Hi, I'm Miles. I was strolling down the road one day and a nice lady picked me up. That lady was a VGSR volunteer and tried to find my family for me. Nobody came looking for me, so VGSR took me in because I'm so special. I'm a love-bug, looking for feet to lay my head on and a home to call my own. Foster mom says I'm a mellow fellow, and calls me her sweetie. I love everybody and everything. I like to play sometimes with the other dogs, but mostly I just keep an eye on mom - she needs a kiss once in a while and I'm there for her. I met the cat-thing and tried to kiss him, and he whacked me, so I'm not going to pay any attention to him anymore. I have good house-manners - I promise I won't jump on anybody or chew anything except my bones and toys. I'm house-trained, and so good you won't need to crate me. I'm looking for a forever home with a family that will love on me and take care of me and when somebody needs a kiss, I'll be there!.

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.
