Freedom German Shepherd Rescue

We are a group of volunteers that are dedicated to saving the lives of German Shepherds and German Shepherd mixes. We all work in a variety of disciplines to include medical, financial, animal welfare and corporate. What bonds us is our love for all dogs, specifically German Shepherds. We've all volunteered for other 501c nonprofit rescues and feel the dogs are best served by all of us working together. We all strongly feel that there are too many unwanted, abused and neglected animals that we want to work together, with shelters and the community, to help reduce the epidemic through saving the dogs and educating the public.

Meet Dutchess

Greetings, everyone! My name is Dutchess and I'm a 4 year old, 50 pound German Shepherd who is ready to find her furever family! After I was surrendered to the shelter because my former owner could no longer care for me, the nice people at Freedom German Shepherd Rescue took me in. I am housebroken, crate trained and love playing with other dogs. When other dogs don't like me, I just squeal and roll over to show that I am not a threat. I haven’t met any cats or small children yet, so I don't know how I feel about them. I am a little skittish when meeting new people and will scamper away until I get comfortable. Want to know the secret to making me feel more comfortable? Treats - and lots of them! I am a chow hound, if I do say so myself. My foster mom says that I don't have one mean bone in my body. I will just shower you with kisses! A home with an at least 4 foot high fence would be best for me. Another fun fact about me is that I love shoes. I don't chew on them but I like to collect them. When I really like you, I will bring them to you. If you are ready to make me a part of your family, please contact your adoption coordinator. If you do not yet have an adoption coordinator, please complete an adoption application at www.freedomgermanshepherdrescue.org . I am being fostered outside of Fayetteville, NC.

Adoption Process
All applicants must pass a vet check, phone interview and home visit in order to adopt. Once an applicant passes, they must sign an adoption contract where they agree to alter the dog by 6 months of age - if they are adopting a puppy, guarantee that the dog will receive proper vet care, food, water and exercise, and will return the dog to the rescue if they can no longer keep the dog for any reason. All dogs are microchipped prior to adoption, with Freedom GSR always remaining on the chip. The adoption fee is $250, adopters receive a 2 week trial period with the dog and if the adopter is found to be in violation of the contract, Freedom GSR will reclaim the dog. All dogs will not be adopted out until they are up to date on shots, free of heartworms and intestinal parasites and altered, if six months of age or older. If a puppy is adopted, the adoption contract stipulates that the puppy must be altered by the time s/he turns 6 months old.
