Review for Shari’s Shepherd Sanctuary, Las Vegas, NV, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I found Shari's Shepherd Sanctuary (GSD Rescue) online after my German Shepherd Edgar passed away from cancer in May 2024. Not only did the rescue have several beautiful dogs available for adoption that I thought might be a good fit for my family, I thought I might like to volunteer with the group.

I completed the online adoption application, which was thorough but not overbearing - and I mentioned that I was interested in volunteering as well. I received a nice email reply immediately and we set up a time for me to go meet the leaders of the group and some of the available dogs. Everyone was super friendly, and they explained how their nonprofit operates (etc). I felt welcomed and "at home" right away, and I knew this was a group that I would want to support - not only by adopting a Shepherd from them - but by volunteering my time to help them help more GSDs in need.

The rescue had a straightforward adoption process and made sure that we could carefully introduce "Goose" to our current dog Asher on neutral territory first, and allow the dogs to get to know each other a bit. Everything went well and we officially adopted Goose in early June 2024; he is a gem and we love him so much!

The rescue volunteers made the process easy and kept in close contact, to answer any questions we might have and help Goose settle in with our family. And in the following weeks I started volunteering with the group and have been very impressed with their dedication and devotion to this wonderful breed. They are an enthusiastic, kind bunch of humans that I'm now pleased to call my friends.

I adopted an older, "senior" dog from them in November 2015. Wonderful rescue organization with very kind, helpful volunteers.
