Placement Guidelines

surrender





Please note: We only accept German Shorthaired Pointers. 

Our main priority is to GSPs in shelter situations. Our ability to help an individual dog is based on foster home availability, location of the dog, and temperament evaluation results.


Accepted dogs may require a delay until foster care is available as we always have a waiting list.

GPPR is no longer processing courtesy posts. 

We are an all volunteer organization and we do the best we can with limited resources. You can be assured that once GPPR accepts a dog into our program, we will always be here as its safety net. Any dog placed by us is bound by contract to return to GPPR if the new owner can no longer keep him or her at any time in the future OR is not living up to their contractual obligations agreed to at the time of adoption.     

We encourage you to complete the surrender form to find a foster home. Completing the form helps us to gather the information needed to help find proper placement. It does not guarantee we can accept the dog. Please note that GPPR does not accept aggressive dogs, or dogs with a bite history. All of our foster homes have other dogs and we will not risk the safety of our volunteers or their pets and will not re-adopt aggressive dogs to families.
