At this time, 7 of the dogs who were surrendered have been euthanized by the agencies that are holding them. Contrary to information I received, the President of the Rescue was NOT arrested; she was merely charged according to newspaper articles. According to some people, not all of the dogs were GSD's. This is a tragedy for all involved. We can only hope that as the facts of the case come to light, we can only keep the remaining dogs in our thoughts. I AM angry that the AGSRA was not contacted regarding the seizure of these dogs. German Shepherds do not always fare well in all breed rescue situations; they should have been with an EXPERIENCED group of GSD rescues who could appropriately ascertain their temperment and health issues. We are trying to save our own breed. I am concerned that the temperament test that was used would have been difficult for ANY GSD to pass, let alone a dog that was in an extremely stressful situation.
