Are you trying to surrender your German Shepherd Dog?

1. Read First:  Rescue Catastrophe

​

2. We cannot consider if the dog:

• Is not located in the greater Dallas / Fort Worth area

• Does not look like a purebred German Shepherd Dog

• Must be immediately removed from your home

• Has significant behavior problems

• Does not get along with other dogs (all our foster homes have other GSDs)

• Has a bite history

​

3. Networking your dog:

• Name -

• How long can you hang onto the dog?

• Do you have vet records?

• Reason for Surrender -

• Your City & ZIP Code -

• Your Name, Email & Phone -

• PHOTOS - attach views that include head (with ears up) & full body.

This post will provide the necessary information for rescue networking & your own efforts at rehoming.

 

4. Good Shepherd Rescue Intake Process

• ALL information in #3 above must be submitted to gsdresq@gmail.com

• Dog must be personally evaluated by one of our volunteers

• Any / all vet records must be provided before we will schedule an evaluation

• If the dog passes the evaluation, you must be able to keep the dog until a foster becomes available; or be willing to self-foster until the dog is adopted
