About Gina (in 3.16)

GINA is one of those once-in-a-decade dogs!  Gorgeous, sweet to the core, loves life/people/animals, and totally easy to get along with for everyone.  The only one who's been irritated with her so far are several older dogs who just didn't want to deal with all that puppy energy she has!  But even when chastised, she was respectful and backed off.

Gina was a stray at a shelter and was both filthy and starving.  We cleaned her up and got some good food in her, and she lit up like a Christmas tree -- loving life and everyone/everything in it.  Her sweetness and joy in life seem to shine through, and other animals as well as people sense it. 

OVERALL:  Gina is a heart dog, the find of a lifetime.  Are YOU the one extraordinary family who will have her join your life?  If you think so, apply now!


DOGS:
                    Yes!  MUST HAVE at least one doggie buddy of approximately her own size and energy level to play with.
CATS:
                     Yes.  She does well with the older cat in her foster home
KIDS:
                     Yes.  Wonderful with kids.
IDEAL FAMILY:
     An active family who will spend the time DAILY to engage in stimulating mental and physical exercise, and also take the time to train her.  A securely fenced yard is STRONGLY preferred.  She must have at least one doggie playmate, and would love some kids of her own.


If you're looking for a gorgeous, young, trainable German Shepherd
who will love you forever,
GINA may be your ideal family member!


GINA's ADOPTION FEE:   $350
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.
