About GSP Care of Ohio

Sparkle (now Etta) - adopted August 2010

“GSP Care of Ohio Rescue, Inc. is dedicated to helping GSP’s in need throughout Ohio, Indiana and northern Kentucky. We will work with shelters, humane organizations, and individual owners to assist with behavior issues, placement, health care, and other decisions and issues regarding GSP’s. We will take homeless GSP’s into our foster care program, evaluate their temperaments, ensure that they are spayed/neutered and will place them in an appropriate home. We will not place an unaltered or people-aggressive dog. We will screen potential adopters and do everything in our power to ensure that the right dog is matched with the right home and that the dog is well-cared for. GSPCO Rescue’s ultimate goal is that all GSP’s be in loving, permanent homes for their entire lives and that no GSP be left in a shelter or euthanized for inappropriate reasons.”

 

We are a group of volunteers who love the breed. The foster dogs are in our homes. There is no shelter with set hours. No one gets paid to do this. Unless you count the tail wags and doggy kisses. Our foster homes take in strays, dogs from pounds and shelters. They are a priority over owner-turn-ins. Foster homes evaluate the dog to the best of their ability. They have the dog vetted and spayed/neutered. We do understand the quirks of our breed and have the knowledge to handle German Shorthaired Pointers.

We do not breed dogs. We believe breeding should be done by responsible breeders for the betterment of the breed.

 

Rescue dogs are not defective. They are often the direct result of someone getting a dog and not taking the time to properly train and socialize it. If you’re looking for a pet, consider giving a home to a wonderful rescue dog. They have so much to offer and the rewards are endless.
