Hi, I am Cassidy! I am a 7 year old, female GSD mix. Aren’t my ears cute? They add to my very loving and excitable nature. From what I hear, I am one of the volunteer’s favorites at the rescue! Just like my other fellow GSD’s at the rescue, I have lots of energy and would do well with an active family, without children or female dogs. Though, I get along with most male dogs given proper introduction. I am a cautious girl who takes time to warm-up to people, but once I trust you, look out, because you’re in my circle forever! I do prefer females to males but can trust them over time. Do you love to train? Then I am your girl. I am a quick learner and love to play, so I can catch onto obedience in no time. I am currently working on my barrier reactivity with a trainer at EDCGSR. He is helping me be the best I can be! If you’re looking for a dog who is protective and loving, then I am the girl for you! I am spayed, HW negative, microchipped and current on all vaccinations. Please contact EDCGSR and fill out an application to meet me. Minimum adoption donation: $250.00 show less

Hi there, I'm... Charlie! I'm a 5.5 year old 90lb. ball of lovable, goofiness. I love people but will be protective and bark like a typical GSD around strangers. Well isn't that my job? I love playing with other dogs, both male and female , but need to be reminded sometimes not to play to rough. I absolutely love to play in the water, and run and play with the other dogs. I do have a high prey drive so no cats. I know Sit, Place, I can walk nicely on a loose leash and I really want to please. I have a very cute smile when I'm excited, I raise my front lip up over my teeth. I'm a very friendly guy who loves to play fetch and will even bring the ball back!!! That’s unusual for GSD’s I've heard. I once lived in a house before I came to stay at the rescue. I would love to spend my days playing with other dogs, or playing fetch and then come in and relax on my dog bed. I'm a pretty versatile gentleman. My foster parents at the rescue want to keep me, but I'd rather have my own home. They say I"m one remarkable German Shepherd Dog. I am current on vaccinations, heartworm negative, microchipped and neutered, and ready to go. Could you be my final furever home? Not sure about cats. Minimum adoption fee: $350.00 show less

Well Hello There! My name's Jamine and I"m a 1.5 year old, 65lb. female GSD. I was found running as a stray with another dog where I was lucky enought to get picked up and taken to the shelter. As nice as the people were at Amador County Shelter, it was still a scary place for me. But my luck got even better. I was pulled by this Rescue and I'm now in a quiet foster home where I'm learning how to be the best GSD I can be. With my new foster Mom I'm learning manners and obedience. I'm learning how to be crate and house trained. I'm a pretty active girl and would need someone with patience and a willingness to work with me on my confidence as I'm somewhat timid. Going for walks or hanging around the house is fine for me now, and I've liked all the dogs I've met so far. I can tell you more about myself once I've had some time to settle in, I'm current on vacciinations, spayed, heartworm negative and micro-chipped/. Minimum adoption donation: $350.00 show less

NEEDS FOSTER: Hi, my name is Kiera and that means dark one, which I am. I've got a beautiful black and red coat. I'm a 5ish, 80lb. female with a big personality. I love to hang out with people and play with other dogs as long as the dogs are respectful. I can be a bit pushy myself so sometimes I need to be reminded not to play so rough. I love to play fetch and chase, and when I'm tired I will come right back and lay down by your feet. My friends at EDCGSR pulled me from the sheter and are teaching me some useful skills. I"m learning how to walk on leash for the first time. I'm learning to Sit and Place and I absolutely love my crate. I can be a bit mouthy and a bit willful, so I'd feel better around older children. My doctor says I have pannus which is an eye ailment but the daily eyedrops I'm receiving have already helped me tremenously. If you're looking for a sweet, goofy, middle aged gal with lots of energy and a willingness to please then I could be your next best friend. I"m current on vaccinations, spayed, heartworm negative and microchipped. show less

Hi I'm Lucy. I'm a 4 year old, spayed girl and I weigh 80lbs. I was adopted from the shelter but unfortunately my new family was unable to care for me so they're working with my friends at EDCGSR to find me the perfect forever home. A little about me... I'm very good with people, I just love people. In my foster home I live with a 2 year old and I love that little "pup". I also live with other small dogs and while we aren't the best of friends, I do enjoy going to the dog park and playing with other dogs closer to my size. I love balls and toys and love to play fetch. I really love the water and have webbed feet so I'll probably be a great swimmer. I'm playful, energetic and really want to please so I'd do well with someone who's active and/or likes to run. I used to be an outside only farm dog but now I sleep on a dog bed beside my foster Mom's bed. She says I'm housetrained and that I'm a real good girl. I know SIT, DOWN, SHAKE AND COME. I'm working on STAY. I walk pretty well on a HALTI but sometimes I get really exctied when I see new dogs, but I'm working on that. I also really like to chase squirrels, so I'd probably chase cats too. So probably no cats. Sometimes my nose gets the best of me and I can get it into places it shouldn't be. While on the farm I wanted to play with the horses, but instead wound up getting my tail stomped on. It had to be partially amputated. It's Ok cause it just makes me look cuter! I I am still working on manners, but I think that's a life long thing. If you're looking for a very sweet girl who gets along with any human I've met so far, an active gal who loves to run and play, I could be your new best friend. I'm current on vaccinations, heartworm negative, microchipped Adoption Donation: $300.00 show less

Hello everyone, my name is Nike! I am a compact and fun sized GSD mix around 5 years old. I weigh around 55lbs. Just like my name suggests, I am a fun and active guy who would make a great hiking or walking partner. I attended the EDCGSR pack walk recently and our trainer was impressed with how well I did. I did great with the other dogs on the walk, walked GREAT on leash and enjoyed being part of the pack! So, not only am I great around other dogs on a walk and a crowd of people, I also have my basics in place...like being crate trained, leash trained, sit, down and taking direction well. I am the total package! Something fun I would like to try is agility. I love jumping up on things and can run and turn quickly. I would do best in a home with older children as I'm a quick mover so probably no cats or young children. If you're looking for a fun sized GSD who can hang out with you at a coffee shop, go for a walk around town or go on fun trips, then fill out an application and contact my friends at EDCGSR! We look forward to meeting you! Nike is current on vaccinations, heartworm negative, neutered, micro-chipped and ready to go to his forever home. Minimum Adoption Fee: $300.00 show less

NEEDS FOSTER: Hello there. My name is :Phoenix and I'm a 3-4 year old, 75lb. male GSD who's working on being the best I can be with my friends at EDCGSR. I was recentlyl pulled from a shelter and I'm still working on decompressing. For now I can tell you I'm friendly with people, I take treats gently and I love to run and play fetch. I'm a bit mouthy when I get excited so I'm working on being calm. It's just I was picked up as a stray and never had any formal trraining. I can say I'm a quick study though. I already sit and wait for my food. At this time I would be best being the only dog as I can be dog selective, and prpobably no cats as I like to dhase fast moving objedts. More to come on me as I learn the ropes. I would love to get into a foster home where someone would work with me. I'm neutered, current on vaccinations, heartworm negative and microchipped.

NEEDS FOSTER: Hey there my name's Samantha. I'm a 7 year old 97lb. GSD mix and I'm looking for my forever family. I"m a very sweet gal if I don't mind saying. I get along well with people and other dogs. At this time I'm really just getting used to being out of the shelter and I'm focused on learning the ropes at the rescue. I've been in the shelter for a time, I think my owner passed away, anyway, the shelter was unable to locate them. I'm really a nice girl, however, I could stand to lose a few pounds. I'm pretty active for my size. I really like to go on walks and then I'd like nothing more than to come in a hang out with you. I'm house trained but working on my leash manners. More to come on me once I settle in. I'm spayed, current on vaccinations, heart worm negative, microchipped. If your looking for a very sweet, gentle lady I could really use a place of my own.

NEEDS FOSTER! Hi, my name is Toby. I’m a 85-90lb, 4 year old gentle giant with soulful brown eyes and a disposition to match. I have a beautiful, thick tricolor coat. Just some of my great qualities include housetrained, crate-trained and well-mannered with all people I meet. You see, I was rescued from Yolo County Shelter by the wonderful volunteers at EDCGSR. They heard I needed double elbow surgery, so they invested in me and provided the care I needed. I was a bit of a hefty dude as I had to limit my exercise, but now since I'm on the mend, I've lost at least 30 lbs and I'm finally enjoying life. I love running around with the other male and female dogs here at the rescue. I love to go on walks and would be fine with a 1-2 mile hike, however, sometimes my elbows get sore and m;y foster Mom gives me something to help. I walk pretty well on leash but like all us GSD's would benefit from a training class to brush up on my basics! I'm patient with kids, but older children 10 and up would be best as I'm a pretty big dude and at times I can be a bit pushy. If you’re looking for a sweet and gentle spirit who will devote his life to giving you love and affection, then reach out and meet me. I’m current on all vaccinations, heartworm negative, microchipped and neutered. Minimum Adoption Fee: $300 show less
