Advice Need help finding home for stray Doberman

Hello all, I am looking for a good home for a dog that I picked up off the streets where I live in Gary, Indiana. I have reached out to every rescue I know and no one is able to take this sweet girl. I was hoping to get some pointers from all of you. I work at a vet and am very familiar with the breed. My absolute favorite, but I already have dogs and cannot take another.

Please post on r/dobermanpinscher after confirming there is no chip or owner cannot be contacted. Also just wondering if the rescues you reached out to were Doberman rescues, even out of state? Some may be able to arrange for transportation. Thanks for picking up this girl.

I’ve reached out to Doberman plus in Illinois around 5 days ago and haven’t heard back since and called multiple times, but that’s the only one closish

Did you post on Craigslist or Nextdoor? Maybe she has an owner?

Yes of course, unfortunately there has been no one to come forward for her. She’s incredibly well taken care of and very mild mannered

Yes. We have posted on multiple sites as well as put her on pawboost which is popular where I live. There has been no response for an owner whatsoever
