Southeast German Shepherd Rescue

Welcome to Southeast German Shepherd Rescue!

Southeast German Shepherd Rescue was founded in 2010 to save German Shepherd Dogs from abuse, abandonment, and high kill shelters. SGSR is a non-profit organization that wouldn’t exist without the compassion and dedication of volunteers determined to help Rescue, Rehab, and Rehome this noble breed.

SGSR operates primarily in North Carolina, Virginia and Maryland. We are committed to assisting German Shepherd Dog (GSD) rescue efforts throughout the Southeast and one of our goals is to expand our foster networks throughout the southeastern United States.

Our 100% volunteer organization is committed to rescuing displaced, neglected, or unwanted GSDs from high kill shelters and unfit homes; rehabilitating them with proper medical care, nourishment, and socialization; and rehoming them into caring and responsible forever homes where they are able to thrive as alert, loving, and loyal family members.
It takes a village!

…and we couldn’t do the amazing work we do without our village of dedicated volunteers, fosters, transporters, coordinators, board members, adopters AND fans! Join our village by following us on www.facebook.com/southeastgsdrescue. We frequently post requests for help with transport, events, fostering, or donations of specific items of desperate need. Share our photos and updates to help us find homes for our amazing dogs. Read more about our programs and what you can do to help below. We love our village!
