Good Golly Miss Molly! Hi. Im Molly. Currently I am living in my foster home with my foster mom and dad and foster dog brother. I am 3 years old and am a big old luv bug! I settled in pretty quickly in my home and although I live with my foster brother, I would do best in a home where I get all the snuggles and love. I would also do best with children 8 and up. I have been a very good girl since coming to my foster home. I have never had an accident in the home. I always wait to go outside. I have full roam of the house when my foster mom and dad go away. I have stayed for as long as 8 hours alone and did just fine! I love to snuggle on the sofa and also in the bed. I will go and sleep on my own bed if I am told to do so. I know basic commands and walk fairly well on a leash. I could benefit from a bit more training when I get to my forever home. Oh I also live with a caged bird and have not even attempted to go near him. I do not bark in the home, and I have welcomed all visitors with a wagging tail. I do bark when I go outside. I want all the surrounding dogs to know that this is my yard and my big bark will keep them from coming over. I do need a six foot fence because I love to jump and could clear anything lower with ease. I love toys and will play fetch with you for as long as you want. I am a real sweetheart and am looking for my forever home. Please check out our web site at www.shepherdrescue.org for more information about our dogs, our adoption process and to download an application. You must have a fully approved application on file prior to privately meeting our dogs. We do not have a facility, all our dogs are housed in private foster homes throughout MD/DC/VA areas. More information available on our web site, so please read through our web site before emailing questions, as it might save us both some time!

VGSR can only adopt dogs out in the Virginia/Maryland/DC area, no exceptions.

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 $250.00 donation to VGSR, and the adoption is completed.
