My Rescue
Login to Remember your Favorite Animals and Breeds!

German Shepherd dogs, as well as the other herding breeds that we have in rescue, are highly active, energetic, working breeds. They require considerable vetting, exercise, socialization, training, leadership and mental stimuli in order to be well-adjusted, well-balanced, and well-mannered dogs. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings in order to work on his/her leash skills, manners, and social skills. These breeds make great additions to active families who will pamper them, but who will also work with them, as they are smart dogs who need leadership, structure, plenty of activity and mental stimulation. 

If you are new to German Shepherds (and other herding breeds), please research the breed to make sure this is the dog for you. We ask that you consider the time and financial commitment that your German Shepherd (or other herding breed) dog will require before applying for one. Please review the section on our website (www.heartlandgsrescue.org) "Is a HUGS Dog Right for You?" for additional information.

About Rio *Puppy* Valentina's Litter. New name: Beau

  • Status: Adopted!
  • Adoption Fee: $375
  • Species: Dog
  • Current Age: 7 Years 6 Months (best estimate)

Rio is an adorable 8 week-old boy  who was rescued from a reservation in SD. Reservation dogs lead a very hard life, with no shelter, little food, and no vet care. Many of them die young on the Reservation, due to accidents, deprivation, and/or sickness among other causes. In fact, Rio arrived with missing fur and a large scab on his little head! Luckily, it is now practically healed, and fur should start growing back very soon :)

Rio is a typical puppy. He is very active and loves to play. He's also super sweet and loves to be around people. Rio loves his food, squeaky toys, and being petted. He has just started potty-training and is doing well. Rio is very smart. He seems to learn and figure out new things quickly! He likes to sit by the vents in the car, and and on top on the vents in the house :). Rio enjoys being around other dogs, big and small. He is an adorable baby!

Like all German Shepherd and German Shepherd mix puppies, Rio will need training, consistency, boundaries, and lots of activity and socialization, in order to become a well-balanced, well-behaved dog.

Reminder: Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember that, you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to work on his/her leash skills, manners, and social skills. 

Please review the information in the "About Us", "Important Considerations" and "Adopt" sections on our website menu, as it contains useful information about the breed, adoption fees, the adoption process and our requirements, and how meeting the dogs works.
