Our Story is how we help German Shepherds in need find their Forever Homes.
Our foster dogs are well taken care of while they are in rescue, receiving love, attention and necessary medical care. Often, this is the first opportunity our dogs have had to love and be loved. Our foster parents spend significant time and effort socializing the dogs and working to bring out the best in our canine family. Unless there are age or health limitations, our foster dogs receive their basic immunizations, are microchipped and are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. We look forward to a day when our work will be done, but until then, and with your support, we will continue to serve our wonderful German Shepherd breed, in the best way possible. We are honored to work with GSDs and GSD-loving people in the VA/MD/DC area. Thank you for helping us help these dogs. We couldn’t do it without our wonderful community.
We are always looking for qualified foster providers. Since we do not kennel our dogs, we rely on people opening their homes to provide care, love, and attention for our GSDs. We train and mentor our foster providers and we are always available to help. We also need volunteers to help in many other areas, such as attend adoption events, help with transport for the dogs, do administrative tasks, or take photos. These are only a few of the many necessary things that have to be done to make this rescue successful. If you are interested in helping, visit our website at www.vgsr.org and apply to become a foster provider and a volunteer today.
We also need donations! It’s yet another way to help us help the dogs. To make a donation, visit our website and donate today.
