Our Rehoming Program

The GSDCV, via our Rehoming program can facilitate in finding homes for German Shepherd Dogs. We are NOT a rescue organisation, but a rehoming service. The Rehoming Coordinators are only able to provide details of people who have dogs that need rehoming. They can NOT take your dog

Information in relation to dogs needing homes is provided and negotiation of adoption arrangements is the responsibility of those who have a dog that needs rehoming and the person(s) wishing to rehome that dog. Animals for rehoming are on a ‘referral’ basis only i.e. The owner of the dog, and the person interested in adopting the dog, are put in contact with each other. We take no responsibility in the decision or choice of the owner giving up their animal to other persons who may provide the dog with a home.

FEES: If you offer to provide a new home for an available dog, there is an administration fee of $50, payable by you as the ‘new’ owner of the dog. If you currently own a GSD that you wish to find a new home for using the rehoming service, an administration fee of $50 applies, payable by yourself as the current owner.  Payment may be made by direct deposit to GSDCV Inc. BSB: 083-004 Account No 48-072-4293, or by cheque or money order payable to GSDCV Inc .

Tiger’s mum is now unable (due to health and age) to look after him, especially giving him the exercise he needs. He’s getting bored in his backyard and finding ways to annoy the neighbours !
He has a lovely nature and loves to chase toys etc. The Jim’s Dog Wash man says “he is such a softy”. Tiger would love a home with a family who can walk and play with him, or with someone who is home alot. He drops and sits when told. Ideally his new owner would have some GSD experience. He has been looked after very well since a puppy and has lots of life and voe to give to hsi next owners.
