MISSION - WHAT WE DO

Middle Tennessee German Shepherd Rescue is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to the mission of providing medical care, temperament evaluation, rehabilitation, training and placement of German Shepherd Dogs and other herding/working breeds. The MTGSR program includes dogs rescued from shelters, dogs found as strays by individuals, as well as owner-surrenders needing to be re-homed. Prior to adoption, all dogs are spayed/neutered, current on all vaccinations, current on heartworm and flea/tick preventative and have been microchipped. Our extremely high placement success rate results from carefully matching the right dog with the right family. Our goal is to provide German Shepherd Dogs permanent homes with qualified owners.

VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

Our motto is “Rescue locally, place locally” which means we primarily pull dogs from shelters in Nashville-Davidson County and the surrounding counties; and we prefer to place our dogs in homes within a one-hour drive of Nashville. Although we primarily focus on the middle Tennessee area, we also pull dogs from shelters in East and West Tennessee and neighboring states as foster space and financial resources permit. Like most rescues, MTGSR is a volunteer-based, foster-based organization and we rely on the dedication of our team members to make our mission possible. Rescue is not our occupation and, in addition to pursuing our careers and caring for our families, we put our hearts and souls into making a difference for the dogs that we take into our program. MTGSR is passionate about “Enriching the lives of German Shepherd Dogs and the families who adopt them.”

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

German Shepherd Rescue and Placement The Middle Tennessee German Shepherd Rescue program welcomes German Shepherd Dogs in need of rescue with the goal of preparing them for adoption and placing them in permanent adoptive homes with qualified owners. While we are a breed-specific rescue and our priority is full-blooded German Shepherds, we also welcome other similar herding breeds and German Shepherd mixes. Our organization is no-kill, foster-based, and 100% volunteer operated.
