rescue with her brother, Rocco. They still act like pups, full of curiosity and MISCHIEF. Like all young GSDs, they get into stuff, explore, and do the crazy things puppies do: especially chew! They need an experienced, patient home that can help them learn what's allowed and what's not. Lizzie is soft in her initiation for affection. She is affectionate, playful, gentle, kind, tender, and a little bashful. She looks to her brother for leadership and affection, but on her own, she is amazingly sweet and playful. We think that she would like to have another dog in the home. Lizzy gets along great with the older GSD in the foster home. She also LOVES going to the dog park and socializing with the other dogs. (There are no cats or kids in the foster home, so we have no information on how they do with them.) She's house-trained and crate-trained. She is learning good leash manners in the foster home. She is already a great jogging buddy, and she would love to be able to continue to get plenty of exercise after adoption. ADOPTION FEE: $225 They tested positive for heartworms but their treatment is in progress (slow kill). Upon adoption, all dogs are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and microchipped. Information about our adoption fees and our adoption process is available on our website: .RedStickGermanShepherds.

Applications are approved solely in the discretion of the RSGSR board of directors.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
