Frequently Asked Questions
Question:
What are Community Dogs?
Answer:
Private families, individuals and rescue organizations in Illinois, and surrounding
states, wishing to find a home for their German Shepherd Dog or German Shepherd
Dog mix are welcome to use our Community
Dogs page. They may provide pictures of their dog and give a brief history,
however they are responsible for taking all contacts directly from potential
adopters. The Central Illinois German Shepherd Dog Rescue assumes no liability
resulting from any misrepresentations or adoption mismatches. All dogs posted
on the Community Dogs page must be spayed or neutered. We reserve the right
to refuse to post, and may remove, any community dog from our website at
any time. Please e-mail
if you have further questions or concerns about these policies.
