Update 16 July 2019 Duke is a healthy, happy and large dog. His weight has settled in at 118 lbs.He eats 4 cups of food twice a day. Daily walks and lots of time in the yard playing with his favorite balls. Helen has always been alpha and our dogs through the years have all seemed attached to her. Duke decided to make me his alpha and is attached to my hip. Since Helen works from home and will be retiring next year much of Duke's time is spent with me since I'm retired. He is very loving to...

“She passed with flying colors! She is so cute, isn't she?” You’re never too old to learn and achieve great things. Just ask GSRNE'S Elsa who just passed the CGC test and has received her Canine a good Citizen certificate at 7.5 years old.  (YAY !!) Congratulations to Elsa and her mom, Nancy!!

Update on 05/01/2018 Riley passed her puppy AKC test, and is starting a 6 week course for her manners training this week. Adopted on 3/25/2018 Bio Riley came to GSRNE after her first family realized that, given their already very busy lives, caring for a young puppy was too much work. Four-month old Riley, however, immediately found a home with her foster family and her brother, Ramble, another GSRNE rescue. Riley is energetic, playful, and ready for anything—a game of fetch, a car ride,...

Oliver was adopted by Ranu and Lindsey and their family in 2018 when he was about two years old.  When their last dog died, they thought about taking a break from dogs for a while---that lasted about a month when they decided their house really was too empty without a dog. Ranu had had a German Shepherd mix earlier in life, and he loved that loyal and loving nature of German Shepherds, so he began searching the web to look for another.  Oliver was the second dog he saw and luck was on his...

I should have contacted you folks earlier than this . Time does have a way of going bye doesn’t it. I hope your all doing well and keeping up the good works that you do. So many good dogs and people out there still need to connect. Is it me or are a lot of people looking for that great companionship that only a good dog can bring. I hear a lot of friends and family up here looking for a dog to bring into their home. Their finally seeing what we’ve known all along. And of course nothing...

Update on 8/29/2017: I think we just passed the 3 month mark with Chance and he's become such an integral part of our lives, we can't remember what things were like without him.  He has gotten better being around men and boys and he is devoted to our boys, who cherish him.  Our younger son, Sam, has even taught him new trick - High 5. We have settled into a routine with a couple daily walks, play time outside with his beloved Jolly Ball, and hang out time with us.  We've gone to the local...

Update on 8/18/2017: Wolfgang's Mom says- "It is hard to put into words how much Wolfgang has affected my family.  He is the star of our show.  His energy keeps us moving, whether it's playing fetch, taking walks or discovering new things in the backyard with us, where he prefers to be.  We still can't get him in the pool, though.  He'll venture to the first step and that's it.  But to keep him cool outside, the hose always serves its purpose.  We are endlessly amused watching Wolfgang...

Update on 12/28/2016: Looks like Lion is getting spoiled at his forever home. 🙂 Lion's Mom says "He's a ham but hard to get any active pictures of him as he just looks like a black blur on the screen. So his best shots are at bedtime."                                 Adopted on 1/29/2017: Bio: We met Lion when he was 8 months old, after he had been left at a shelter.  Someone had bred his parents and found they...

Merry Christmas from Crystal and myself! It has been over five years now and Crystal is almost twelve years old. Time does go by fast. Chrystal is slowing down and a little lame but we are still moving. She has been a great dog and never leaves my side 24/7.  I hope things are good for all of you. Thanks for the great you all do with the...

Update on 11/4/2018 We just heard from Chloe’s adopters and we’re thrilled to hear that her life has been one big adventure! “We cannot thank GSRNE enough for bringing Chloe into our lives.  She is just the most wonderful dog anyone could ever want.  She goes everywhere with us.  We recently took her on a very long road trip - 7,000 miles !!!   Our main destination was Best Friends Animal Sanctuary where Chloe was a participant in the Strut Your Mutt fund raiser.  We explored all over...
