As a service to purebred German Shepherd Dogs and Australian Cattle Dogs in need of rescue, the German Shepherd Rescue Network provides information about dog adoption from breed rescue, shelter or a German Shepherd breeder or Australian Cattle Dog breeder.

We also provide a library of Dog Rescue information where you'll find informative articles and resources to learn about selecting, caring for, and training your dog, and a Dog Training Directory of dog trainers specializing in the herding breeds for those who have already found their lifetime companion and are ready to begin training.

Those wishing to re-home a purebred German Shepherd Dog or Australian Cattle Dog will want to visit the dog and puppy adoption and placement options page for helpful information about rehoming your dog with a qualified adopter.
