Foster Kennels and Foster Carers Urgently Needed
As some of you know already we now have a small number of foster kennels available. These are kennels that people have built in their gardens so that they can provide short term and emergency accomodation for some of our more needy dogs. These have proved to be very successful because they provide a more normal environment for the dogs. They can get play time in the garden and time inside the volunteer's home. In fact very often the foster dogs end up living in the house with the foster families and their other pets. If you think you have space to erect a kennel and time to spend with a foster dog please get in touch, we would love to hear from you.
We are also in desparate need of foster carers. We keep losing our foster carers because they foster a dog then inevitably end up keeping it! Obviously we are delighted when this happens but we would love to find some more foster homes where people maybe don't already have a dog, or have German Shepherd experience and can help with some of our dogs that have issues. You can see from our site that many of the dogs we get asked to re-home have issues that can be worked on if people are prepared to put in some time and effort.

Yellow Moon
Don’t worry, we’re not asking you to donate! Instead we’ve found an ingenious way for you to buy wonderful products to keep your child entertained and help their development - plus help us raise the funds we urgently need too. It’s called the YELLOW MOON fundraising scheme.
How does Yellow Moon help us?
Simple really. For every purchase you make from the Yellow Moon fundraising scheme, we will receive up to 25% cash-back (excl. VAT and p&p). So the more you, or your friends and family order, the more cash-back we’ll receive. And if you think the products from Yellow Moon are expensive, you’d be wrong. Browse through the website and you’ll see hundreds of quality creative products and toys from just £1.99.
Here’s how you can help us - and your child.
Browse the Yellow Moon website, (www.yellowmoon.org.uk) choose from the hundreds of wonderful products and place your order direct with Yellow Moon either online or by calling 0844 826 8677.
Yellow Moon will send your products direct to your door.
All orders placed using the unique Source Code for German Shepherd Rescue Scotland will have the cash-back amount pooled.
Yellow Moon will send us a cheque for the collective amount, which we can use to help re-home German Shepherds in Scotland.
IMPORTANT - when placing your order, please remember to quote the unique Source Code WGE03905 (three letters then five numbers) to ensure the cash-back amount is attributed to German Shepherd Rescue Scotland.
We hope you enjoy purchasing from this fun-packed, educational fundraising website and would like to thank you in advance for your valued support.
