Dixie is a gorgeous sable German Shepherd with a lovely personality. She is a typical GSD - confident, energetic, and loves life. She gets along with other dogs but is neither submissive nor dominant. She won't start anything but if another dog does, she probably would not back down. Dixie's story is a sad one. She was an owner dump in southern Missouri, a victim of uncaring owners who were tired of the responsbility of a dog. She was dumped at a rural pound, which in turn sent her to another pound and paid $30 to have her gassed to death! When we were contacted, Dixie was about to go to the gas chamber.
Dixie had excellent manners on the 3 hour ride from the gas chamber to rescue. She rode with a strange dog and only wanted to look at the window, jumping into the front seat at any stop. She loves car rides, does pretty well on a leash, and will be easily trained as she seems very smart.
Dixie is about 2 yrs old and is fully vetted. She is currently in boarding.


Dixie's adoption fee is $300. For an explanation of our fees, policies, and what vetting is covered, please visit us at: www.mogsrescue.petfinder.com.

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.
