I just heard back from intake and they are aware of these dogs.
Dealing with this shelter can be frustrating because they will not allow a "nose to nose" test with another dog as part of an evaluation. Since we only have a couple of foster homes without other dogs, and they are full, dog aggressive dogs are difficult for us to place. It is hard to tell if a dog is dog aggressive without seeing them react to another dog. As stated before, this shelter almost always places adoptable dogs. The GSDs that do not get adopted from this facility usually have either severe health or behavioral issues. Also, MAGSR helps cover this particular shelter.

I will let intake know that other folks have been able to do nose-to-nose tests!
There are actually THREE GSDs at this shelter and all three have multiple applications and MAGSR as back up if all of the apps fall through.
