Story

Meet Stan! He’s a four-year-old German Shepherd looking for a new forever home. I very recently adopted him but found out someone in my home is allergic, so I’m sadly needing to rehome him. Stan is incredibly sweet, loyal, and playful. He loves running and playing fetch and enjoys being close to his person. He’s timid at first but once he warms up, he’ll follow you everywhere and even lay by the shower while you get ready. He’s very smart, well-mannered, and hasn’t tried getting on furniture (except I let him sleep in my bed a few nights) Stan does shed, but regular brushing makes it manageable. He’s good with other dogs that aren’t too pushy, and he’s been fine with cats that keep to themselves. He hasn’t been around kids yet, but I believe he’d adjust with time. He’s about 110 lbs and currently slimming down. He needs someone with dog experience and a fenced yard to run and burn energy. He truly is the best boy and deserves a loving, active home.

Story

Meet Sandy a very sweet and gentle girl. Sandy was found wandering the road and they were afraid she would get hit by a car so they brought her home. They checked for a microchip and she had none and they have been searching for her family and have not found them. Sandy looks to be a German shepherd mix. Sandy is a happy girl who likes other dogs and would enjoy a playmate to romp around with. She knows basic commands and walks pretty well on a leash. She likes to train for food and would love a family that would continue her training. Sandy loves to be near her people and is very affectionate and enjoys being pet. Road trip, no problem, Sandy enjoys looking out the window and feeling the wind in her face. Sandy has been to the vet for a check up and she did well, a bit nervous at first but warmed up quickly. She was great being handled by the vet and vet techs. Sandy has received her vaccines, is heart worm negative and has gotten a clean bill of health. Sandy foster parents want to find her a wonderful home where she can be loved and appreciated for the sweet and loving girl she is. A companion pet would be great since she is very playful with other dogs. A secure fenced in yard is a must. Sandy is updated on vaccines, potty trained and knows her basic commands.

Story

Meet Sweetie, a 5-year-old German Shepherd. She was found wandering the streets after being mistreated by some neighborhood kids who threw rocks and poked her with sticks. Despite everything she’s been through, Sweetie’s heart is still full of love and hope. The moment we brought her home, she showed us just how gentle and resilient she is. She deserves a second chance at a safe, loving forever home. Sweetie is good with calm, respectful adults. She likes going on walks, laying in the sun, and getting belly rubs. She would love a home with an experienced owner who understands the needs of a dog with a tough past and can give her the love, patience, and care she deserves. She would not do well with young kids or other female dogs — she prefers a quieter, steady environment where she can feel safe. A fenced-in yard is a must for her, as she loves being outdoors but needs a secure space. Sweetie is potty trained, crate trained, and up to date on her rabies vaccine. She’s a smart, loyal girl who just wants to feel safe and loved. If you have room in your heart and home for a dog who’s ready for a fresh start, Sweetie is waiting to meet you. Sweetie is located in Winston Salem. If you would like to adopt Sweetie, please contact Darian at: dbec561@gmail.comBlue Moon Shepherd Rescue only adopts to applicants in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.
