Arent I the cutest little thing??? Im only 32 pounds and 6 months old; I think I have a little more growing to do. I am very laid back and love cuddling. Belly rubs and ear scratches are my favorites. My foster family has another dog that I like to hang out and play with, but Im not a big rough-houser. They also have a cat here that I love to check out and chase a little, but she doesnt bother me a bit. I am almost house-trained and would rather empty outside but need to be watched carefully just in case. I know how to sit, lie down, and come and cant wait to start learning shake. And, I am learning to play fetch. I love to follow my foster family around the house. I want to know whats happening around me. My vaccinations are all up to date and I have a clean bill of health. I would love to go to a home where theres a lot of love to go around, I will make sure I give as much as I get. I know I can make you happy if you just give me a home.

Although donations of all types are needed, our primary need is foster homes for our lovely dogs while they wait for their new family to find them. Fostering is an extremely rewarding experience. Vet care is paid for by our rescue, and we can even provide you with food. All YOU need to add is love and security.

The adoption process starts with the applicant filling out the adoption application. This can happen at any time during the process, before or after having met a GSD that might be the ideal companion. (It's an advantage to have a pre-approved application on file with VGSR. It should be stressed here that being pre-approved does not mean that any potential adopter can select any available dog at will and take that dog home immediately. VGSR will exercise its best judgement as to which GSD will be the best match for that specific adopter based on a number of qualifying criteria. Many GSDs that come to us are matched up with their new people very quickly because their people have been pre-approved.) The applicant then submits the application form with a non-refundable $10.00 processing fee. VGSR reviews the application, then schedules an interview and home visit during which a number of questions are asked and the home is reviewed to be sure there is a contained/safe yard, and to meet the family involved. Once the application is approved, the applicant is asked to submit a $200.00 donation to VGSR, and the adoption is completed.
