German Shepherd Dog / Mixed : : Female (spayed) : : Adult : : Large
Why, hello! My name is Princess. I am a playful sweetheart who loves being around people, especially children. I love nothing more than to snuggle, and I will give you all the kisses you want. I even have some training! I can sit, stay, come when called, and I know not to jump on people even when I'm excited and want to play. I am royalty, after all. When my foster mom tells me to go to bed, I get under my pillow and sleep with my stuffed animals! I am full of energy and love to run, play, and I walk well on a leash. I even help my foster mom by taking my leash in my mouth and walking myself. If you adopt me, I can help you with my walks, too! I am ready to placed in a fun, caring, loving home with wonderful folks...doesn't that sound like you? If your castle needs a princess, you'll be the subject of my lifelong love and devotion. I am being fostered in Maryland.
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. |
