You Are Approved to Adopt!

Congratulations on your new (or soon-to-be) German Shepherd Dog!

Best wishes for a happy life together! 

Congratulations, you are approved to adopt!

Nothing pleases us more than finding wonderful homes such as yours for a very deserving rescued dog.  We hope that once you have adopted your dog, you will say in touch with us and keep us updated on how your new companion is settling in.  We have a special page set up on our web site for updates and pictures, so feel free to share your story with others who have adopted from us and those who are considering doing so.

Please read over our Adoption Booklet (web version) or (Word version) carefully.  It contains valuable information about your new dog’s transition into your family.  It also has links to the “Resources” section of our web site, which includes information about the GSD, dog training, dog health, and responsible dog ownership.  We hope this helps to make sure your new dog becomes a happy member of your family.

Someday, perhaps you might decide to do what many of us have done and become a foster home or volunteer to serve in another capacity.  There are not many more rewarding things than providing a sanctuary to a dog that has been abandoned or lost, and we hope you will consider joining us as an AGSDR Volunteer.

Our sincere thanks go to your family for providing one of our wonderful German Shepherd Dogs with a safe and loving forever home.  Most rescued dogs have been through so much in their short lives, and now your dog may begin the journey back to security and trust with its new family!  Thank you for making this commitment to a magnificent German Shepherd Dog, and best wishes for a happy life together!

Sincerely,
AGSDR Volunteers
