A Tribute to the German Shepherd
For those unsung heroes around the world who Rescue, Respond, Serve or Protect -- a tribute to First Responders, Military, SAR, Service/Therapy & Dog Rescue groups.
GSD Rescue of Central Colorado is an all volunteer organization whose members are passionate
about German Shepherd Dogs. Homeless, lost, unwanted, inconvenient....our efforts are focused
on helping these GSDs who, through no fault of their own, find themselves in need and without
families to love. A
private non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to:
-
 The
establishment & coordination of a network of foster homes in Central
Colorado to ensure comfort & assistance to all German Shepherd Dogs in need.
- To adopt companion animals into loving forever homes.
- Evaluation of temperament, beginning basic training, medical care, spay/neuter
and all appropriate vaccinations are provided for all adoptable dogs.
- To advance responsible programs to reunite lost pets with
their owners, including discounted micro chipping.
- To encourage and strengthen the human/animal bond with low
cost or complimentary obedience training and behavioral
advice that focus on the needs of both
people and animals.
- To create lasting and comprehensive change in human
behavior toward animals through education about responsible
pet ownership, including the spaying & neutering of
pets, and about humane & respectful treatment of all
animals.
To Adopt A Dog from our organization, the first step is completing an
adoption application. Everyone must do so before an appointment is made to
meet the dogs. If you can provide a temporary foster home for
a dog waiting for their forever home, we need you! Please fill out the foster
home questionnaire.
When each dog leaves our care, it is our goal that they go to a home where they are
loved as a member of the family, a home where they will be well cared for and 
where they will receive the proper mental and physical exercise as well as the daily interaction
and affection that they need.
Did you know?
Basic obedience training is a large part of welcoming your new rescue dog into
your family. Training of any sort strengthens and reinforces communication
skills between you, forming a very special relationship that will last a
lifetime. Our adoptive families are strongly encouraged to pursue
activities such as agility, competition obedience, rally, or flyball among
other available dog sports.
