow you everywhere, eager to play and please, loves to sleep with her human. Will drape across your legs while you use the bathroom. Likes eating bath bubbles, playing, putting multiple toys in her mouth at once, stealing everyone’s bones when they’re not looking and running around the yard. Loves a cheap blanket, Barks at strangers but not aggression. Hides when in trouble. Good with my kid. She is a good dog but the older ones don’t t appreciate her energy. I have also been dealing with a medical issue that makes things difficult. She would do great with a family with kids available to play with or even a couple/individual with time to play.

Marla (born in April 2018) is an exquisite German Shepherd in search of a dedicated and patient owner. She dreams of finding a loving home that can offer her the stability she needs to conquer her fears and embark on a journey towards a brighter future! While Marla envisions a life as the center of attention in a new household, there is a possibility for her to adjust to living with other dogs given a proper introduction. She may feel anxious around dogs in general and would benefit from multiple visits with her potential adopter. To ensure Marla's peace of mind, it is recommended that she be placed in a child-free environment as young children and highly energetic dogs tend to overwhelm her. Additionally, a secure 6-foot fence is essential as she has the ability to effortlessly leap over a 4-foot fence. With a well-structured routine, positive reinforcement, and the guidance of a professional trainer, we firmly believe that Marla will flourish into a remarkable companion. If you feel that Marla could be the perfect fit for your family, please take the first step by completing an application to meet this endearing sweetheart! Adoptions for Marla are limited to the area within 50 miles of the Omaha/Council Bluffs area so the pet can continue to take advantage of free training from our certified positive reinforcement trainer. The suggested adoption donation for Marla is $250.  We are a 501c3 organization which means that your donation may be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. Your donation goes toward the high cost of veterinary care for our animals in rescue, as well as providing supportive services to animals in homes. Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application is approved, we will put you in touch with the dog’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the pet. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each dog, based on the dog’s needs.

Rose (b. 8/2023) is a German Shepherd/Pitbull mix.  Rose is very sweet and extremely smart!  She is totally housebroken and stays in her kennel at night and when her foster parents are away from home.  She still has some puppy qualities - jumping, digging in the yard and chewing.  Her foster parents are also working with her so that she doesn't bark when people walk past the yard.  She gets along great with the other dog and cat in the house.  If you're looking for a perky puppy who loves the outdoors, then Rose is the pup for you.  The suggested adoption donation for Rose is $365, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training).

Apollo is a stereotypical German Shepherd. Apollo is looking for an adopter that will work with him on his behavior and training. He is very cuddly once he warms up and absolutely loves to train. He's incredibly treat and ball motivated. Apollo attaches to his people and can be fearful of new people if not properly intro'd. Apollo is looking for an adopter with breed experience that understands GSD behavior and personality and can also continue his training. He would do best in a home with older children that can help with his training. Apollo has done well with submissive dogs that are not overbearing. Apollo has also been working on muzzle training at MHS to make it easier on adopters to work with him. Apollo cannot live in an apartment and needs a home without cats and young children.
