Coastal K9 German Shepherd Rescue of San Diego

Get to know them.

Coastal K9 German Shepherd Rescue gives shepherd enthusiasts a way to put that interest to work for dogs awaiting homes. Walking, care, transport, fostering and special events all form part of the rescue’s volunteer program. Its ranch setting has specific handling guidance, so joining starts with the team rather than an unannounced visit.

After an application, a volunteer coordinator helps arrange the next step. Read the dog-walker guidelines and ranch rules if you want a hands-on role. If that is not the right fit, the rescue also lists driving, fundraising and event support. You do not have to choose fostering to become useful to the organization.
