GSPCSD
PLACEMENT SERVICE
|
The GSPCSD
Placement Service has been very successful. Numerous GSP's have been placed
in homes instead of ending up in shelters. Owners have taken the responsibility for their
own GSP by keeping them until good homes could be found through the club's placement
service. Dogs needing homes are placed on the club's web site Placement Service Page
as well as posted at vets and pet stores. It is good to see that owners are willing to
work with the club for the betterment of their dog when placement in necessary. The
money received from the club's Specialty Show raffle helps to fund the club's placement
program so no fees are charged to the families who are adopting a GSP.
