Shepherd Rescue of BC (GSRBC) is presently funded entirely by
donations from individuals, adoption donations and our fundraising
efforts. We receive NO
government funding and are not eligible because we are breed specific.
We are in need of many things to help in our mission. If you
would like to help, here is a list of items we need to help care for
our rescue dogs.
We appreciate the community effort very much and thank you on behalf
of the GSRBC dogs and all our volunteers.
Money - We understand in these
times that funds are tight for everyone. People have families to
raise, bills to pay and financial obligations. If you are able to help
out with even a small amount, we appreciate it. 100% of all money donated goes directly to the
vet bills and care and feeding of our rescues. Donations go a long way
to help spay and neuter dogs, vaccinate animals and pay for any other
medical bills that come up, as well as food, which you can imagine,
can be very costly. GSRBC often takes on takes on the harder, more
financially needy dogs that no one else wants. We never want to turn
away an animal in need because of lack of funding.
Foster
Homes
- Too many times we have to turn away dogs in need because we simply
don't have anymore room for them. Please consider becoming a
pre-approved foster home, so we can quickly fill the need for the GSDs
that need us AND YOU. This
is our single biggest need to date! Housing is an issue and there are
not enough homes to go around.

Our
ultimate dream, of course is to be able to have land to build
enough housing to accommodate the majority of the dogs we are
asked to help. We get 6 - 8 calls every single day about a GSD in
need. It's just not possible to help them all. But our dream is to
be able to build a place full of love and patience, where problem
GSDs can be rehabilitated and no lost soul will fall through the
cracks again. Can you imagine, a safe place where German Shepherds
can run without a care in the world? Where they are safe and loved
and valued? Where no one loses their life, and are able to live
out their days, while getting training to be ready for their new
families? We can... and we will continue to strive for that
special place.
