Adopt a German Shepherd Dog
Juno (Special Needs) the Dog needs a home
JUNO is a stunning, 3 year-old, all-black female, who came to MOGS all the way from an Owner Surrender at a rescue in Council Bluffs, IA.
TEMPERAMENT
Juno is a super sweet, easy-going girl who LOVES to play catch with almost anything you can throw. She does have some anxiety, especially in novel situations, and has a mild tendency towards being a velcro dog. She does know basic commands, and continues to work on them in her current foster home.
OTHER ANIMALS
Juno is good with both dogs and cats, although she sometimes has to be corrected for excessive curiosity towards other animals. She gets along well with the other dogs in her foster home, and has been to doggie daycare with no issues. Another dog in the home is required, as it helps ease her nervousness, and she needs a role model as well.
CHILDREN
Juno has lived with children as young as 7 years-old and does well.
MEDICAL
Juno has been diagnosed with a seizure disorder, and requires multiple medications to manage this issue. This should be considered a life-long medical management issue, and she will need ongoing care after adoption into a forever home.
JUNO's ADOPTION FEE: $350
This fee covers only part of what we spend to vet, board and rehab the dogs we save. On average we spend over $450 on each dog. We made a decision to keep our adoption fee at the 2005 level even though vet prices have doubled and tripled since then. We are constantly fundraising to cover the deficit. At minimum, your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming, monthly heartworm and flea preventives, and microchip. In many cases it also includes surgery and various types of vet treatment for standard issues such as hot spots, ear infections and so on.

PLEASE READ THIS:
- We're picky about our adopters! GSDs are not for everyone. They take a lot of time, effort and training. They shed all year round. They're big and scare lots of people. They "mouth" and are usually strong-willed and stubborn. You have to have references and a home visit. If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time applying.
- All MOGS dogs must be inside family pets. We do not adopt to outdoor only homes.
- When you're not home, you must put your dog indoors (NOT in the yard). One adopted MoGS dog died after the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, someone opened the gate, and she was hit by a car. Privacy fences get broken into, gates are opened, thieves steal dogs. NEVER leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
- You're required to make a lifetime commitment. The minute you adopt, it is your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE. Only you can do that.
- Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
- What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes? New baby? Divorce? Moving? How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? If you move? If you have a child?
- You're making a lifetime commitment to a MOGS Dog. We expect you to keep it! It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
