About Raina

  • Status: Adopted!
  • Species: Dog
  • Ear Type: Natural/Uncropped
Hi, my name is Raina! That means mighty in German and my Mom says Im mighty cute! I was found by Animal Control and they took me to a scary place called the shelter. After two weeks, Mom and Dad came to get me. Boy was I glad to get out of there! Mom and Dad think Im a GSD mix. I dont know what that is. I just know Im one happy, spunky, petite little girl! Mom says I have to tell you stuff about me. Im working real hard on this potty-training thing. I only cry for a few minutes after Mom puts me in my crate. Then I settle right down. I live with three grown-up GSDs and I give them all a hard time. I love to play, play, play! Mom says my forever home needs to have someone at home to take care of me most of the time. Im good with the big dogs, but Ive never seen a cat. Oh, and I really like the teenagers they have here. They play with me all the time! Are you looking for a sweet, adventurous girl to join your family? Please check out our web site at www.shepherdrescue.org for more information about our dogs, our adoption process and to download an application. You must have a fully approved application on file prior to privately meeting our dogs. We do not have a facility, all our dogs are housed in private foster homes throughout MD/DC/VA areas. More information available on our web site, so please read through our web site before emailing questions, as it might save us both some time!

VGSR can only adopt dogs out in the Virginia/Maryland/DC area, no exceptions.

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 $250.00 donation to VGSR, and the adoption is completed.
