See below. Also, instead of contacting a no-kill rescue agency, you may want to see your local county's animal shelter, as MANY German Shepherds are in each one! You can go to your local shelter and bring your buddy home- at my shelter, most of the dogs are shepherds. :)

TYPE IN: Rescue organizations for German Shepherds
There is a great list for all different types of dog breeds. You are going down the right path with this one and not contacting the ASPCA. Certain breeds need special treatment to get them back to the good shape they started out with.
Good luck
AnswerBest way to find a reputable rescue is to go to the National club for the breed. In this case, go to the website for the German Shepard Dog Club of America at: http://www.gsdca.org/base/index.php
Scroll down and click on "Breed Rescue" on the left side. This will give you regional and state rescue groups that are safe and reputable. (There are people out there who call themselves a "rescue" that will take a dog and just use him/her for breeding, or sell the dog without first neutering or spaying. Finding a rescue through a breed club helps avoid those types of people.) Also, if you can find your local "breed club" (people who show in AKC shows and breed professionally) they are also usually active in rescue of their breed. The above responder was right -- you are doing the best thing for your dog and for the future owner by going through a reputable rescue group.
