Foster homes with experienced GSD owners needed urgently! Many of the dogs we are asked to help have issues. Could you foster a dog and help it overcome some of its problems? Please get in touch if you can offer a foster home.
Volunteers needed! Could you help with home-checks, assessments, transportation or fund raising?

Training Your Best Friend We have been contacted by David Dee, author of a training manual that includes some of the secrets of "dog whispering" (or "dog listening" as some people call it). We believe this method of training can make a substantial contribution to the control of a dog especially where owners are having difficulties.
David is a UK based trainer. His manual costs $19 and has a 60 day money back guarantee. The rescue receives a donation for every copy sold via our website.
