German Shepherd Dog Dogs Available for Adoption in Pleasant Grove, California

NOTE: TYSON IS AT THE MUNICIPAL ANIMAL SHELTER IN TAFT, CA (NEAR BAKERSFIELD). GSRSV HAS NOT MET TYSON. WE ARE LISTING TYSON ON THIS WEBSITE ALONG WITH OUR OWN DOGS TO GIVE HIM MORE ADOPTION EXPOSURE. PLEASE SEE END OF THIS PROFILE FOR CONTACT INFO.

“Tyson” is an approx 2-yo neutered male GSD available for adoption at the rural shelter in Taft, CA. Tyson is friendly, playful and well-behaved. He gets along great with other dogs. See elsewhere on this page for a video of Tyson (the darker of the two dogs) playing w/ another GSD. Tyson seems truly grateful to be off the streets from whence he came.

Tyson has been at the Taft shelter since January 2025—far too long for such a good-tempered dog (or any dog, for that matter). It’s Tyson’s good temperament that has enabled him to stay alive for so long—even when space has run out. Tyson is a true shelter staff favorite, and is so deserving of a home to call his own.

If you’re interested in adopting Tyson, please contact Carol Lacey, a volunteer at the shelter who has spent much time with him. Carol’s contact info is 415- 847-9078, 1000mutts@pm.me.
