About this shelter

German Shepherd Rescue of the Rockies in Westminster, CO

German Shepherd Rescue of the Rockies is a volunteer-run, nonprofit rescue organization based in Westminster, Colorado, in Adams County, roughly 25 miles west of Aurora. It is a 501(c)(3) dedicated specifically to German Shepherd Dogs, taking in and rehoming GSDs while relying on foster homes to care for dogs prior to adoption. The rescue operates as a no-kill organization and provides resources for adopters and fosters, including guidance on whether a German Shepherd is the right breed fit and support through its network of volunteers. Ten other animal shelters and rescues also serve Adams County, where GSROR is one of the local resources for homeless and surrendered German Shepherds.
