Libby

Libby is brand new and we’re getting to know her better.

We received a call from a previous adopter with an urgent situation. Her neighbor was abusing his beautiful shepherd, Libby. Poor Libby was kept in a very small dog run 24/7 while other family dogs were free to roam the backyard. Neighbors witnessed children throwing rocks at Libby, and also heard Libby’s cries when her owner hit her more than once. When Libby’s owner was approached by the neighbors and realized that his abusive behavior had been discovered, he agreed to give her up.

Libby is now in a foster home and doing very well. She is loving and happy, she gets along with other dogs and frequents the dog park with her foster sister.

If you would like to meet her, please fill out the on-line application.

Adoption Application If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, you may submit an application online or via fax. If you choose to send a fax, please download the Adoption Application here in PDF format; fill it out and sign it. You can fax it to us at 714-773-9430.

Home Visit Prior to any dog going home, we do require a home visit to ensure that your environment is safe and secure. Once your home has been approved, the adoption can move forward.

Adoption Donation In light of the rising vet care costs associated with Giardia tests and boarding at vets, we are raising our adoption donation for adult GSDs to $395.00 starting on July 1, 2021

The adoption donations for other dogs will remain the same — $475.00 for purebred puppies, $375 for mixed puppies. (On a case by case basis, e.g. senior for senior, we will place a senior for $275.00 with a senior.)

This donation is tax-deductible as allowed by law and helps to offset the costs that we have incurred for the dog’s care and housing during his or her stay with our group. The minimum adoption donation does not entirely cover the investments that we have made in the dogs, so if you are in a position to give more, we would be honored to receive your additional donation. All adoption donations go directly toward the needs of our dogs.

All dogs adopted through GSROC are spayed or neutered, current on their vaccines and de-wormed. Because the minimum Adoption Donation rarely covers the costs associated with each dog, we ask that adopters who are in a position to give additional funds do so at their discretion.
