This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to New England shortly with no additional travel costs. The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally. **Please read Eliza Excellent's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!** Meet Eliza Excellent, an approx. 2.5-month-old German Shepherd / Labrador Retriever mix, weighing 20 pounds (as of 3/12/26). The EXCELLENT litter were found dumped in a ditch in Tennessee. They look forward to teaching the folks of New England some new tricks! Ready to learn? Eliza is an outgoing girl who has had no problems adjusting to changes in her environment and you know what that means...vacation time! This girl lives for adventure and exploring new places whether that's a sunny beach in Maui or on an iceberg in Alaska. (Though she'd prefer more beach days thank you very much!) She is a happy girl who likes to play with other pups and kids and is open to being picked up, making her the perfect companion to your family's next barbecue! No one will ask you about your failing love life with Eliza around as the cutest distraction! The EXCELLENT pups are a sweet, friendly group who are excited to join your home. They should learn quickly with routine as they will need all the puppy training (commands, leashes, potty - they use a dog door, etc). With the right help, these pups are sure to have A's on all their report cards! They don't call them "Excellent" for nothing! All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
