About Phoebe
Status: Adopted!
Species: Dog
Ear Type: Natural/Uncropped
Phoebe is an exquisite 3.9-year-old GSD, and is about 80 lbs. of pure sweetness. She is living with other dogs and some kittens, too. She tries to clean and nurture her kitties as if they are her own ever so gently. She is wonderful with children and adults, too. She loves to play ball; stuffed toys are great, and anything you want to do is fine with her. She has good house manners and is house-trained, and is scheduled to be spayed. Leash training will be a must, but with hand commands she will sit, down, and stay at least a few minutes! She is an excellent family dog. Got room in your heart for this special GSD? 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 $200.00 donation to VGSR, and the adoption is completed.
