The principal aim of BIGGSD is to help rehome German Shepherd dogs in the UK & Ireland and this is done mainly by: Making people aware of the dogs in need, at rescue centers, dog pounds, other rescue organisations and with private individuals Bringing particular attention to the plight of dogs who are under
immediate threat of being put to sleep (pts) Helping to fund the kennelling, fostering & transport costs whenever possible via the BIGGSD fund Bringing German Shepherd dog loving people together through this board as a community Helping any other breed or crossbreed dog too, to
find a safe, secure and loving home whenever possible Offering a list of homecheckers, volunteers & fosterers that are members on the site who can help rescues & private individuals whenever possible and providing the ability to request help too.
If a releasing agency other than a public or private animal shelter
finds a direct and
immediate threat to a companion animal placed with a foster care provider, it shall report its
findings to the animal control agency in the area where the foster care provider is located.
