We are an all-volunteer rescue that does not receive any government funding. Given that our adoption fee often can not cover all the expenses that are accrued from dogs in our care (including shots, spay/neuter, heartworm testing (treatment if necessary), food costs, etc) our greatest need is financial support. If you are able to offer financial support, we can accept your generosity in a number of ways:

• Sponsor a Dog
  Your donation will help feed, shelter and provide medical attention to the dog you decide to sponsor.
• Donate to the Fur Fund
  Your donation will help cover expenses not able to be covered by individual sponsorships. You may donate directly to our vet, All Creatures Animal Hospital (of Urbana, IL). You may also donate directly to Animal Outfitters (of Savoy, IL) where we purchase our dog food.
• Honor Your Dog
  Sponsor a dog at our rescue in honor of your own German Shepherd Dog or German Shepherd mix that you currently have as a member of your family.
• Remember Your Dog
  Sponsor a dog at our rescue in memory of your own German Shepherd Dog or German Shepherd mix that has passed away.
• Use igive for online purchases
  Help this rescue by making online purchases you normally make by using igive.com and signing up to help the German Shepherds in our care!
• Purchase items from our shop at CafePress
  Fifteen percent of every purchase goes directly to help the dogs in our care and the rest goes to Cafepress for the products and this great service .

We are also in constant need of foster homes from people living in the Urbana and surrounding area. If you feel that you are able to foster a dog, please contact us at for more details.
