* FOSTER ME!   or   ADOPT ME! *

Location:             Kansas City, MO area
Age:                      approx. 5 yrs
Temperament:    big old bear of a guy, loves to be loved on, loves other dogs

BROCK was a walking skeleton with nails so long they curved all the way back and began to dig into his feet.  He was missing most of his hair.  This poor boy is a survivor of extreme neglect and almost died in a high kill rural pound.

But thanks to another rescuer who alerted us, and generously fostered him long enough to get him stable medically, BROCK now has a long and glorious life in front of him.

BROCK is a big old hunk of gorgeous German Shepherd.  He's a big bear who loves being loved on and cared for, and now knows humans can actually be nice.

BROCK is actually very gentle and very responsive to commands.  He may come galloping out of his kennel at first, but on command he quietly goes back and waits obediently. 

BROCK is an amazing dog -- you'll find it hard not to fall in love with him.

BROCK is now very healthy and ready for his forever home where he will get love by the buckets.  He doesn't want anymore of that crummy life-on-the-streets business.  Nosiree, this boy is ready for the good life.  He could still stand to gain a few pounds, but not many.

BROCK is great with other dogs and has been around both small and large dogs.  Cats are unknown.  He appears to be good with kids, though due to his large size toddlers are not recommended unless you understand that a large dog may occasionally knock over an unsuspecting toddler!

BROCK will need a serious refresher in housebreaking, as he's been boarded for some time and before that was living rough.  His house manners are not known (he's still in boarding), but we believe he will be easily trained.

Only one lucky family will have BROCK's love.

Is that YOU? 


BROCK's ADOPTION FEE:  $300.  This covers only part of what we spend on vet care and boarding.  It includes (at minimum) spay/neuter, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if necessary, heartworm and flea preventive while in our program, and microchip. 

TO APPLY:  go to "FORMS" on the left-hand menu and submit an Adoption Application.

Special Needs: LOTS of love!! This poor boy has been through the ringer.

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.
