COURTESY POSTINGS

Since Westside German Shepherd Rescue has not evaluated the Courtesy Dogs, we can offer no opinion regarding temperament, health or other salient issues, and we are not responsible for any placements. Since people sometimes forget to notify us, some of these dogs may already be adopted.

Marmaduke is an incredible 2 year old Great Dane mix. (possibly with German Shepherd and Aussie? - guessing) With his uniquely handsome looks, one blue and one brown eye and large size, he turns heads wherever he goes. He loves people and would like to be a lapdog, but at around 90-100 pounds, that's probably not likely to be appreciated by his owner. Or maybe they would love it? 'Duke' for short is sharing a yard with a couple of other dogs and they make the best of their time while waiting for their forever homes. He is neutered and up to date with shots. If you're interested in meeting Duke, please email to allydog2012@gmail.com

Luna is a gorgeous 5 year old sable German Shepherd. She is spayed, up to date with shots and microchipped. She is located in Berkeley, CA. For more info about this beautiful girl, please click on this link: HERE

Thunder is a goofy, fun loving, 2 year old purebred German Shepherd in perfect health. He has had a well-rounded upbringing in a loving home and has great obedience. He is an excellent adventure buddy and has lots of experience camping, swimming, and hiking. He loves to play ball and tug, and show off his tricks. He often joins a bike ride around the neighborhood and runs nicely alongside the bike. He lives to play in any form of water – pool, lake, river, ocean, garden hose, you name it. He has good food drive and is not a big barker. Thunder would do best with an active, outdoorsy family.  That said, he’s actually very low key around the house and lounges with the best of them. He is excellent in the crate when it’s time for downtime. He is still with his original owner and the only reason for rehoming is that he doesn't get along with the other dogs in the home. Will only adopt him to a home in which he’s the only dog. Adopters with prior GSD experience preferred.  Asking for a $200 adoption fee.  Thunder is neutered and all vaccines are current. Contact Jenny Dennis:  jenny@wetnosestraining.com


Poseidon “Po’Boy” is a 2.5- to 3-year-old German Shepherd cuddle bug. He is a resilient, loyal boy and LOVES squeaky plushee toys, string cheese, going for walks, and being with people. He will get on your lap and sleep if you let him! He has basic obedience training, is housebroken and is currently going through more training. He is a bit anxious due to lack of socialization before we rescued him and, as a result, does not like other animals.  We have a newborn at home and her constant crying is causing him stress that is not subsiding. We are heartbroken to rehome him and know he will thrive where he is the only animal and either no children or older children. We will set up his new home with everything - crate, toys, leash, etc. - and we will always be available for any questions. If you find that it’s no longer working out, we will be right there to help. Our goal is Poseidon’s thriving and will do everything in our power to bring that to life.  He is neutered and there is a small rehoming fee. Please contact Janel at  janelbyrne@gmail.com. We know his next people are out there and will love him as much as we do!


Look no further - Dakota the lovebug and protector is here! Dakota is a 6 year old German Shepherd with a big heart that loves walks/runs, chasing her ball and getting belly rubs from any and everyone. While female dogs and cats are not her friends, male dogs, small dogs and people could not be any closer to her heart. She knows sit and stay and has had some obedience training but could always use more (who couldn't?). Someone with an active lifestyle would be ideal for Dakota, whether it be hikes, runs, walks or even just car rides (which she also enjoys). Dakota is up to date on all of her vaccinations and is spayed. There is a rehome fee of $100. If you think Dakota would be a great addition to your home, please contact me @ jtoddb23@gmail.com.

Willow is a gorgeous 1-2 year old German Shepherd. Willow is with a wonderful foster family who has shown her how much fun being a dog can be. They have a black lab that she adores and she learned what a ball was and how to go up and down stairs. She spent a month at Canyon View Ranch being trained and knows basic commands very well. She’s totally house broken. She is incredible on leash and hikes off leash daily. She is crate trained and behaves well in the house. She needs to be properly introduced to new people, which is typical for this breed in general. She is spayed, up to date with shots and ready for her forever family. She would love another playful dog in her new home. For more info, please contact Kathryn @ kathrynreedretzer@gmail.com. There is a $100 adoption fee for Willow.

Walter is an incredible 2 year old Shepherd/Doberman mix (guess), or maybe Malinois/Doberman. He is very smart and always up for some fun. He loves people and dogs and doesn't have an aggressive bone in his body. Walter responds very well to training and can jump very high! Agility anyone? Walter is neutered, up to date on shots and ready for his forever home. For more info on him, please click HERE.

Margot is looking for a new home.  She is an 11-month-old German Shepherd/Malinois mix.  She knows several commands such as sit, shake and will roll over for belly rubs.  She is good with other dogs and great at the dog park.  She is eager to please and very social.  Her owner is a student who realized that her living situation does not allow her to give Margot the attention she deserves.  She is now being fostered with the parents and is located in Camarillo, CA.  Please help us find her a forever home!   Margot is spayed and has current vaccinations. There is a rehoming fee. Please contact Christine @ cwillingham16@yahoo.com if you are interested in meeting Awesome Margot!

Astro is a handsome 2 year old male German Shepherd - also known as Black Beauty. A super sweet boy, beware, you will get lots of hugs and lots of kisses! He's playful and cheeky and loves walks and playing with other dogs - medium and large. He's house trained and loves to learn new lessons -- he can sit, lay down, heel and is learning to stay. He gets along great with other dogs easily once they take a walk together. Astro was once a puppy who had a forever home where the new owner decided that no dogs would be allowed. His foster family has medical issues and he is being evicted again! Please help us find him another foster or forever home! Astro is neutered and has current vaccinations. There is a $100. rehoming fee. Please contact Karen @ karenmaish@yahoo.com if you are interested in meeting Awesome Astro! 

Gunner is a beautiful 5-year-old purebred German Shepherd. We are only re-homing Gunner due to financial burdens and are very sad at the prospect of losing him. Handsome Gunner loves hiking, going on runs, and playing fetch. He is both well behaved & obedience trained. Gunner knows all basic commands such as “sit”, “lay down”, “bed” and “here” plus walks well on leash. Gunner is good with people, male and female, plus good with kids! Gunner has a few traits that are very common to German Shepherds; he needs a home without cats and/or small dogs. He can be alpha with other dogs and protective of his pack; thus, he would do best as the only dog in the home. Someone with GSD experience would be ideal. Gunner is neutered & will receive all updated vaccinations shortly. There is a re-homing fee of $100.  If you are interested in Gunner, please email Rachael Rachmbulld@gmail.com
