About Jaguar

  • Status: Adopted!
  • Species: Dog
  • Ear Type: Natural/Uncropped
Please welcome Jaguar or just Jag. He is a very beautiful, very energetic young male GSD. I think he is pure-bred as he seems to have all the characteristics of German Shepherds. Jaguar loves to be around people. When he came to us, he was very very nervous, and only warmed up to my husband as he is the one who picked him up from the shelter. But now he has warmed up to all of us. He is well behaved, but has that puppy still in him as he loves to chew things still. He doesnt seem to like toys because we have bought him a couple and he just seems to hide them. He doesnt seem to know any commands other than Come but that is something that a little training will fix. He is house-trained. He is good with children and seems to get along well with the dog behind us. He loves to be brushed and really loved belly rubs. He walks really well on a leash but likes to stick very close when walking. Jag will make a great addition to any family. Please check out our web site at www.shepherdrescue.org for more information about our dogs, our adoption process and to download an application. You must have a fully approved application on file prior to privately meeting our dogs. We do not have a facility, all our dogs are housed in private foster homes throughout MD/DC/VA areas. More information available on our web site, so please read through our web site before emailing questions, as it might save us both some time!

VGSR can only adopt dogs out in the Virginia/Maryland/DC area, no exceptions.

Although donations of all types are needed, our primary need is foster homes for our lovely dogs while they wait for their new family to find them. Fostering is an extremely rewarding experience. Vet care is paid for by our rescue, and we can even provide you with food. All YOU need to add is love and security.

The adoption process starts with the applicant filling out the adoption application. This can happen at any time during the process, before or after having met a GSD that might be the ideal companion. (It's an advantage to have a pre-approved application on file with VGSR. It should be stressed here that being pre-approved does not mean that any potential adopter can select any available dog at will and take that dog home immediately. VGSR will exercise its best judgement as to which GSD will be the best match for that specific adopter based on a number of qualifying criteria. Many GSDs that come to us are matched up with their new people very quickly because their people have been pre-approved.) The applicant then submits the application form with a non-refundable $10.00 processing fee. VGSR reviews the application, then schedules an interview and home visit during which a number of questions are asked and the home is reviewed to be sure there is a contained/safe yard, and to meet the family involved. Once the application is approved, the applicant is asked to submit a $250.00 donation to VGSR, and the adoption is completed.
