Adopt a Dog

Washington German Shepherd Rescue is dedicated to placing neglected, abandoned, and unwanted German Shepherd Dogs into loving, permanent, homes.

Adoptions are not done on a first-come, first-serve basis. Washington German Shepherd Rescue is the companion animal’s advocate and will select the most suitable home for the unique needs of each individual dog in our care. We reserve the right to refuse service and adoption without explanation.

Our hours are by appointment only. If we find you to be a good match for one of our rescue animals and our adoption program, we will contact you within 72 hours.  We must review your application before an appointment is scheduled–no exceptions.

If you would like to adopt a dog of ours, please start by completing our application form.  We look forward to working with you.

Your donations go towards feeding and caring for the dogs. Please consider making a donation by clicking here.

Application for adoption

Your application will help us determine the best possible match between you and one of our dogs. Please complete the application form in detail.  If you are having difficulty submitting your application, please contact us at [email protected]

NOTE: You only need to submit one application. If we determine that you are not a good fit for a particular dog, but you would like to be considered for another dog in the future, please email us at that time.

NOTE: We require all adopters to have a fully fenced yard. If this is not you, we are sorry we can not serve you at this point in time.
