My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Rex is one of those happy go lucky, loveable German Shepherds that is a rare offering in the rescue world. A two year old, 75 pound young dog that is a victim of divorce. Like children, he is having to adjust to a new lifestyle and he must be rehomed due to his dad moving in with parents who are already at their limit for dogs. Everyone is heartbroken. Rex loves everyone and is good with cats, other dogs and adores meeting new people. He is housebroken, crate trained and not a nervous nelly like some Shepherds can be. He is still growing and can stand to add a few more muscular pounds as he becomes a more mature adult dog. Broken hearted is what his owner will be when he goes but Critter Cavalry Rescue has promised to find the perfect Shepherd savvy home for him with a fenced yard, and someone with the time and stability to give this boy all he deserves in life. Rex is an eager and easy student to train to be a family’s “everything” dog. Please know this breed before asking to adopt. They are dogs that cannot be ignored and left alone for 10 hours a day. They love challenges that are both mental and physical. Rex is a love of a dog, with no aggressive tendencies at all but he needs to know boundaries and you MUST BE A LEADER to him. He will pace at first in a new environment because that is what GSD breeds do. Change is tough on their intelligent heart and soul. He is a true treasure for his breed.

More about this rescue

We are a group of dedicated rescue people who want to save as many dogs and cats from the local shelters before they are euthanized. On the average....there are only 1 out of 10 animals that get adopted from a shelter. We are dedicated to helping increase pet adoptions by offering a shelter animal a foster home to go to while awaiting an adoptive family to find them on our Petfinder website. Won't you please adopt a shelter animal? Or won't you please help us foster a shelter animal.
