More Information:

NASH is a big, gentle, sweet, fortunate boy!  Abandoned in southern MO, he's now safe and warm in a wonderful foster home where he's enjoying lazy naps on the couch!!!

NASH had many advocates -- several different rescues and an animal control officer -- pulling for him.  When he got off the chain, it turned out he was heartworm positive.  He has been treated and is in great health.  This boy is headed for the good life!!!!!  And no one deserves it more than a former chained dog like NASH.
 
We've tested NASH twice with other dogs and he does fine. His initial reaction to cats is disinterest, though he would like to get friendlier with his foster kitty than she wants him to!  He does well on leash and is moderate energy.  He is currently in foster care with a small child and seems to love kids.  He loves humans and is fine with strangers.  
 
NASH has taken quickly to the good life in his foster home, and they're absolutely nuts about him.  He's calm, sweet, gorgeous and an all-around nice boy.  He's going to make someone a big sweetheart of a companion. 

Nash’s adoption fee is $300.00.

This fee covers a portion of the vet and boarding expenses for the dogs we save.  It includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies, distemper/parvo and bordatella vaccinations, deworming and microchip.

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.
