Sweet Mac was picked up by animal control and brought to a shelter. Upon her arrival it was highly evident that she was in need of medical support. Mac could pull herself up on her front two legs, but struggled to move her back end. Shelter staff immediately got her into a vet to see what they could do to help this lovely little girl. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that Mac had a fractured pelvis, close to the right hip, and a dislocated left hip. It is presumed that Mac was hit by a car. She would need surgical support to help her move forward. Unfortunately, this was not an option at the shelter and would likely result in Mac being euthanized. In an attempt to save her life, a plea for help went out. MAGSR's volunteers knew they needed to help.

Mac is an absolute sweetheart. Even with the significant amount of pain that she is in, Mac is still gentle and affectionate. Her lovely eyes simply tug at your heartstrings. We have already begun working with Mac's surgical team to help her move forward. Mac will need to take it slow as she heals; however, at her age, a full recovery is expected. As a young girl, Mac is still learning all about the world around her. She, just like any young pup, will benefit greatly from continued socialization. This is critical as it will help her develop into a stable and confident adult. Mac is looking for a family that will love and cherish her for a lifetime. If she sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today.

Russell was dumped in a suburban neighborhood. This smart guy chose a house and decided to hang out on their doorstep. Fortunately, he chose a dog-loving household who immediately brought him in and started taking the right steps to try to find his family. Although they worked with the local shelter and lost dog groups, no one came forward to claim Russell. Without the resources to keep Russell as a member of their household, this family waited for his stray to to finish and began reaching out for rescue help. We knew Russell would be an excellent addition to the MAGSR family and stepped forward to welcome him. 

Handsome Russell is a young, energetic, and playful guy. Although we don't know much about his past, it is very evident that he has been socialized with other dogs and people. As a young dog, it is imperative that Russell's new family continue this socialization with new people, animals, and environments. This will help him develop into a stable and confident adult. In addition to regular socialization, Russell will need daily exercise for both his mind and his body. He will need an active family that can meet these needs. As is true of all young dogs, Russell will thrive with structure, routine, and leadership. His new family will need to take him to training so that he can develop a healthy bond with them. Training is also important as it will help Russell become a good canine citizen. If this impressive guy sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today!

Handsome Kodiak was surrendered to a high kill shelter in the south with his buddy, a little beagle. Their family was no longer able to care for them and had run out of options. Another rescue learned about the two pups and knew they didn't have long particularly, because they were owner surrenders. At the last second they were able to find a temp foster and pull the dogs with hopes of finding other rescues who could help them settle into loving forever homes. When MAGSR was contacted to see if we could help, we immediately answered the call. Kodiak's buddy found safety with a breed specific beagle rescue and Kodiak made the long journey to join the MAGSR family. 

Kodiak is an impressive guy. As a mature adult, he is stable, calm, and confident. A social guy, Kodiak enjoys the company of other people and other dogs. He is known to give out big, sloppy kisses to his friends. Kodiak has lived in a home prior to his arrival in our care. As a result, he knows many of the rules of living in a household; however, like any new dog he will need a little time to adjust to his new environment. Kodiak will thrive with structure, guidance, and leadership. This will help him adjust to his new family and routine. Just like all dogs, Kodiak will also benefit greatly from training. This will not only help him develop a strong bond with his forever family, but it will also help him learn the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. Kodiak is already developing a few basic skills but will need to continue to learn more with his new family. This amazing guy is looking for a family that will commit to him throughout his golden years, could that be with you?

Ralph is a big, handsome, social guy. He likes dogs of varied sizes and has clearly been well socialized. As Ralph is still very young, it is critical that his forever family continue to socialize him appropriately. This will help him develop into a stable dog. As a playful guy, Ralph is looking for an active household that will exercise both his mind and his body on a daily basis. As we do not know anything about Ralph's past, in many ways he is a clean slate. He will benefit from structure, routine, and leadership. Ralph's family will need to make sure that he gets into training early. This will help Ralph bond to his forever family; it will also help him develop the skills and confidence he will need to become a good canine citizen. 

Unfortunately, we have learned that Ralph is heartworm positive. This diagnosis could have been avoided if he had been provided with monthly heartworm prevention. MAGSR is beginning Ralph's heartworm treatment. Although treatment is expensive, sweet Ralph is beyond worth the cost. Please consider donating toward Ralph's treatment. Your generosity will help us save him and other dogs with medical needs. Although Ralph will need to take it slow over the next few months, he will be back to full strength once his treatment is finished.

Handsome Marquis was purchased as a puppy. Unfortunately, his family did not realize how large he would become and quickly discovered that they did not have the time or resources for a large breed dog. Recognizing that they would not be able to properly care for Marquis, they began reaching out for help. When asked to help this pup move forward, MAGSR stepped up.

True of all puppies, Marquis is a playful and inquisitive guy. Unfortunately, his family did not provide him with many opportunities to socialize with people and other animals. As a result, this boy is shy and does need time to adjust to new people and situations. Marquis' forever family will need to make sure to give him plenty of opportunities to socialize in controlled settings. This is essential for all dogs as it helps them develop into stable and confident adults. Training will also be critical for Marquis as it will help him bond to his forever family; it will also help him begin developing the skills he will need to become a good canine citizen. Although Marquis is a cutie, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their families. Puppies are full of puppy antics, they whine, get into things, and they will chew on inappropriate items. With time, patience, and training, Marquis will develop into the amazing dog we know he is destined to be. If this pup sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet him today!

Beautiful Bonita was picked up as a stray in a busy city with her two pups - Hermosa and Guapo. This sweet little family was taken to an overcrowded animal shelter where they waited to be claimed. When no one arrived to bring them home, a plea went out for help. We knew this little family deserved the comfort and safety of a home and stepped up to help.

Bonita is a sweet but timid girl. She is gentle but would prefer that her people give her a little time to adjust. With patience Bonita warms up and begins to let her personality shine. As we do not know anything about her past, in many ways Bonita is starting fresh. She will likely need to learn the ins and outs of living in the comfort and safety of a household. With structure, patience, and leadership, we are sure that Bonita will thrive. Training will be a critical piece of Bonita's transition as it will help her bond to her forever family while also building the stability and confidence she needs to become a good canine citizen.

Unfortunately, we have learned that Bonita is heartworm positive. This diagnosis could have been avoided had she been provided with monthly heartworm preventatives. Bonita's entire treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Treatment is expensive, but this sweet little momma is definitely worth the cost. Please consider donating toward Bonita's treatment. Your generosity will help us save her as well as other dogs with medical needs. Bonita will need to take it slow for the next few months as her body will need time to heal.

Sally and her Cars Puppies were rescued in the south by another group. As they wanted to do right by this lovely family, they began reaching out to other groups who would be able to support the family until they were ready to find forever homes of their own. When asked to welcome this family into the MAGSR family, we immediately said yes. 

Flo is a bundle of energy and joy. She is cute as a button and brings happiness to everyone around her. Well socialized in her foster home, Flo is a match for a household with kids, cats, or other dogs. Although Flo's foster family has given her an excellent start, it is imperative that they continue to keep Flo well socialized. This will help her develop into a stable adult. Although Flo is absolutely adorable, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy antics, they get into things, and they will chew on inappropriate items. With time, patience, and training, Flo will develop into the good canine citizen that we know she is destined to become.

Bear was cherished by his family. However, due to circumstances beyond their control, they needed to surrender him to MAGSR. Although this was a heart wrenching decision, they were doing what was in Bear's best interest. We promised Bear's family that we would find him the perfect forever home to live out his golden years. 

Bear is a big, beautiful, friendly guy. His family clearly did a nice job socializing him with people. Bear loves getting attention and will lean in for some extra love. As Bear's family took him to training, he knows several commands. However, a brush up is always a good thing. Bear will benefit from a refresher course with his new family as this will also help him bond to them. When in his playful mood, Bear enjoys the water and a chuck-it ball. He is happy to play fetch for a bit but then likes to take his ball to a comfortable spot and munch on it for a bit. As Bear has some strong jaws, a sturdy ball like a chuck-it is important. Bear is looking for a calm and comfortable household where he can get plenty of attention, regular snuggles, and lots of love. If Bear sounds like the right dog for your household, ask to meet this amazing guy today!

Description: Elvis and Priscilla were abandoned by their family. Fortunately, when a good Samaritan found them, they moved quickly to get them help. Elvis and Priscilla were brought to a local shelter where staff immediately began addressing their needs. Underweight, under-socialized, and lacking vetting care, shelter staff recognized that Elvis and Priscilla would need some extra support to move forward. When contacted to see if we could help them find their forever home, MAGSR was happy to step up.  After several months in foster together and a trial separation it was determined that Elvis and Pricilla are not a true bonded pair as they do not appropriately care and nurture each other's needs.  In their best interest, MAGSR decided to separate them in order to find them the best permanent home possible for them to continue to grow and develop into beloved family pets.  

It is evident that Elvis has not always been treated kindly by people and although shy at first, with some gentle words, high value treats and loving pets he comes around. Elvis is always eager to learn and is building his confidence each day in his foster home.  He is a very loving, gentle and kind dog.  Elvis strives for his humans approval and responds well with verbal praise, patience, and high value treats.  He craves head rubs, hugs and snuggle time in the evening.  Elvis is housebroken and crate trained.  He really enjoys the company of other dogs - big, small, young, and old and loves romping in the backyard!   He has never met a dog he didn't like.  Elvis knows some basic obedience; sit, down, come, no and stay.  Elvis easily makes friends of both two and four legged varieties and has a happy go lucky disposition.  Elvis' heartworm treatment is complete and he is no longer on restricted activity.  He is ready to embark on the active lifestyle he deserves. If this sounds like the dog for you, ask to meet Elvis, you will not be disappointed!

Beckett and his siblings - Adira, Knox, and Isa - were dumped on a country road. Emaciated and clearly lacking care, these babies needed help and fast. When a kind member of the community discovered what had happened to the puppies, they moved quickly to help these babies find safety. Recognizing that these little orphans would have their best chance at finding safe and loving forever homes with a rescue, a plea for help went out. 

Beckett is a goofball. Having the benefit of recuperating in a foster home, he has had the opportunity to start learning about the comforts of living in a home. His foster household has also taken the important step of beginning to socialize him with other people, dogs, and situations. Continued socialization is critical to Beckett's success as he grows. Although Beckett is a honey, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy antics, they get into things, and they will chew on inappropriate items. With time, patience, and training,  Beckett will develop into the good canine citizen we know he is destined to become.

Maui was picked up as a stray and brought to a local shelter. Although she waited patiently for her family to claim her, no one arrived to take her home. When we got the call to help Maui move forward, we immediately welcomed her to the MAGSR family. 

As a typical young shepherd, Maui is full of energy. She is a playful and affectionate girl. Ready for a game of fetch at any time, Maui is hoping that her new family likes to throw the ball around. In order to burn her energy in a healthy way, Maui's new family will need to exercise both her body and her mind on a regular basis. Highly motivated by both treats and toys, Maui will be a joy to work with and training will be a breeze. Training will not only help Maui bond to her new family but it will also help her develop into a good canine citizen. 

Unfortunately, we have learned that Maui is heartworm positive. This diagnosis could have been avoided had she been provided with monthly heartworm preventatives. The cost of Maui's entire treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Treatment is expensive but sweet Maui is more than worth the cost. Please consider donating toward Maui's treatment. Your generosity will help us save her as well as other dogs with medical needs. Maui will need to take it slow over the next few months.

Cash is a handsome guy. He and another furry friend wandered up into a yard in the south and decided that it might be a nice place to stay. Fortunately, these dogs picked the right yard as the family immediately started looking for their family. Although they worked with animal control and local groups to find the dogs' family, no one claimed them. Another rescue was able to bring in Cash's buddy; however, with so many rescues at capacity, one was all they could bring in. When asked if we could bring Cash into rescue so he could move forward with a forever family, MAGSR immediately stepped forward.

As is typical of many young shepherds, Cash is playful, energetic, and looking for leadership. He does very well with a calm handler who can show him the ropes. A social guy, Cash enjoys the company of people of all ages. A big fan of toys and treats, Cash will be a star student in training class. Training is essential for all dogs as it helps them bond with their new families, as well as, develop the skills needed to become good canine citizens. Cash is looking for a family that will exercise his body and his mind on a daily basis. He will also benefit from regular socialization in order to build confidence and stability. If this handsome guy sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet him today!

Handsome Bandit was picked up as a stray in the south. Although he waited for his family to claim him, no one came looking. Recognizing that Bandit would be most successful in a foster home, a member of the shelter staff took Bandit in until he could find a place within a rescue. When we heard that Bandit needed help to move forward, we immediately welcomed him into the MAGSR family. 

Bandit is a large and stable guy. Although he was on his own for a bit before arriving at the shelter, he had clearly been well socialized with people. As Bandit was the alpha of a pack when out on his own, he does better with female dogs. He can pass other male dogs and maintain his calm demeanor; however, he will be most successful in a household without other males. It is clear that Bandit has begun to learn some leash manners and is comfortable being handled. However, just like any new dog, he will benefit from training.  Training will go a long way with this handsome guy as it will not only help him bond with his new family, but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen. 

Unfortunately, we have learned that Bandit is heartworm positive. This condition could have been avoided had he been provided with monthly heartworm preventatives. MAGSR has begun his heartworm treatment and Bandit is doing well. The cost of his entire treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Treatment is expensive, but Bandit is clearly worth the cost. Please consider donating toward Bandit's treatment. Your generosity will help us save him and other dogs with medical needs. Although Bandit will need to take it slow over the next few months, he will be back to full strength once his treatment is finished. If your household is looking for a friendly and stable guy, please ask to meet Bandit today.

Murray Clutchburn is a bundle of energy and joy. He is cute as a button and brings happiness to everyone around him.

Sweet Ranger was brought to a local vet as his family decided that they wanted him euthanized. It was evident that Ranger needed some medical care for an untreated skin infection; however, staff members quickly recognized that this delightful guy deserved a chance at life with a family that would commit to him for a lifetime. Fortunately, they were able to convince Ranger's family to surrender him to them. Once safe, the vet staff immediately began addressing Ranger's needs. 

Ranger had untreated skin issues that had caused a lot of hair-loss, flaking, and itchiness. It is believed that everything began with an allergy that when untreated and resulted in a secondary yeast/fungal infection that got out of hand. He has been given a course of antibiotics, steroids, and medicated baths which have already begun to have a positive impact. In addition to skin issues, sweet Ranger also had significant bilateral ear infections that have since been treated. Although his appearance may not match his impressive personality right now, we fully expect him to regrow his lovely coat. 

Please consider donating to Ranger's care.

A stable and friendly guy, Ranger seems to enjoy the company of his people. He is a playful guy and will happily fetch a ball and drop it for another throw. A big fan of squeaky toys, Ranger smiles while he plays. Although he is still a little sensitive around his ears, which is likely due to the severity of his ear infections, Ranger loves attention and happily rewards his people with kisses. Once comfortable, he will ask for belly rubs as well. As a social guy, Ranger can be vocal at first when left alone but he quiets down quickly. Having had the opportunity to meet dogs of a variety of sizes and temperaments, Ranger's confident and easy-going personality wins everyone over. Ranger will need to continue to have regular baths to help his skin clear up and will need to be kept on a low ingredient food in order to keep his allergies in check. This sweet boy is looking for a family that will commit to loving him for a lifetime. Could that be with you?

Frix was picked up as a stray in the south. Shelter staff knew that this little guy had limited options and began working hard to help him find rescue placement. When asked if we could bring Frix to safety, we immediately welcomed him to the MAGSR family. 

Frix is a delightful little guy. His beautiful eyes simply melt your heart. As is true of all puppies, Frix is playful, energetic, and full of endless cuteness. He will quickly win over his forever family with his amazing personality. We have begun to socialize Frix with people and other animals. However, it is imperative that Frix's new family continues this process as it will help him develop into a stable adult. Although Frix is as cute as can be, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family.

Annika was returned to MAGSR's care after incidents with the other dog of the household, as well as the cat. She will be looking for a forever family where she can be the sole animal in the home to be the center of attention. 

Annika is a beautiful young adult with a big personality. She is extremely intelligent and observant of her environment. She also forms strong bonds with her humans and is very affectionate. Annika will be protective of the house once she sees it as her place. She will thrive with a confident handler and structured training to bring out her potential, because she lives for meaningful interactions with her people. She is active and a jumper, and may be a candidate for agility training or other activities that engage her intelligence.

She loves tummy rubs and affection, walks, and interactive games. She learns quickly when pepperoni treats are on hand, and will even play a good game of hide and seek the treat. Annika likes her crate and is fully house trained. She walks well on the leash, learns commands quickly, loves car rides and exploring new environments like trails and parks.

If sweet Annika sounds like the right match for your family, please ask to meet her today. 

Lovely Lady and her brother Roscoe were part of a litter of puppies that were bred for sale. When she did not catch the eye of potential buyers, her owner kept her on the property for potential breeding when she was older. Although given food and water, Lady's owner did not provide her with adequate shelter, socialization, or vetting care. When her living conditions were discovered, another rescuer worked with Lady's owner to have her and her brother surrendered to MAGSR.

Lady is in many ways your typical young GSD. She is playful, curious, and energetic. Although she does need a little time to warm up to new people. Lady's delightful personality quickly shines through. She easily wins you over with her puppy antics. As Lady was previously kept outdoors with a metal shed for shelter, she has not had the opportunity to learn the ins and outs of a comfortable household and a soft bed. Her new family will need to slowly introduce her to the household so that she has time to adjust. As is true with all dogs, Lady will thrive in a household where she has structure, routine, and leadership. This will help her develop the stability and confidence that all dogs need to be successful. Daily exercise and interaction will also contribute to Lady's success.
