ADOPTED ON 06-28-25: We are very pleased to announce that MS Betsy (18 months) has been rescued, completed rehabilitation, completed training and is now ready for adoption. Our girl is a German shepherd that is poetry in motion, perfect stance, perfect gait, perfect symmetry, flowing coat and super breed definition. Betsy came to us with quite a hill to climb but climb it she did, becoming absolute definition of poise, grace and confidence. This young lady loves people, loves other dogs, and loves to play, loves to snuggle, is hilariously playful, is wonderfully inquisitive, what can I say she is about as good as they come! It is impossible to not fall in love with Betsy, she just has it all!

Our lady had every right to despise people but instead she chose to embrace our kindness and love, moving on to happiness, forgiveness and trust. As might be expected Betsy handled our socialization and training programs exceedingly well. Our overall findings during these programs revealed a strong desire to bond, a strong human desire, strong desire to train, a strong desire to please, extreme intelligence and a strong but in control protective instinct. Our girl has earned the right to a long and happy life, applying for best means that you fully understand how special she is and that you are willing to give her love, safety, health, exercise and continued training.

RDVG wants to provide you with as much information as we can because some of our mix breeds you might not be familiar with. The below section on “About the Breed” offers information on some of the Breed Characteristics, Children & Pets, Behavior and Personality, Temperament and more.

It is important to point out that in addition to the breed, there is an enormous variety in the way a dog acts and reacts to the world around him. In the end, your dog’s preferences and personality are as individual as you are–and if you can accept that– then you’re bound to enjoy each other.

Animal Behavior Guidelines

Many children, especially very young ones, do not realize that pets are living animals and not toys. Failing to teach a child how to handle pets properly can result in suffering on the part of the pet and, in some cases, injury to the child. Taking introductions slowly will allow you to introduce family dogs and your children safely

Puppy Behavior, Growth & Development

Each stage of Puppy Growth and development is fascinating; by the time it reaches its first birthday a puppy is considered a mature, adult dog. Puppy Growth rate is fast compared to humans, just compare a puppy of 8 weeks to a baby of the same age.

One of the most common questions asked about a puppy’s growth and development rate refers to the eventual size of the puppy. How big will the puppy grow? How can you determine the adult size of a puppy? A young puppy is tiny and cute – everyone loves puppies! But will the puppy be suited to your environment? How much exercise will be required for a full grown dog? Will the puppy be a suitable pet for children? The breed of the puppy will determine the answers to these questions. A general response to the size and growth rate of a puppy and the adult size of a puppy is therefore not possible – it needs to be specific to the puppy’s breed.
