Rosco, alias the playboy, is a wonderful guy, full of puppy energy who enjoys a game of chase more than anything. He comes to rescue with no manners, but in a short 30 days has learned NO, Come, easy, and GO potty. He is very food motivated and an aims to please dog who would benefit from basic obedience classes, as he may be only 1 year old or so. He is high-energy and craves a romp with another dog who is willing to play hide and go seek, but calms easy and returns to his cage for time out with a rawhide, or a sit and chat with his human. He has learned from his new farm life that cats and ducks are a definite NO - and he will require a strong firm alpha leader to continue his basics on do's and don'ts. Rosco is as shiny as a penny, and has gained a much needed 7 lbs., and looks to be 70 lbs. of predominantly GSD, fully vetted, neutered, with a possible mix of something in there - but hard to detect. Ross must have experienced some abuse in his short life, as he hesitates to go up to men, loves women, and seems to know children, without any aggressive tendencies toward any humans, just happy go lucky. He is now trusted off leash, and comes immediately when called. Maybe you can call him home??? 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.
