Adoption Process

The process involves several steps that need to be taken to ensure the dog we are placing will be given the love and kindness it deserves. Please be patient with us, we are a volunteer based organization and sometimes need help getting home checks complete.
​
  1. Choose a GSD from our AVAILABLE GSDs
  2. Fill out an Adoption Application (scroll down to fill out the app)
  3. References will be checked by our volunteer processing your application
  4. A home check will be set up by one of our volunteers
  5. After you've been approved to adopt you can set up a Meet-n-Greet with the dog you are interested in adopting
  6. If all goes well, you can work though the Foster Home to finalize the adoption
  7. All adopters are required to complete a basic obedience training class after adopting. MLGSDR offers classes to adopters (for a fee), or you can choose to use a training resource of your own, but it is required and if not followed through, gives MLGSDR the right to repossess the dog, as stated in the adoption contract.

Ask yourself these questions before you take the next step: Are you prepared to provide basic care, medical care, training and unconditional love for the next 10-15 years? If the answer is yes, then fill out the Adoption Application
