Brody's Sponsorship Page
Brody

Brody is an incredibly lucky boy! He was dumped really sick at the shelter, not wanting to eat, but someone who couldn't afford his care. Because he was suspected to have Parvo, and it was near closing time, poor Brody went straight on the shelter's euthanasia list. However, by some miracle, Brody was given a reprieve until morning. When he was actually tested for Parvo, his results came back negative! That's right. Poor Brody simply had hookworms and a pretty bad cold, that were making him very sick. Brody was still in imminent danger, as the shelter does not have space to treat upper respiratory infections either. But since he was not sick with Parvo, that gave us a little extra time to get him out safely! Fast-forward a few weeks and Brody is healthy as can be, gorgeous, and enjoying life to the fullest! This sweet boy whose life almost ended before it had began is the sweetest!!

Brody is approx 9 months old, loving, great with people, other dogs, cats, and full of energy and playfulness. He is a sweet soul who charms all who meet him!

Brody plays very well with other dogs, and gets along with cats (he tries to play with them). He is house trained, crate-trained, and knows his basic commands. He likes to sleep in the bedroom on a dog bed with the other dogs. He is sweet and well-behaved in public. He loves people and also kids. He loves his toys but shares very well with other dogs. He likes to lay at his foster parents' feet, loves attention, and getting petted. Brody is a lovely boy who gets along with everything and everyone. Brody is a remarkable dog with a wonderful temperament.

Brody's ideal home would be an active household with prior GSD experience, and a playful dog buddy. While adorable, GSD teens require patience, structure, positive reinforcement, and redirection to channel their energy in appropriate ways. Like all German Shepherd teens, Brody will need training, consistency, boundaries, and lots of activity and socialization. Brody's adoption fee is $400, all of which goes back into offsetting our high-cost vetting expenses and rescuing more dogs.  Adoption fees include spay/neuter, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, fecal, deworming, flea/tick and heartworm preventative, heartworm tested if old enough (treated if positive), and microchipped. Please visit http://heartlandgsrescue.rescuegroups.org/info/adoption for more information about our adoption process and requirements, and to apply.

Why are Sponsorships & Donations so important?

HUGS provides dog food, supplies, necessary vet care (emergency, acute, routine), heartworm and flea/tick preventative to the HUGS foster dogs while they look for their forever homes. This can be quite costly and challenging in many ways. Additionally, some of the dogs that we rescue arrive sick or injured and require hospitalization, expensive surgery or long-term medications or other treatment. This places a huge strain on our vet fund, and can affect our ability to help future dogs. 

Sadly, without sufficient funding to transport, vet/treat, feed the dogs that we take in, we could not continue saving them. As a volunteer group that runs solely on donations and adoptions fees, we truly need your support.
