Minnie found herself in a scary shelter facing a grim end. The shelter staff were so impressed with her friendly personality, they contacted us in hopes we could save her. Once she arrived, we could see right away what all the excitement was about: This girl is a gem!
Minnie is cute, bubbly and full of energy. She likes to make friends, she approaches with tail wagging and a happy sparkle in her eye, and she is a master at play wrestling! She plays well with other dogs and we believe she could handle a home with a cat as well. If you’re looking for the heart and intelligence of a German Shepherd in a compact body, Minnie is your girl for sure!
3/8/2014 UPDATE:
One day she was bouncing around like a silly girl, the next day she refused to eat. Since this was so out of character for Minnie, our volunteers acted quickly to get her to the vet. She has aspiration pneumonia, usually developed from ingesting food down the windpipe by accident. Minnie is expected to make a full recovery, however she remains hospitalized as she recovers. Can you help with a donation toward her ongoing medical care?
Minnie is a petite girl, the perfect size for a condo or townhome. If you would like to meet Minnie, please complete the online application and an adoption counselor will contact you.

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.
