Illinois Shorthair Rescue

847.276.6995

We believe there is a special place for all unwanted and discarded German Shorthaired Pointers.
Each one deserves a second chance at finding a forever home.
Illinois Shorthair Rescue is a non-profit breed rescue group based in Northern Illinois. Our mission is to help German Shorthaired Pointers in need; place them in responsible, loving homes, and educate the public about the breed.

We save GSPs from animal control facilities, humane societies, and neglect, cruelty, or owner give-up situations. Our rescued dogs get loving care and needed medical attention. They are fostered in private homes and live indoors as family companions while they wait for their forever homes. Learn More About ISR
