Coastal German Shepherd Rescue OC

We had a great experience working with Coastal German Shepherd Rescue! We are so grateful for the support in finding us the perfect fit for our family. Ubbe (Echo) has adjusted so well to his new family and is already fitting right in! Update on Ubbe! He is 6 months old, and has become an amazing part of our family. He and my 2 year old son are best friends. Ubbe has been an extremely quick learner and has done fantastic in socialization with other dogs and people. Greatly appreciative of the support provided in adoption process. Would absolutely recommend to others!

I adopted a wonderful GSD Shiloh Shepherd From here almost 15 years ago.She had a wonderful life. My family has adopted 5 dogs from here and donated thousands of dollars. We want another GSD but They don't answer my phone calls? That's wrong.

We've adopted three GS dogs from Coastal. They have been the absolute best pups!! Coastal is great to work with and I highly recommend. We tried GS Rescue and they were extremely difficult to work with. We've been adopting from Coastal for 15 years. Our last GS lived 14.5 years. Our new pup is a doll! We love her so much and she is perfect! I highly recommend Coastal for your adoption needs.

Shepherds are the best dogs and Coastal German Shepherd Rescue is absolutely the best place to get yours! I've grown up with Shepherds since I was a child, back when you bought them from breeders. Now there are too many amazing dogs looking for homes because people don't understand the amount of work it takes but the reward it provides when you put in the effort. Coastal takes in all Shepherds no matter the situation or their condition. They train them, socialize them, provide medical support and get them ready for adoption. When I was ready to adopt my most recent Shepherd they were very upfront about his background and current needs (not the best hips). I also needed a dog that got along with cats and they're very honest in that regard for dogs that probably wouldn't do well. Join the

We will always adopt a rescue but we weren't really looking for a "Shepherd" exactly- just a dog that would be the best for us. Actually, my wife cruised Coastal's web site often and eventually became attracted to a dog that wasn't a Shepherd at all. Once we completed the home visit process (Cal was great) we went out to have a look. Lorraine introduced us to the dog that my wife was initially interested in and we found he wasn't the right fit. After Lorraine asked us some questions, she then offered some suggestions and showed us a couple more dogs. There was one in particular that she said we would love right off. She was right. After filling out some paperwork, we took our new baby home. Coastal is one of the few rescues that will take in senior dogs and those with medical histories.
