Welcome to GSGSR
About Us
Welcome to the Garden State German Shepherd Rescue web site. We are a non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to rescuing and rehoming German Shepherd Dogs. We are a full service rescue and referral organization serving New Jersey, parts of Delaware Valley, parts of Staten Island, and parts of Rockland County.
GSGSR foster dogs are rescued from shelters and pounds in New Jersey where most were facing euthanasia. Once in our program our dogs receive all necessary medical attention, which can range from updating vaccinations, spay/neutering, to more intensive surgical care if necessary. We also provide an owner referral service, where GSGSR works with the current owner to provide a new and loving home for their German Shepherd.

Tresa - Retired Service Dog - Adopted Tresa is a beautiful former service dog who has just entered our foster program. She was originally in The Seeing Eye program until 2007. After she retired,
she continued to use her service skills on an estate with her new owners, an elderly couple. When they passed away Tresa continued to live at her home while the property manager took care of her for two years until the estate recently
came up for sale. |
If you would like to help us help German Shepherds, we are always in need of volunteers. Foster homes are especially needed, but if you can't foster there are many other volunteer opportunities that require less time commitments.
Please visit our Volunteer page for more information.
Donations are gratefully accepted.
The adoption fees that we collect help to defray our expenses for veterinary care but do not cover the amount spent on each dog. Our income is derived from adoption fees, donations and fund raising activities; all of which goes to care for the dogs. We are a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization.
