Shania, along with her sisters Reba and Lainey, came from an accidental litter. We are lovingly calling them the Country Puppies. Born without the resources or care they needed, the girls spent their early days living outside without consistent attention or guidance. Recognizing that the puppies deserved a safer, healthier start, their owner made the responsible decision to surrender them to MAGSR. This opened the door for each girl to grow into a confident, stable adult with the support of a loving family.

Shania is a brave little sweetheart with a big heart and an even bigger desire for love. Despite her tough beginnings, she’s discovering just how wonderful the world can be—one cuddle, treat, and wagging tail at a time. Curious, affectionate, and looking for direction, she’s finally experiencing the positive moments she missed early on. Shania can be a little shy with new people and unfamiliar environments. She’s still learning that new experiences can be fun and that people are typically kind. Her foster family is working diligently to help her build confidence, and she is responding beautifully to their leadership. As with all shepherds, training will go a long way in helping Shania grow. It will not only teach her the skills she needs to be a good canine citizen, but also help her form a strong, trusting bond with her forever family. With time, patience, and consistent guidance, Shania is opening up and showing her people her truly amazing personality.

Having lived with several dogs in her previous home, Shania is dog-friendly and people-friendly. We don’t yet know how she’ll do with cats or other small furry friends, but time will tell. As adorable as she is, Shania is still very much a puppy. She will whine, have accidents, and entertain you with endless puppy antics. But with training, routine, and plenty of opportunities to learn, Shania will grow into an incredible adult dog. Her foster family has been working hard to build a strong foundation of skills, and she’s ready to continue her journey with a family who can provide the structure, routine, and encouragement she needs to thrive. In return, Shania will bring joy, devotion, and that special rescue-dog gratitude that fills a home with love.

Shania is ready for her forever family—could it be you?
