Our hours are by appointment only. If you are a good match, we will contact you, typically within 72 hours. YOU WILL HEAR FROM US ONLY IF WE FIND YOU TO BE A GOOD MATCH FOR ONE OF OUR RESCUE ANIMALS AND OUR ADOPTION GUIDELINES/PROGRAM. We must review a completed application before an appointment is arranged. No exceptions. All visits with the rescue animals are by approved applications and appointments only. Nikko is a stunning, male, German Shepherd Dog that has just arrived into rescue! He is what we all would love to have in a shepherd. Nikko is friendly, outgoing and athletic. He is also very very fun! Nikko has excellent house manners too. He is crate-trained and has excellent leash manners. Nikko also loves to ride in the car. Nikko will excel at agility. He absolutely loves playing with his ball, jumping and running. Nikko is incredibly athletic. He will play for hours and will retrieve his ball and bring it back to you every time. Nikko is being fostered with other shepherds, so he can be placed as an only dog or with other large breed dogs. We have not tested him with small dogs or cats. Nikko has not been around children while in foster care, so an adult-only home is what we are looking for. If you would like to adopt Nikko, visit our website and apply today! Please fill out an application to meet me at http://www.washingtongsd.org/application.html The adoption process includes completion of an adoption application, a vet check, a home visit and a lifetime adoption contract. Adoptions are not done on a first come first serve basis. WA German Shepherd Rescue is the companion animal's advocate and will select the most suitably matched home for the dog's general needs and the unique needs of each individual dog in our care. We reserve the right to refuse service and adoption without explanation. Are you following us on Facebook?
