How can BrightStar help you find a new home for your German Shepherd dog?

Sometimes life just happens and you find yourself unable to keep your loving German Shepherd Dog. BrightStar can offer an alternative to having to take your fateful friend to an "unknown" shelter or having to "put the dog to sleep". We might be able to help find your dog a new home. We offer a private adopt option to assist you in finding your dog a new home if you live in NY. Please refer to the following rescue directory or our map for the rescue located nearest to you.

BrightStar will list your dog under our Private Owners Page , Petfinders.org and germanshepherds.com. The owner must list their contact info, provide the dog's picture and is responsible for screening potential homes. BrightStar can provide you consultation on how to screen potential homes. Just email our webmaster with the dog's details, a picture and your contact information. BrightStar will also inform current applicants of your dog's availability. Some of these applicants are already approved and just waiting for the "right connection". BrightStar reserves the right to refuse any private posting. We will not post dogs for breeding or fighting purposes. A $25 listing fee/donation is requested.

If this option does not work for you, we can direct you to shelters in the Rochester (and Buffalo) area that BrightStar has established placement partnerships.
