Welcome to the Mid-Atlantic German Shepherd Rescue!  

We are a non-profit rescue dedicated to German Shepherds and German Shepherd mixes. If you are looking to add a new family member to your loving home in the Mid-Atlantic area, please visit the Adoption page.

We have dedicated over 25 years to helping our dogs find homes with over 4,900 adoptions since 1999!  Help us make that number much higher: Adopt | Foster | Donate | Volunteer

MAGSR is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charity, so your gifts are tax deductible.

If your employer matches charitable contributions please ask them for the form to send to MAGSR so you gift can be matched, effectively doubling your donation .

Our Commitments

These are dogs that are not currently adoptable, they may never be. But MAGSR has committed to their care for life, to keep them safe and comfortable in a loving home for as long as it takes. Once a MAGSR dog, always a MAGSR dog.
