Registration and Pledges
We Need Your
Pledges!
Your pledges will make
this walk a success. Because we are a fully volunteer, 501(c)(3)
charitable organization, we rely on the generosity of GSD-lovers
to fund our programs.
All proceeds go directly to the
care of our German Shepherd Dogs in foster care, who were
abandoned or left in shelters to await an uncertain fate. They
are given a thorough exam, receive necessary medical treatment
and are neutered/spayed, immunized, parasite and heartworm
tested.
We have a
few different ways you collect register and collect pledges.

Greta has severe health issues that keep
her from gaining weight.
It took over a year of testing, 1000s of dollars and
many veterinary specialists before she was adopted by the
vet giving her the care.
