  Asha

  Asha is a stunning looking 2yr old female black Shepherd. She is very bright and needs to go to an experienced dog owner. If she is introduced to people properly and is allowed a few minutes to get to know new people she loves them and accepts them. However, she is reactive to new people that she does not know. Once she knows you, she remembers and acts like a big sook. She needs to learn to trust new people but we are amazed at how far she has come in such a short time. She likes other dogs and wants desperately to be chased. She would be best in a home where someone will have the time to work with her. She knows basic commands and is eager to learn. Oh, she LOVES to play with balls and toys and especially the ones that squeak.

  Hope

  Hope is a lovable 1 ½ yr old female shepherd mix who has come along way in the last few weeks. Hope was found wandering around the streets of Newfoundland scared and injured with a large gash on her head. Hope was flown here to N.Scotia arrived scared and shaking. During her first few days she would cower in the corner when we approached but would come and climb all over us if we sat down next to her. When we first walked her she was terrified of the big outdoors. Makes you wonder where she lived. Already, Hope is running and playing with the other dogs and learning how to be a dog. She will quickly roll over for a belly rub but is still apprehensive when meeting new people. She is a bright girl who would be a loving companion to anyone and would probably thrive with another dog in the home. Someone with dog experience and lots of patience is a must. If you think you can provide a loving home for Hope please call East Coast German Shepherd Rescue c/o Leah Parsons @ 435 9699 or E-Mail leah@nsgsrescue.com.

He appears to be very intelligent and will respond well to obedience training. He is totally house trained and can be left for short periods of time with no problems. He likes to chew so the Costco rawhides are handy. Dozer retrieves well and loves to play and run. Although the previous owner had concerns with him around their baby we have seen no aggresive behavior. He has adjusted well to the other dogs and sleeps with the children at night. Dozer needs a family who will have time to devote to his obedience training and they will be rewarded with his loving nature and a great family pet.

  Mr. Bones (German Shepherd/Husky/Lab X)

  Poor Mr. Bones is waiting patiently for his new permanent home. He has had a rough life and is only looking for someone to provide love and shelter. He is full of love but still waiting for someone to come along give him a chance. He is such a great guy, full of energy.

  7 – 8 yrs Male Neutered. Mr. Bones was flown from the Clarenville SPCA in Newfoundland and we are privileged to care for this sweet fellow until we can find a permanent home for him. He was seized from his former home due to neglect and he only weighed 38lbs when he first arrived (thus the name). He has gained 11lbs, has a new lease on life and he is very appreciative of all the special care he is receiving. He is sweet and loves everyone. He tends to jump up because of the excitement of people paying attention to him but this can easily be corrected. He does not mind cats and loves children, however, due to his jumpiness it may be best if Mr.Bones goes to a home with older children. This guy is a gem. If you would like to meet him, please call East Coast German Shepherd Rescue, Leah Parsons @ 435 9699 or E-Mail leah@nsgsrescue.com.

  Ryder

  Hi Leah,
I never thought I would have to send this kind of message, but I need to find somewhere to place a German Shepherd pup, Ryder, he is between 5-6 months old He likes our other dog (a lab) but is showing a lot of aggression to any other dogs he sees, he tries to eat my cats and while he likes my 5 year old son he is way too rough with him. This dog was never socialized properly and needs to go to an experienced dog owner as he has a strong "dogality" and needs an experienced person to work with him. He is still just a pup and with the right person, he would flourish. He is bright, loves the water and is eager to please. If you think you can provide a loving home for Ryder please call East Coast German Shepherd Rescue, Leah Parsons @ 435 9699 or E-Mail leah@nsgsrescue.com.

  Chasta

  Hello my name is Chasta and I am a lovable 5yr old German Shepherd whose family could no longer keep me due to allergies. I am a bit confused right now because I don't understand why I had to leave my home but still in good spirits, loving and sweet. I love my basketball and will have to bring this into my new home. I lived with a kitten and a couple of older children. A dog matched to me would probably work out . My foster mom says that she has tried me with a couple of dogs so far and I like them but will know more in a few days as I only arrived yesterday. I have an allergy to fleas and my skin is quite itchy right now but I am on medicine and will hopefully, find relief soon. The fleas are gone but the itch is still there due to a secondary infection. Give me a week or two and I will be back to my beautiful self again. If you think you can provide a loving home for Chasta please call East Coast German Shepherd Rescue, Leah Parsons @ 435 9699 or E-Mail leah@nsgsrescue.com.

  PIPER

  Hi my name is Piper I am a German Shepherd Dog / Australian Shepherd mix. Iturned 5 months old on May 2nd. I'm very much a puppy - and I love to learn new things. I would excel in obedience and would love to take classes. I already know how to sit and am working on down, come and how to walk nicely on leash. I'm fast too - my foster mom says I'd be a champion agility or flyball dog. I have lots of energy and I love to play with other dogs. My foster parents say I'm very bright and eager to learn. I'm not completely house trained but my accidents are few and far between - sometimes I even bark to let you know it's time go. I am crate trained and I often go in there to rest and play even when my foster parents are home (they always leave the door open for me when they're around). Sometimes I'm a bit nervous and bark around strange people but am getting used to meeting new people and this is improving. I'm looking for my forever family - my foster parents think I'm a really special girl - meet me and you'll love me too.
