National German Wirehaired Pointer Rescue Finding homes for GWP's, 1 paw at a time. www.Nationalgwprescue.com (NGWPR) was developed in order to put that belief into action.

The officers and members of the German Wirehaired Pointer Club of America (GWPCA) believe that every German Wirehaired Pointer (GWP) deserves an appropriate, supportive and loving home and the National GWP Rescue, Inc. Sponsored and supported by the GWPCA, the American Kennel Club (AKC) parent club of the breed, NGWPR is committed to helping desperate and neglected Wires whenever and where ever po

ssible. National GWP Rescue is a nationwide rescue program whose volunteers work tirelessly to provide funding, foster homes, medical care and training for GWPs found in shelters, animal control facilities and to those GWPs whose current owners are unable to provide a suitable situation. The unstable economy has placed a strain on many families and has contributed to the unusually high number of GWPs currently in rescue. Feeling the impact of the financial downturn, animal shelters and rescue organizations throughout the United States are under—funded and over—burdened by the number of dogs and cats in their care. Oftentimes these facilities contact NGWPR and request assistance. Working hand—in—hand with governmental and local shelters, the Wirehearts Foster Care Network, provides a safe and responsible home for any GWP in need. Placed with an experienced GWPCA member—foster, GWPs that have been neglected, untrained or have medical issues quickly blossom as they are readied for their "forever" homes.

UPDATE on Charlie our Ohio boy. I am attaching a video of Charlie. He has come so far and it’s such a lovely dog please there has to be the perfect home for him. Someone must be in a position to give this beautiful boy a new home.

Charlie located in Wellston Ohio- He came to us for training and rehoming because of his anxiety and he was not good with their toddler.

Charlie's has learned a lot, and is really an absolutely lovely dog. He loves people. He is comfortable laying in the yard chewing on a bone. He does need a family who is home most of the time or prepared to take him places. A fenced yard would be very important. A doggie door would be wonderful because then he would have access to go in and out whenever he wanted. If someone is home, he would be fine without the doggie door. Charlie is good in a crate now, but really enjoys his freedom to come and go if possible. He is great with people. He would be very happy as an only dog. He is not aggressive toward other dogs, but he tends to be pushy and honestly he would be very happy just living with his humans.
Charlie please call or text Suzanne 860-921-7827, or simply complete an application at nationalgwprescue.com

Rahu- S Windsor, CT
some of you may remember him as Rover. We picked him up in the spring. He had been seized it a cruelty case. He was found wandering with two embedded collars, grossly underweight and covered in f***s. Look at him now. He has turned into a beautiful dog. Rahu is two years old up-to-date on all shots, heartworm negative and neutered. He has been in foster with three other dogs and has done great. At five months old he suffered a serious break to a rear leg. He underwent two surgeries so we wanted to have an orthopedic check him to make sure he needed no orthopedic intervention. I’m happy to say that he is absolutely fine. He will always walk with a bit of a limp behind but he has no restrictions. He is super sweet and definitely ready for a new home. He would do great with a canine companion and fenced yard. No small children because he is a bit of a bull in China shop. If you can offer this boy a permanent home please call or text Suzanne 860-921-7827 or complete, an adoption application at nationalgwprescue.com

UPDATE-Coco located in Jasper, GA
her family is moving on August 16 and she must have a foster or a adopter by that date

Coco is a seven year old spayed female Drahthaar. Going back to her braider is not a possibility due to distance. She has lived with her family since she was 1 1/2 when they took her because she was gun shy. She is super sweet and loves people, young and old, once she has a few minutes to greet you and warm up. She is good with other dogs, both large and small. male and female. She must be fed alone because she can be possessive of her food with other dogs. She is well trained in obedience and has some hunting training. Coco is up-to-date on her shots and is only being rehomed because her family is moving and they do not allow dogs. I want to add that Coco is a big girl weighing in at about 90 pounds. we need a foster or a adopter that can pick her up. We have no time to look for transport.

ADOPTED by foster

Maple update, Maple was picked up this afternoon by her new Foster. Updates to follow.

located in Hutchinson, Minnesota.
Maple is one year and 10 months old up-to-date on all shots, heartworm negative however she is not spayed and is not yet microchipped.The rescue will cover the cost of spaying and will set up a microchip for her. Maple is the fallout of a divorce. Maple and her male labrador retriever, best friend remained with the husband when the couple divorced. He is now looking at working long hours and is unable to care for them appropriately so Maple was dropped at the shelter. She also lived with a cat and there were no signs of aggression. She knows basic commands and is crate trained . She is very upset, nervous, and barking in the kennel. If you would like to foster or foster to adopt Maple, please call or text Suzanne 860-921-7827. We would like to get her out of the shelter ASAP.

♥️ Kiki update ❤️

I received a call this morning from Maddie, Kiki’s foster mom. In the short time she has been in their home they have fallen in love with her. She has fit into their lifestyle easily and yesterday had her first boat trip. I am thrilled to report that they are adopting Kiki.

located in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Kiki is a two-year-old black spade female who was pulled from Shelter by her previous owner. She is currently in Foster as her owner had a toy poodle and Kiki is not good with small dogs. Her ideal home would be as an only dog or with a male dog of similar size to play with. She is super sweet and just needs a family to love her. If you can offer Kiki a home, please call or text Suzann 860-921-7827 or simply complete an application at nationalgwprescue.com.
