German Shepherd Rescue of Los Angeles

As the San Bernardino fires roared through the canyon homes, many animals lost there homes and were separated from there families. Thankfully most of the lost animals were ultimately reunited with there families. This is not the case with Ember. Ember was picked up by animal control when the fires first broke out. She had owner identification on her. The shelter contact her owners repeatedly and no one ever came for poor Ember. Days went by and one day a kennel assistant came in and found that Ember had delivered a litter of puppies. No one knew that this poor girl was pregnant when she came into the shelter. Ember nursed and cared for her puppies for 8 weeks in a cold, cement dog run. The shelter staff kept Ember and her puppies for much longer than required because they knew what a wonderful dog she was.

Ember's puppies got weaned and were spoken for... but Ember was not. When one of our volunteers went out to the shelter, to pick up yet another homeless shepherd, she met Ember and knew that her life had to be saved.

Ember is now safe with German Shepherd Rescue and is looking for a forever home that will cherish her. Ember is a dark black and tan shepherd. We believe she is approximately 4-5 years old. Ember needs a home where she will given some much needed TLC. With some much needed nutrition, Ember will fill out to be a gorgeous girl.

Ember is currently in a boarding kennel, and would love to get into a foster or permanent home. If you are interested in meeting her, please email k9rescuegsd@aol.com, or click on the button below and fill out our online adoption application.
