In a perfect world older folk like these beauties should not be seeking yet another home but sadly this is sometimes the case. At GSRE we try to make this as easy as we can for these golden oldies so PLEASE do not over look something so precious as an older, wiser, house trained, fully trained in kisses and cuddles, slightly older German Shepherd – you will be sorry if you miss out, believe me!

Why we do what we do

German Shepherd Rescue Elite was not only set up to help as many unwanted, abandoned and neglected German Shepherds as possible, but to also offer education to the general public on the responsibilities / pros / cons of owning a large working breed dog and to be able to offer help and advice so hopefully we can become the prevention for once instead of always being the cure.
