🐾Beautiful Maggie is still searching for her forever home 🐾

We know her person is out there. Please share!

Our Maggie is a gentle soul who yearns to find a forever home with a soft couch for quiet snuggles, a yard for rolling and frolicking, A mouthy player, Maggie would prefer human siblings old enough to understand the difference between mouthing and biting and help train her accordingly (we want to make sure her mouthiness is poor social skills and not a gentle reminder from her to play easier - more to come on this). At 4 years young, she’s still got that puppy feeling and loves learning new stuff.

**Maggie would do best in a home as the only dog.**

A home with no cats would be the best fit for Maggie.

💥Luna needs life saving Heart surgery💥

Luna's surgery is expected to cost 💢$6500💢

Luna has a condition called PDA, Patent Ductus Arteriosus. She has a large hole in her heart. Luna was born with this defect.

Because of the defect, Luna's blood can't circulate normally, and her heart has to work harder than normal.

Surgery can correct this defect and give Luna a chance at a normal life.

Luna's surgery date is pending as she needs to stay on her medication protocol until than. We will make sure to keep everyone updated on this.

🌟Meet Amelia available for Adoption🌟 "In the clamorous hustle of a bustling world, there emerged a tale both touching and tender, of a forlorn creature named Amelia. Picture, if you will, the stark expanse of a Target parking lot, where amid the sea of cars and consumers, Amelia was discovered, a lone figure amid the chaos. Skittish as a deer in the moonlight, her wary eyes darted hither and thither. Yet, in the midst of her trepidation, she discerned in me a beacon of hope, a harbinger of solace amidst the storm. With each passing day, her fears ebb like the tide, replaced by a burgeoning affection for her siblings, both canine and human, large and small. She revels in the company of her fellow shepherd sister, a kindred spirit with whom she shares a bond forged in the crucible of adversity. And as for her penchant for the men folk, she displays a preference akin to the flutter of a moth drawn inexorably to the flame. Indeed, though she may harbor a touch of food aggression and the occasional accident inside, we labor diligently to mend these fissures in her character, imparting unto her the wisdom of manners befitting a lady of her stature. In sum, should you find your heart stirred by the plight of our fair Amelia, know that within her beats the heart of a love bug, yearning for nothing more than the warmth of affection and the tender embrace of her found family." 🐾Dog, people, and children friendly. No cats. Ameila is around two years old🐾 🐾If you think Ameila would be a perfect fit for your family please apply to adopt🐾 www.gashepherd.org

🐾♥️Can you believe Maggie is still available for adoption??? please share so we can find Maggie her forever home. We knew she had secrets but holy Crown Jewels, we were not expecting this! We knew she had hip issues, and hoped they were just from age and poor living conditions. We were wrong. Our vet has confirmed that at some point prior to rescue, Mags was hit by a car! She was living in constant pain. Thankfully Maggie had hip surgery and is recovering well. Maggie is thriving in physical therapy and is ready to find her forever home!!! Our Maggie is a gentle soul who yearns to find a forever home with a soft couch for quiet snuggles, a yard for rolling and frolicking, and maybe a sibling, similar in size and activity level. A mouthy player, Maggie would prefer human siblings old enough to understand the difference between mouthing and biting and help train her accordingly (we want to make sure her mouthiness is poor social skills and not a gentle reminder from her to play easier - more to come on this). At 4 years young, she’s still got that puppy feeling and loves learning new stuff. **Maggie would do best with another male dog, or as the only dog in the home.** To apply to adopt please visit www.gashepherd.org

♥️Beautiful Athena is still in need of a foster/adopter to see her through Heartworm treatment♥️ 🐾Please tag family, friends, coworkers!! Let's find Athena a place to go. Athena is a 1.5 year old female GSD. Housebroken Working on leash skills Does well children she has met Does well with dogs After treatment will do best in an active home A family with middle school aged children or older would work best. Cats unknown Dogs of similar size and energy level are best fit UTD on vet care. 🐾To apply to foster https://www.gashepherd.org/volunteer 🐾To apply to adopt https://www.gashepherd.org/adopt

Your smile for today! Look at our Teska happy and care free in her foster home. She has been through so much and seeing this just makes us all smile!! 🐾Teska is available for adoption🐾 please share with family&friends and let's find Teska her forever home. Easy going and middle aged!! The perfect assistant or friend you've been missing!! Housebroken and well mannered, content taking a few good strolls around with their human.She does not require vigorous exercise as younger dogs do. Teska would make a great friend to someone working from home, or who may live alone. Teska will make a wonderful companion to a home with NO other dogs. 🐾Link to apply to adopt https://www.gashepherd.org/adopt

Teska

Look at sweet Teska playing!! She is looking for her forever home!! www.gashepherd.org/adopt She’s no Jones, that’s for sure. With only the 237 and something thousandth most common last name in Germany (so not common at all) for a first name, Teska herself, thankfully, is rather basic. True to all the GSD lore, she wants to be with her humans 24x7, including playing bedside rug at night. She knows basic commands, but don’t even think of trying to rush her preferred leisurely walking pace. At 6 years young, she would prefer to remain an only pup. Her origin story is a mystery, but it doesn’t seem to have been filled with love, as she tends to cower when approached, is fearful of loud beeps (like that awful smoke detector dead battery beep or the microwave, but honestly, can you blame her - they’re horrible), and shows some resource guarding. Cats and other small animals are a definite no, as are small children. Given her age and unknown prior history, late teens and up would be the best fit, but her ultimate fit would be with homebodies or retirees. Teska is starting heartworm treatment soon, and will be available for foster/adoption. Are you looking for a couch buddy to binge some Netflix with or someone to keep your toes warm during your monthly Canasta battles?

This week's Feel Good Friday features Chewy. Adopted at 10 years old, he's having some summer fun with his family. Want to adopt a new friend? www.gashepherd.org

Great news to share..Siri is adopted! Many of you followed her journey from being hit by a car & taken to Fulton County Animal Services, through leg surgery &HW treatment Bartow Animal Hospital .but look at her now, walking with her new brother and his friends. We can't thank you enough for your support, prayers and donations to her care. Look what a difference it made in her life. This is why we do what we do.

Want to help out?

At German Shepherd Gog Rescue of Georgia we are passionate about our dogs. Not many things pull at our hearts like seeing a Shepherd not getting the love they deserve. Shepherds are natural protectors of their packs but sometimes they need a little help. If you would like to help out, the best ways are with monetary donations and fostering newly rescued shepherds. It’s an unfortunate reality that the numbers of dogs will always out number our fostering homes. If you would like to foster or know of someone please contact us so we can get one more dog out of a kill shelter.
