🌟 Giving Tuesday Spotlight: Meet Ariana 🌟

This Giving Tuesday, we want to share the story of Ariana, a brave and loving German Shepherd who has faced unimaginable challenges. Ariana was dropped off at a shelter while pregnant and gave birth to five beautiful puppies. Like many shelters, they didn’t have the space or resources to care for a mom and her babies, and the entire family landed on the euthanasia list.

Thanks to incredible volunteers and the support of our rescue community, Ariana and her puppies were saved just in time. Today, three of her puppies have found loving forever homes and are thriving, two are still waiting for theirs, and Ariana is blossoming into the amazing dog we know she can be.

But Ariana’s journey hasn’t been easy. This past Saturday, while enjoying time in her foster family’s yard, she suffered a setback. A vet visit and X-rays revealed she had dislocated her hip. Despite the vet’s best efforts, they couldn’t put it back into place. She now faces a specialist visit today to determine the best course of action.

Best case scenario: Treatment to restore her hip and physical rehabilitation.
Worst case scenario: Surgery, extensive recovery, and additional rehabilitation costs.

On this Giving Tuesday, we’re asking for your help to cover Ariana’s medical expenses and give her the second chance she deserves. Every dollar helps, and if donating isn’t possible, simply liking, sharing, and commenting on this post can make a huge difference in spreading her story.

Together, we can ensure Ariana gets the care she needs and continue saving dogs like her. 🐾💖

📢 Donate Today and help Ariana on her road to recovery! 🐕‍🦺

🌟 Adoption Success Story: Kona (aka Kona Bean) 🌟

Sometimes, the best things happen by accident. Rosalie Reed wasn’t planning to adopt a dog, but fate—and a little nudge from her daughter—had other plans.

Rosalie’s youngest daughter, who had fostered a couple of puppies, mentioned that Washington German Shepherd Rescue needed immediate foster homes for a litter of puppies. Thinking it was a long shot, Rosalie applied, not expecting to be approved so quickly. With her experience caring for multiple dogs and her own pack—Sasha, a Dutch Shepherd, and Oso, a Goldendoodle—it was clear she was ready for the challenge.

Kona, lovingly nicknamed “Kona Bean,” arrived, and something magical happened. Sasha, usually reserved around other dogs outside of the family, instantly connected with Kona. It was as if she knew he belonged. The two played like old friends, breaking Sasha’s typical aloofness and warming Rosalie’s heart.

Adopting Kona was more than just adding another dog to the family. For Rosalie, it was fulfilling a dream she and her late husband shared—to have two Shepherds in their pack. With some adjustments and a solid routine, Kona, Sasha, and Oso have created a joyful and harmonious home together.

Rosalie believes in the power of adoption. “Adoption is a better choice to find a pet, especially when there are so many puppies and dogs in shelters.” Kona is proof of that—he has brought love, joy, and playful energy to a family that wasn’t expecting him but now can’t imagine life without him.

Thank you, Rosalie, for giving Kona his forever home and for reminding us of the magic of second chances. ❤️🐾

💖 Adoption Success Story: Pearl (FKA Iris) 💖

When Kayla lost her beloved Bijou, a 14-year-old GSD rescue, in April, she wasn’t planning to adopt another dog. But a lifetime of sharing her heart and home with German Shepherds made it clear she couldn’t live without their loving companionship. That’s when her search led her to Washington German Shepherd Rescue—and to Iris, now lovingly named Pearl.

Pearl embodies everything Kayla loves about the breed: intelligence, beauty, a dash of stubbornness, and fierce protectiveness. But it’s Pearl’s affectionate and playful personality that truly shines, making her impossible not to adore.

Pearl has settled into her new life beautifully. She enjoys snuggling, daily walks, being brushed, and playing with her toys—especially the Nerf Bone her amazing foster mom, Wanda, sent along with her. Pearl has also made new friends, both human and canine, and loves nothing more than spending time with her new family.

Kayla describes the adoption process as easy, fast, and seamless. Even though she lives in Portland, WGSR arranged to have Pearl transported to her home—a heartfelt team effort.

Kayla shares her gratitude:
"Everyone connected to WGSR was awesome. I’m especially grateful to Cara, Wanda the foster mom, and the lovely transport folks, Ned and Betty. Thank you all so much!"

It’s clear that Pearl and Kayla were meant to find each other. Pearl now has the loving home she deserves, and Kayla once again has the companionship of a remarkable German Shepherd by her side.

🐾 Congratulations, Kayla and Pearl! Thank you for choosing rescue. 🐾

Thank you Fosters

🌟 Gratitude for Our Amazing Fosters! 🐾 Many of our dogs and puppies come to us from overcrowded shelters who have to make impossible decisions about the animals in their care. We have not yet been able to pull this mom and her 10 puppies, but because of many fosters who have recently opened their homes, we are going to pick them up on Saturday! Your generosity, compassion, and willingness to open your hearts and homes have allowed us the space to rescue and provide care for this beautiful family in an environment where they can thrive and grow, free from the confines of a shelter environment. With boundless gratitude, Washington German Shepherd Rescue 🐾❤️ #rescuedog #rescuedogsofinstagram #gsd #gsdofinstagram

🐾🌟 Thank You, Splash Dog! 🌟🐾 Dear SplashDog, A huge shoutout from all of us at Washington German Shepherd Rescue to express our deepest gratitude for your amazing work in rehabilitating dogs. Your expertise in hydrotherapy and rehabilitation has transformed the lives of countless furry friends. From physical recovery to emotional well-being, your dedication has been a beacon of hope for dogs and their families alike. This is a video of two of our recent rescues to use your facility, both of whom are doing wonderful! Roxy(Athena) is recovering from her broken leg nicely and thanks to the generosity of our supporters she has been able to utilize water therapy to help with her rehab. The other is Angel, who again thanks to our fabulous supporters, was able to have surgery and rehabilitation. She now lives a full and engaging life with her new furever family. Thank you for being champions for our four-legged friends! With heartfelt appreciation, Washington German Shepherd Rescue 🐾❤️ #rescuedog #rescuedogsofinstagram #gsdofinstagram #gsd

🐾 Calling all animal lovers! 🐾 📢 Attention everyone, we need your help! 📢 🐶 Every day, we are contacted about taking in numerous dogs, each with their own story and their own journey. But what they all have in common is a need for love, care, and a safe place to call home while they wait for their forever families. 🏡 That's where you come in! By opening your heart and home to a foster dog, you're not only providing them with a temporary sanctuary, but you're also giving them the chance to thrive and prepare for their forever homes. 🌟 Fostering a dog is a rewarding experience like no other. You'll be amazed at the love and joy they bring into your life, and the difference you can make in theirs. 🌟 Currently we are in need of foster homes for 5 more dogs coming in this Friday. If you think you would be a good fit please fill out the foster application on our website. If you are unable to foster at this time, but still want to help, please consider sharing this post to your social media accounts. https://washingtongsd.org/foster/ #rescuedog #gsdofinstagram #rescuedogsofinstagram #gsd
