Fourth of July Can Be A Dud For Pets!

INDEPENDENCE Day is not a time of celebration for our pets. The fireworks that we humans find so thrilling can drive pets, especially dogs, into a state of utter panic. The explosions (even miles away), the high-pitched swoosh of rockets climbing into the sky, the flashes of light -- these can all be overwhelming sensory assaults. [more]

German Shepherd Rescue of New England, Inc. (GSRNE) is an all  volunteer,  501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to providing veterinary care, evaluation & adoptive homes for the countless numbers of German Shepherd Dogs who are left in pounds to await uncertain fate, are owner surrenders (divorce, death, etc.), or are from abuse or neglect situations.  We help provide a safe harbor for German Shepherds that might otherwise be destroyed.

Each dog applying to our program is evaluated for temperament and behavioral information.   All accepted dogs are spayed or neutered, updated on vaccinations, and receive essential medical care.  Then the dogs are placed into GSRNE foster homes, while they await new homes.  Finally, each dog is carefully placed in a loving home with a family that matches that dog's temperament, activity level and needs.

German Shepherd Rescue of New England, Inc., (GSRNE) provides rescue services for German Shepherd Dogs (GSDs) who are abandoned, neglected, or left in pounds to await uncertain fate. Rescue services are also provided to GSDs who are in acute need of placement due to changing family circumstances such as divorce, family illness, allergies, relocation to a “No Dogs Allowed" situation, or economic hardship. Other German Shepherd Dogs may be given up to Rescue because of behavior problems due to lack of, or poor, care and training. GSRNE foster homes work to address those issues.

We provide foster services for all dogs coming into GSRNE. All German Shepherd Dogs admitted to Rescue are given a thorough physical examination, receive necessary medical treatment, and are neutered or spayed, immunized, and have a fecal exam for parasites and a heartworm test performed, before placement. We treat any illness we know of/can treat, before placement. We observe each dog in a foster home setting for at least a month for temperament and behavior issues before attempting to place that dog.
