Casey is a beautiful, snow-white GSD with big brown eyes that radiate intelligence and curiosity about the world around her. At four years of age, Casey has spent time living in a back yard and having puppies, and she is now enjoying the comforts of living in a house with humans, dogs, and cats for company. Casey loves people, and she adores being petted, getting belly rubs and back scratches, and snuggling; she even enjoys being brushed and having her nails trimmed, just so long as she can be with her people! Casey is housetrained, crate-trained, and has been started on basic obedience commands. She is a very bright dog, and she would do well with someone who is interested in taking her to dog school and exercising her mind as well as her body. Casey also loves to go for long hikes in the woods around Rock Creek and Lake Frank near her foster home in Rockville, Maryland, and she has demonstrated a talent for and love of swimming in the Creek and Lake and the Potomac River, where she will even occasionally chase a ball or stick thrown for her into the water. If you are an active, outdoorsy person with an interest in dog training and in taking a dog lots of places in the wide world, Casey may be the one for you! Please call Michelle at 301-460-8894 to meet Casey.

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.
