Rogue Desperately Needs A Home
Rogue is a 4 year old small neutered male and has been in kennels far too long which is slowly driving him crazy. We cannot let this continue so a home needs to be found urgently.
We are looking for somebody special to give Rogue a forever home.
When Rogue arrived at the kennels they couldn’t get near him. Rogue is a reformed character and can be handled by anybody even women. He looks forward to his walks with our volunteers and doesn’t mind meeting new people.
Our volunteers take him out for walks where he can be a little nervous and can jump and twist on his lead. He is walked on a harness and slip lead. He doesn’t react when he sees other dogs.
If you are interested please complete an adoption form so that a volunteer can contact you.
CeCa's Very Sad Situation.
CeCa (pronounced Seeka) belongs to a volunteer who over the years has done so much for GSDR but who is now gravelly ill and CeCa must find a new home ASAP.
Approx 8 years old very lively acts like a 2 year old. Very friendly to everybody even people who come to the door. Exceptionally sweet natured, wouldn't bite in any circumstances even when taking a ball away. CeCa loves cuddles, adores men even though she lives with a lady on her own.
Doesn't pull on the lead, good outside except with other dogs and she is dig reactive. She walks well on a long lead, sniffs and enjoys herself.
Settles down at night, very accommodating in the house.
Has always lived with other dogs and could tolerate living with a male with careful introduction.
CeCa has never lived with children but her owner thinks she would be fine as she is so friendly but perhaps better with older rather than very young children.
Definite no to cats, she has a high prey drive and will even chase birds in the garden.
I you would like to adopt Ceca, please complete an adoption form.
GSDR/Swiis Foster Care
Swiis Foster Care are an independent fostering agency providing stable, loving homes for children and young people across England and Scotland. Swiis have services in Bristol, Buckinghamshire, London, Birmingham, Manchester, Lancashire, Leeds, Sheffield, Durham, Dundee, Dunfermline and Glasgow.
During the past 2 years Swiis have proudly sponsored over 30 dogs in partnership with GSDR, most of these dogs are from overseas and with the dedicated volunteers and partners of GSDR many have found their forever homes. You can view some of the sponsored doggy updates and their progress by clicking here.
Having adopted 2 dogs from GSDR ourselves, my wife Jill and I are passionate about helping as many dogs as we can and urge people who are thinking about adding a canine member to their family to consider adopting a rescue dog, there are so many rescue dogs waiting in temporary homes and kennels (both home and abroad) who need a safe and loving forever home.
German Shepherds are the most loving of dogs, they try very hard to please and are extremely loyal and great family companions, you just need to give them direction and an abundance of love. Whether you decide to provide a temporary home or adopt, the GSDR team will help you at every stage of your journey, with invaluable support and guidance.
Swiis Foster Care are pleased to continue to work in partnership with the GSDR and offer financial support to those dogs who are in urgent need. One of the dogs we are currently supporting is called Poppy who is a Romanian rescue found on the streets and was very undernourished and heavily pregnant. We supported GSDR to ensure that Poppy was able to give birth to her 7 pups safely. The pups are now 4 months old and GSDR, with support from Swiis Foster Care, will eventually arrange for their safe travel to new and loving homes. At the moment Swiis Foster Care have 775 foster children in placement and they are at the heart of supporting Poppy and her babies; We recently ran a competition for our fostered children to suggest names for each of the 7 pups, 4 boys and 3 girls. Please click here to see pictures of the newly named pups and their proud mum Poppy, they are so adorable.

CAUCASIAN OVCHARKA (SHEPHERDS)
Although we are a German Shepherd rescue, there does not seem to be an official Caucasian Shepherd Rescue here in the UK, so since 2013, we have been helping these dogs find homes and have built up a good knowledge of this breed.
Most of these dogs are finding their way into the UK through unscrupulous breeders in eastern Europe or coming in via questionable rescuers with no rescue back up here in the UK. Most that we have helped so far, have been picked up as strays here in the UK.
This is certainly not the breed for everyone and if you are considering owning a Caucasian Ovcharka, please make sure that you thoroughly research the breed first. They may be the cutest bundles of fluff imaginable as puppies but they are a giant breed and will grow into a very large immensely powerful dog. Caucasian Shepherds that we have for rehoming.
GSDR always has and always will operate a NO DESTRUCTION POLICY because we believe that all dogs deserve a good life. We will find the right home for all the dogs that come into our care no matter how long it takes. German Shepherd Rescue is both a registered charity and company, which produces yearly accounts so that you know where your donated monies are spent.
German Shepherd Rescue
We are German Shepherd Rescue the biggest and best charity in England and Wales helping to foster and rehome German Shepherd puppies and German Shepherd dogs (Alsatians).
German Shepherd Rescue helps rehome German Shepherds across the UK. Can you help us raise funds so that we can rescue more unwanted German Shepherd Dogs?
If you are thinking of buying a dog as a family pet forget that puppies for sale advert, please read this article first.
Please do not contact the rescue specifically for puppies - buying a puppy. We are looking for loving homes for rescue dogs of all ages. We always have many German Shepherd dogs for rehoming. Can you offer to adopt a German Shepherd and give it a good home or maybe you could foster a German Shepherd until a new home can be found.
If you would like us to feature a German Shepherd dog that is looking for a new home, please contact us with your details. Please note that this is a genuine service for German Shepherd Rescue and not a listing for people wishing to sell their German Shepherd dog.
We do not have puppies for sale or dogs for sale but we do ask for a minimum donation which goes towards helping other needy dogs. Monies raised go towards kenneling and veterinary costs.
Volunteers are always welcome.
German Shepherd Rescue is run by volunteers who are involved because of their love for the breed. Most have jobs and families and fit in rescue work when they can and at their own cost. Please be patient, and we will deal with your requests as soon as we can. Our rescue dogs are worth waiting for!
