IF YOU’RE VIEWING THIS VIA A PET SEARCH SITE, WE’RE STILL ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR SCARLETT. PLEASE visit our website BetterDaysRescue.org to read our policies as well as Scarlett's requirements/detailed profile.

**
Our puppies are placed in the Phoenix metro area, for proximity to our rescue (home checks, follow up visits, visit to finalize adoption) and for access to our veterinarian. Sorry, no exceptions.

Adoption begins with a Foster-To-Adopt arrangement that continues until Puppy Kindergarten (or Basic Obedience) and Intermediate Obedience Training are completed. When pup is 1) spayed/neutered and 2) training is complete, adoption can then be finalized.

Scarlett is the Princess Grace of German Shepherds. She is serene and gorgeous and nothing seems to ruffle her. However, she is still very much a puppy and requires significant exercise and training. Scarlett needs activity in the form of playing and walks, but she is not a dog of frantic motion - humans and a dog playmate who know how to be active but also chill out and relax woud be her choice.

Scarlett’s new family must already have at least one friendly, playful, well-adjusted dog, and an adult who is home most of the time. Children must be 12 or older.

We have no way to definitively know whether Scarlett is good with small dogs, so we will err on the side of caution and focus on placement opportunities with medium-sized dogs.

If you believe you're a possible match for Scarlett, please complete an adoption application! Please include information regarding your experience raising and training German Shepherds. **We are serious about these requirements and hope that you will re-read them carefully before applying to meet Scarlett.**

We encourage you to register on our site and "Favorite" the dog(s) that interest you, so that you will be notified when bio, photos, or status are updated.

"Companion animal" means, needs at least one other friendly, playful dog that lives full-time in the same household.
"Fenced yard" means, a backyard that is adjacent to and connected with your residence. (It does not mean a nearby fenced area/dog park.)
Gates must have padlocks and thresholds (cement or buried pavers to prevent digging.)
Yard and patio must be free of debris and have room for dogs to run and play *on a lawn and/or in a very shaded area.* Please do not invite us to your home if you have not yet landscaped your yard!
“Swimming pool” means a private, in-ground, year-round pool that is available to the dog daily or multiple times per week.
We do not place dogs in situations where there are "drained" or empty swimming pools, which are a fall hazard and contribute to the propogation of mosquitos.
Last and not least, we DO NOT adopt to students as we have found that they often do not know or anticipate where life will take them.

Discussion about a dog - including scheduling of a home check or other dialogue - cannot occur until we have received your completed adoption application. NO EXCEPTIONS. Thank you!
