In Tribute
 

We remember our faithful German Shepherd Dogs who are no longer at our sides, as well as those who have loved them.

This is a place to offer tribute to the German Shepherd Dogs who are or have been important parts of our lives and the people who have been friends to Shepherds. We welcome postings including dog or friend's name, your name (or "anonymous"), and a contribution to GSRNC.

If you wish to include a photo with your posting, please email us a jpeg photo file.  Please send all text, photos and URL links to : webmaster@gsrnc.org.
