We have been **owned** by German Shepherds most of our life, and breeding since 1997. We are a Nebraska State licensed and inspected, AKC inspected, and veterinarian inspected facility. Our primary breeding goal is to produce the Ultimate Companion that will thrive in any environment, but can also do well in the show ring; work in therapy, service, and some sports. Health, temperament are our top priorities. We are primarily focused on the German Showlines with many of our dogs imported from Germany.

German breeding restrictions have been in place for generations, and we feel this gives us a more stable, healthier dog. We do extensive health testing prior to breeding to ensure our puppies have a long healthy life. We live on 10 acres in the country surrounded by prairie for miles. Our four legged furbabies have allot of room to just be dogs. They are all housebroken and spend allot of time in the house with us on the furniture, on our laps, and on our bed. Every day is given to our dogs, and we have wrapped our life around them. Our kids are grown and gone, and our furkids are now our children. Our beautiful puppies are born in the house, in our kitchen area where they become accustomed to allot of noise like the telephone, weather alert radio, pots & pans banging, and the busy atmosphere of the kitchen environment. They are loved and played with daily. They get individual time and spend allot of time on our lap in the evening in front of the TV. At about 4 wks of age when they become more adventurous and begin to escape the whelping pen's confinements, they are moved to the kennel's puppy area.

This is an indoor/outdoor area where they have more room to run, play, and get used to outside noises and smells. This also begins the first stages of house training as they learn to go outside to potty. They spend allot of time in the yard playing, investigating, and chasing pinecones. We go for walks where they are introduced to many different sites, smells, and surfaces. As time allows we provide photos and videos of the pups as the grow and develop. Our puppies are important to us and we take finding them a quality home very seriously.

If your new to the German Shepherd Breed, please do your research to make sure a GSD is for you. Their remarkable intelligence is eerie at times. They are far above the other breeds Ive seen. They need exercise exercise exercise and daily activities to keep them stimulated.

Puppy classes and basic obedience training work well to socialize and give them something to do. The GSD Breed bonds with its family very tightly which makes its extremely important to be with the family. They do not thrive in environments where they spend allot of time alone. They can be very destructive if left to their own devices. They are also known as German Shedders for a reason. With this said, they are the most intelligent, loyal of all the breeds.

Reviews for Give a Dog a Home, German Shepherd Dog Rescue

1 person found this review helpful We have adopted a beautiful and healthy dog 2 years ago from this rescue. Rescue saved her while she was on kill list and had given couple hours to live. She had received then much needed medical treatment that cost the rescue thousands of dollars. She was and is a very healthy dog. This rescue deserves excellent reviews for what has done to save so many dogs over the past 5 years. Please do not pay attention to those negative comment, that is written by one person under different names. All that come from this place are lies and unhealthy mutts. Unsocialized, not worthy of being in a home once being at this place. She knows the behavior of these dogs before they are sent to a home refuses to be truthful with public. The dog that we adopted was physically healthy. Unfortunately, she had been severely traumatized, presumably before she went to the rescue. More unfortunately, the extent of the dog's needs were not shared. The dog is absolutely phobic about the leash.

This is a very significant problem in a house without a fenced in yard. It is unclear whether the dog is actually house trained (possibly, but since she runs if she goes outside and she can't be leashed, it's hard to tell). The dog is not socialized to and is fearful of people. The fear and lack of interest in people is not changing. I can't imagine how anyone would think that this dog could be a pet as she simply does not respond to human attention. The person adopting the dog is experienced with dogs, competent and willing to invest the time to train the dog in typical new pet behaviour: don't get on the furniture, this is how to walk on the leash, sit, come when called etc. This dog needs significant at home professional intervention which could not have been unknown to the rescue. The local shelter would NEVER adopt out a dog like this. Here's my beautiful dog I got. This is what she looked like the day I picked her up from GaDaH. Lacy has healed from the dog fight. Her ear will never grow back but, bounces around a happy girl these days.

Glad we could save her. 2 people found this review helpful Adopted a dog from this rescue 2 yrs ago. The 1st year with her was a nightmare. I could go into sordid details I want people to know-these dogs are not what your being told they are. We had attack-bite issues. Aggression so bad we needed a behaviorist help. It all came down to her pack treatment. My dog was there over a year and ruined by one mentally deranged female. How would you describe the help you got from this organization? How likely are you to recommend this organization to a friend? How do you feel you were treated by this organization? When was your last experience with this nonprofit? 4 people found this review helpful As someone who lives not as a direct neighbor but close to this rescue I would like to give my opinion. I hear dogs cry out in pain. Dog's fighting amongst one another daily without anyone to stop them. Dogs barking all hours day or night, no matter how cold it is they're out.

We walk on the warm days, the smell is extraordinarily breath taking. You can hear her screaming, swearing at the dogs. Calling them names I wouldn't call an enemy much less an animal that's supposed to be fearful or has been beat or abused. Often times the dogs are loose running through yards. They have killed livestock. She has been seen chasing them down the main road with them just ahead of her SUV driving like a mad woman. What if the dog stumbles? It would be dead! 3 people found this review helpful I adopted our dog from GaDaH in December 2015. The response from the rescue was prompt and all my references on my application were called and checked. Jenny facilitated a transport for my dog to Connecticut (which cut my trip in half) with another adoptive family. While arranging the transport, I received prompt communication from both Jenny and the transporting family. The family had only kind words regarding the rescue (they adopted and were transporting there dog as well directly from the rescue) and refused to take money for transporting our pup.

The pup was checked out by our vet and found to be in great health and right on track. His personality and behavior (and any issues regarding both) were exactly as stated in his description for adoption. Other than the adoption fee I paid no additional money and have never been directly asked to donate to the rescue. I donated the transport money of my own accord for food for the dogs since the kind family refused to take it. Our dog is thriving and based on my personal experience was taken care of at the rescue. This rescue goes above and beyond. Jenny has rehabilitated some of the toughest cases. There are a few, a very few, people who have decided to target this rescue and cause problems. Their opinions are unfounded. The success stories of this rescue saving dogs, placing them with forever families and bringing joy and happiness are abundant. 5 people found this review helpful Anyone giving a bad review about this rescue has never been there or has a personal Grudge against Jenny.

I volunteer often and all I see is a lot of healthy dogs living together while waiting for their forever home. The dogs that come to Jenny sick, skinny, Or any health issue are taken to the local vet clinic where they get excellent care. There is definitely no abuse and yes some shelter dogs come to her scared and fearful, we work with those dogs on their terms to bring them around to become loving dogs. Jenny is saving dogs from kill shelters, these dogs are from abusive homes , the streets or who knows what conditions, anyone with any intelligence would know it was going to take time and effort to make them into family pets. Jenny is in this to save dogs, if you lived it you would know there is no money in it and the success comes from the generosity of those of us that love the dogs. Adoption is all about money not about dogs. You never deal with Jenny until you actually puck up your dog that's what I recently found out. I backed out of our process when we did start dealing with Jenny herself, the way she pushed us for donations, wanting family to donate.
