Adopt a German Shepherd Dog (medium coat)

LIBBY was saved from a high kill shelter in Texas, where dogs generally have just 3 days to be saved before they are killed for space. LIBBY is spayed, core vaccines, rabies, de-wormed, heartworm tested negative and micro-chipped. She has an estimated date of birth of 30 June 2016 and weighs around 50.00 pound. She has been listed as a German Shepherd.  We have no way of knowing the exact breed, so it is up to individuals to decide what breed they think is most likely.




LIBBY is extremely skin and has bad skin, which she is on a good grain-free diet, coconut oil and other skin and immune support supplements to help her recovery. 

LIBBY is currently with her foster family in Texas until transport to the rescue in Sebec, Maine at the end of February 2018. This is what her foster family said about her.


LIBBY: Very sweet and very social and loves to play with any dog that will play with her. She a talker and a ton of fun. She likes to know where I am at all times too. Loyal. She is house trained with no accidents or chewing in the house. She rides great in the car and walks ok on a leash!




?We do not recommend dog parks for several weeks, if not months, it is so very important for families and dogs to form a strong bond and get to know each other before exposing them to the potential dangers of dog parks. Although all GaDaH dogs are very well socialized with other dogs, lots of other dogs have not had the benefit of this socialization and do not always know how to play and act with other dogs. You also do not know the control the other families have over their dogs and you should always have a good recall for your adopted dog before going to dog parks.




LIBBY  is available for adoption from Give a Dog a Home, German Shepherd Dog Rescue for an adoption fee of $550.




This fee is not negotiable and is used to cover the rescue costs of pulling, vetting, health certificate, transport from Texas to Maine, monthly preventatives, supplements, food and anything else that is needed.
