Whether he’s exploring, playing fetch, or just soaking up the sunshine, Benny is happiest outside!☀️

Benny is an 8-10 month old Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This handsome young guy is full of energy, curiosity, and excitement for life.

Benny loves toys, especially tug and fetch, and is highly food motivated, making him a great training partner. He already knows some basics and is eager to learn more. He’s social, affectionate, and enjoys spending time with his people.

As a young working-breed pup, Benny will thrive in an active home that can continue providing structure, training, and plenty of mental and physical exercise. If you’re looking for a smart, loyal, and fun-loving companion, Benny may be the perfect addition to your family 🐾✨

🐾 FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED FOR PIA ASAP: Please Read ⬇️

Pia is our 11-month-old female shepherd mix who is finally learning what safety, love, and human kindness feel like.

BACKSTORY: Pia was found living in a backyard with little to no human interaction alongside her sisters. While her siblings have now found foster or adoptive homes, Pia is still waiting for someone willing to give her the chance she deserves.

She may be shy at first, but underneath that cautious exterior is a sweet, gentle girl who desperately wants to trust. Once Pia feels safe, she leans into affection, seeks out cuddles, and loves being close to her people. Watching her confidence grow has been incredibly rewarding.

Pia is dog-friendly and absolutely thrives around other dogs, so she MUST go to a home with a confident canine companion who can help show her the world isn’t so scary. A securely fenced yard is also required.

🖤 11 months old
🖤 Female Shepherd Mix
🖤 Dog friendly
🖤 Best with children 10+
🖤 Needs another dog in the home
🖤 Fenced yard required

Please share Pia so we can help her find the safe, loving home she’s been waiting for, or apply if you think you’d be a good fit!! 👇🏼

Hi, I’m Rex 👋. I’m a 4 years old German Shepherd with floppy ears, a curly happy tail, and I’m still searching for my forever person. Last year I thought I found my home, but things didn’t work out and I ended up back at the rescue.

I’m looking for a calm, experienced home where I can be the only pet and have a quieter lifestyle. I’ve been working hard with my volunteers and have been meeting new people like a champ, especially if they come with treats (those are my kind of people 😎).

I love my toys, walk nicely on a leash, and once I bond with you, I’m all in. I just need someone patient who’s willing to keep helping me become my best self. Could that be you? 💙

Please visit www.gsrnj.org to adopt me! ✍️

Memorial Day is a time to honor the ultimate sacrifices made by both human soldiers and canine heroes, particularly the valiant German Shepherds that have served as dedicated military working dogs (MWD), bomb sniffers, and loyal protectors on the battlefield.

🐾 PUPPY ALERT — Meet Peyton! 🖤

Peyton is one of three beautiful shepherd-mix sisters who are finally getting the chance they deserve. At just around 9 months old, Peyton is already showing what an incredible dog she’s going to become.

Found living in a backyard with very little human interaction, Peyton started life without the love and guidance every puppy should have. Despite that, she is incredibly sweet, gentle, and eager to connect once she feels safe.

She’s currently thriving in a foster home with other dogs and even cats, and she gets along wonderfully with everyone. Peyton can be a little shy at first, but underneath that cautious exterior is a loyal, affectionate girl who just wants someone to believe in her.

✨ Smart
✨ Gentle
✨ Dog-friendly
✨ Cat-friendly
✨ Ready for her forever family

Watching Peyton learn how good life can be has been so rewarding — now all she needs is a home of her own. 🏡

If you’re looking for a sweet soul to grow with, Peyton might be your girl. Please share to help her find the loving family she deserves. ❤️

Rex decided the best way to beat the heat was a dip in the pool ☀️💦🐾

On 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐮𝐞 𝐃𝐨𝐠 𝐃𝐚𝐲, we’re celebrating amazing dogs like Rex. He’s loyal, loving, and still waiting for the right person to give them the second chance he deserves 💙

Rex is a 4 year old German Shepherd with floppy ears, a curly happy tail, and a big heart for his people. He’s looking for a calm, experienced home where he can continue to build confidence and thrive. Rex loves toys, walks nicely on leash, and has been doing great meeting new people with our volunteers (especially when treats are involved 🍖).

He would do best as the only pet in an adult-only home with limited visitors and someone willing to continue helping him succeed.
