Notes from All Shepherd Rescue

OTTO –

Otto came to All Shepherd Rescue when his owner developed medical issues and could no longer care for him. Despite the unexpected change in his young life, Otto is a sweet, gentle boy who is adjusting to the change in his life . It appears that neither Liesel or Otto were given the type of exposure to new sights and sounds that puppies need . They are extremely shy but gentle and sweet. We are working with them to help them become comfortable with us and show the typical playful antics of puppies . Patience and time are they key to helping these lovely pups become more confident and ready to explore their new life . They are not fear aggressive at all---just shy. If you would like to learn more about either , please email adoptions@allshepherdrescue.com

When applying to adopt one of our puppies, please remember :

Up to the age of 8 months old, puppies cannot be left alone for a standard 8-9 work day.

Arrangements will have to be in place for 4 hour intervals until the pups are at least 8 months old .

Having someone with them every 4 hours until they are older greatly facilitates the housebreaking process as well as assists with the general socialization of your pup !

If you are not yet approved to adopt from All Shepherd Rescue, please fill out our online application at www.allshepherdrescue.com. Our adoption fee is $350.00

What happens next

  1. Contact All Shepherd Rescue using the button. AdoptNearby does not take applications.
  2. They will send you their application or ask a few questions about your home.
  3. Most organizations arrange a meet, sometimes a home visit, then a small adoption fee that usually covers spay or neuter and vaccines. That fee is paid to All Shepherd Rescue, never to AdoptNearby.
  4. Read the dogs care guide so you arrive prepared.
