Winston is a 10 year old shepherd. Do not let his age fool you, this boy is SPUNKY!! He enjoys swimming in the pond and staying busy. This boy does best with female dogs his size and adores any person he meets. He is not fully house trained yet (working on it), and will likely be missing some of his fur and be skinny the rest of his life. While he may be rough around the edges, Winston has so much love left to give.

I am a sweet 3 year old boy who is still learning all the wonderful things life has to offer. I am still a little unsure of things but my foster family has helped me learn and grow! I am good with kids of all ages as well as other dogs and cats! I have a calm demeanor and am very friendly! I do have a facial deformity likely due to an injury as a pup or some genetic issue, so far none of my vets find any cause for concern. Just adds to my already amazing charm.

Linda is a 2 year old gal who loves to cuddle!! She gets along with most dogs. Linda loves to snuggle and bonds closely with her person. We do not recommend a home with kids at this time, they kind of freak her out. She does need someone who is home a lot, as she does get some anxiety when her humans leave the house.

About Us

Sweet Home Doberman Rescue (SHDR) is the only 501c3 not for profit Doberman rescue organization in the state of Alabama. Founded in 2015, SHDR is committed to the rescue, rehabilitation, and placement of abused, abandoned, and/or neglected Dobermans. It is SHDR's personal mission to assist this magnificent breed in any way we can.

We are also dedicated to educating the public as well as future Doberman owners about this majestic, often misunderstood breed. They are often portrayed as aggressive dogs who will attack at a moment's notice when in fact they are Velcro dogs who are loyal, protective, and want to please their family! A Doberman wants nothing more than to be by your side and on your couch.

We have recently opened our doors to German Shepherd Dogs, who have a special place in our hearts as well. They are also a very misunderstood breed who would benefit from our extensive knowledge on the breed so we can educate the public as well as rescue, rehabilitate, and place abused, abandoned, and neglected GSDs.

Dog of the Month

Lawrence is the dog of the month!

Lawrence was transferred to us from a Humane Society. He had a some degloving on his foot, unfortunately that led to a bone infection. Thankfully the infection is gone and foot is almost fully healed!! He was heartworm positive but has finished his treatment protocol. Lawrence does have a grade 4/6 heart murmur likely due to heartworms, this could potentially get better or may be something he lives with for the rest of his life. Despite all of that Lawrence is a sweet loving boy who lets nothing stop him! He adores kids and other dogs and just loves to snuggle his people. He will make a great addition to just about any family willing to take a chance on this sweet boy.

Karey Jones and family have been a true blessing for SHDR. They have always been willing to take anyone who needed a place to go. Their little ones are very respectful and show the dogs so much love and kindness. Not only are they impeccable fosters, they also help with transport any time they are able.
