About Jackson

Jackson is absolutely adorable - just look at that silly grin on his face!  He was so happy someone cared enough to take his picture, he just couldn't help himself and that grin slipped out.  And that pretty much describes Jackson - he's enjoying life soooooo much these days that he's a grinning fool ... !

Jackson was a stray in a big city shelter, but they were full and called us.  Of course we said yes!  This boy may be all grown up, but he's got a lot of life and a lot of living to do.   He's loving the comfort of being an inside dog, something he clearly never knew before.  He loves hanging out with his foster mom and resident cat, getting his ears rubbed, and much more.  He's a very loving guy and will be your best bud if you let him.

Jackson was heartworm positive but is being treated for that and doing fine.


DOGS:                     Yes, appears to do well.  Recommend no dominant dogs.
CATS:                      Unknown, would have to be tested
KIDS:                      Unknown, would have to be tested.
IDEAL FAMILY:       A moderately active family with a securely fenced yard and lots of love and comfort to give this sweet boy. 


If you're looking for an all-grown-up German Shepherd
who will love you forever and is past the crazy-kid stage,
JACKSON may be your ideal family member!


JACKSON's ADOPTION FEE:   $300
This fee covers only part of what we spend to vet, board and rehab the dogs we save. On average we spend over $450 on each dog. We made a decision to keep our adoption fee at the 2005 level even though vet prices have doubled and tripled since then. We are constantly fundraising to cover the deficit. At minimum, your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming, monthly heartworm and flea preventives, and microchip. In many cases it also includes surgery and various types of vet treatment for standard issues such as hot spots, ear infections and so on.

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

  1. We're picky about our adopters. 
  2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
  3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
  4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
  5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
  6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
  7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
  8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
