About Roo

  • Status: Adopted!
  • Species: Dog
  • Ear Type: Natural/Uncropped
Roo is one of Isis' pups, adopted from VGSR when she was 2 months old. Roo is now looking for a new home. She is a beautiful, GSD/husky mix, with 1 brown eye and 1 blue eye. She is used to a lot of attention - daily dog walks and trips to the dog park. She's well-socialized, well-disciplined, knows and follows her basic commands. As a puppy, she was fine with the cat, but hasn't been around any since then. She loves children, but may be a little too energetic for small ones. She is a genuinely friendly and good-hearted dog with a lot of energy and playfulness. She will need companionship - a home with a big yard where someone is there most of the time or another dog to play with and keep her company.

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 $200.00 donation to VGSR, and the adoption is completed.
