Sweet Olaf was confiscated from his family as they were not properly caring for him. He waited patiently at a shelter till he could be released to a rescue for placement. When that day came, we were all too happy to welcome this friendly guy to the MAGSR family. 

Olaf is an affectionate and playful guy. He is social and enjoys the company of other dogs. As a lover of warm hugs, Olaf believes that everyone wants to be his buddy. Only about a year old, Olaf still has a lot to learn about becoming a good canine citizen. However, with training, patience, and leadership, we are sure he will succeed. If Olaf sounds like a good match for your family, please ask to meet him today. 

Lovely Kabona was confiscated from her owner after being left outside to fend for herself. The shelter that took Kabona in recognized that she was undersocialized and would need some extra support in order to move forward. When they reached out to MAGSR, we knew we needed to step in.

Kabona is a lovely, young girl who thrives with consistency and structure. Due to the lack of opportunities provided to her prior to her arrival at MAGSR, she has a lot to learn about living in a loving household. However, she has already begun to make significant strides. Kabona is a big fan of treats and toys. In fact, she thinks she should have all the toys at once. I mean who could blame her. The more toys you put in one spot, the more fun you can have. In just a week, Kabona has made significant progress crate training and house breaking. She is clearly an intelligent girl. Although Kabona is showing us that in the right circumstances she will thrive, it is important that her forever family recognize that Kabona will need slow introductions to new people and situations. This will give her the opportunity to adjust to her surroundings and meet with success. Kabona will benefit greatly from training as this will help her further develop her overall confidence; it will also help her bond with her new family. Kabona is patiently waiting for her forever home. Are you the right match for her?

Crowley's family made the difficult decision to return him to MAGSR, when Crowley was unable to adjust to living with the resident cats. As he moves forward, Crowley would do best in a home without small animals as his prey drive is simply too strong for them. 

Crowley is your typical intelligent, playful, protective, energetic young shepherd. He is a busy guy who will do best in a home where both his mind and body are exercised regularly. Both housebroken and crate trained, Crowley understands the general rules of the household; however, all young dogs will try something from time to time. Having had the benefit of some training, Crowley knows basic commands such as, sit, down, drop it, leave it, and release. Although Crowley has already begun some training, it is essential that this continue as it will help him bond with his new family. If Crowley sounds like a good match for your household, ask to meet him today. 

Fluffy Thorson and his little family found themselves alone and in need on the streets of a big city. Fortunately, a good samaritan found the little family, and got them to safety. When no one came to claim this little family, MAGSR stepped in to help them all find safe and loving homes. 

Thorson is a playful and social guy. He, just like his brother, is a big fan of cuddles. While on the streets, Thorson incurred an injury and has resulted in paraphimosis. He will need additional monitoring and a surgery or two in order to heal properly. Multiple surgeries will be expensive, but we know that Thorson is more than worth the cost. Please consider donating to Thorsen's care as this will not only help us provide him with the support he needs but it will help us help other dogs with medical needs. 

Although Thorson is a sweet guy, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy antics and can be mischievous – they will whine, have accidents, get into things, and chew on inappropriate things. With time, patience, guidance and training, Thorson will develop into the good canine citizen he is destined to become. 

Sweet Adley was picked up as a stray by animal control and brought to a shelter where she waited for someone to claim her. When no one came, an animal control officer contacted MAGSR to see if we could help this lovely lady find a home that would provide her with the love, attention, and safety that she so clearly deserves. Adley is a beautiful girl who could use a little extra care as she was clearly used for breeding, it is evident that Adley has endured some hardship. However, she is ready to move forward with a family who will love her and provide her with the guidance and leadership that all shepherds crave. Adley will do best with an experienced GSD household that will take a leadership role with her. She is a young dog that is a very active and strong-minded girl that will benefit from training as it will help her bond with her new family, as well as, become a good canine citizen. If this energetic girl sounds like a good match for your household, please ask to meet her today.

Sweet Rayleigh and her brother Ryker were surrendered to MAGSR when their owner could not afford to care for them. Both pups were in need of some extra TLC when they arrived; however, our incredible network of volunteers was able to get them everything they needed. They are cuddly and playful pups who bring smiles and laughter wherever they go.  

Although Rayleigh is an absolute joy, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy antics and can be mischievous – they will whine, have accidents, get into things, and chew on inappropriate things. With time, patience, guidance and training, Rayleigh will develop into the good canine citizen we know she is destined to become. 

Klaus is a handsome and friendly guy who has survived years of neglect and abuse. Fortunately, another rescue was able to intervene and bring Klaus into their care. This life changing event made all the difference for this energetic guy. Recognizing that Klaus would have his best chance at finding the forever home in another region, Klaus was transferred to MAGSR. Although we are still getting to know Klaus, it is clear that even with all the suffering he has endured that he is a good dog. As is true of any dog, Klaus will thrive in a stable household that will provide him with love, guidance, consistency and leadership. As we have the opportunity to learn more about Klaus, we will post updates. If Klaus sounds like a fit for your household, please ask to meet him today.   

Goofy and his siblings - Goose, Grace, and Ginger - were confiscated from a puppy mill operation. They are all emaciated and in need of positive interaction. The shelter that confiscated this little family knew that these dogs would need extra support in order to find their forever homes. When MAGSR got the call to take them in, we started putting plans in place to meet their needs.

Although they have survived a horrible situation, Goofy and his siblings are very loveable dogs. Definitely a little skittish, these dogs will excel with patience, leadership, and positive experiences. Goofy is a friendly guy who appreciates gentle but confident handling. He leans in for affection and has easily won over the hearts of our volunteers. We look forward to getting to know Goofy over the next few weeks. If he sounds like a good match for your family, ask to meet him. 

Loki's family loved him dearly; however, due to some unforeseen circumstances, they found themselves unable to provide him with the attention and care he deserves. As a result, Loki's family made the difficult decision to surrender him to MAGSR. We have promised Loki's family that we will find him a safe and loving household. 

Loki is a young and energetic shepherd. Friendly and still puppy-like, he is learning to look to the handler for direction. As is common with most shepherds, Loki thrives with structure and leadership. A household that can provide him with routine and direction will help him gain confidence and develop into a stable adult. Loki will benefit greatly from training; this will not only help him bond to his forever family but it will also help him become a good canine citizen. Although Loki has lived with other dogs, cats, and children, he will need time to adjust to his new circumstances. If Loki sounds like a good match for your household, ask to meet him today. 

Lovely little Casey is one of Macy's puppies. Just like her amazing mom, Casey is a survivor in more ways than one. She was one of the three puppies out of a litter of five that survived the dreaded parvo - Casey, Lacy, and Lucy - had the help of many people to arrive safely in MAGSR's care. This sweet and goofy girl will bring you endless smiles. 

Casey is an adorable girl and is fortunate to have the sweetness and ability to survive just like her mother. This playful girl brings smiles to everyone around her. 

Although Casey is an incredible girl, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy antics and can be mischievous – they will whine, have accidents, get into things, and chew on inappropriate things. With time, patience, guidance, and training, Casey will develop into the good canine citizen she is destined to become. If Casey sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet this adorable girl today. 

Sherman was a stray who was brought into a local shelter. When no one came to claim this handsome guy, MAGSR decided to step in to help him find his forever home. Due to Sherman's circumstances, we don't have a lot of information regarding how he does in a household or how he interacts with kids or cats. However, we do know that Sherman is a strong, playful guy. He is a big fan of toys and will happily play with his people. Although he can be non-reactive around other dogs, he can be a little pushy when first meeting new dogs and will need to be given time to be introduced properly. Sherman is looking for a home that will help him further develop into the good canine citizen we know he can be. Please watch for updates as we get to know Sherman. 

Sheldon came to us from a shelter as he was brought in as a stray. We do not know a lot about Sheldon's past but, we have gotten to know more about him while he has been in our care.  Clearly under socialized and possibly mistreated early on, Sheldon arrived lacking the confidence needed to meet with success. However, with leadership and structure, Sheldon has made great strides.

MAGSR was fortunate to be able to provide Sheldon with the opportunity to work with a trainer in order to develop his basic obedience while building his overall confidence. At this time Sheldon is an absolute dream when working through commands. However, when placed in new situations, Sheldon often will revert back to his fearful self. Continued structure and practice will help Sheldon recognize the importance of looking to the handler for direction. This will further enhance his overall confidence while developing into the good canine citizen he is destined to become.

Sheldon would be most successful in a family that has experience with an insecure dog. His forever family will need to continue his training and confidence building without putting him in unpredictable situations. As Sheldon is uncomfortable with quick movements or busy households, he would be most successful in a home without children.

If Sheldon sounds like a dog that would be a fit for your family and you have the time and patience to work him through some challenges, he will reward you with his loyalty, puppy kisses and tail wags.

Sheldon has been through a four-week basic obedience leave-and-learn class with Stateline Canine in Hanover, PA. His adoptive family will be able to set-up a lesson to go over all his commands.

Zoe is a survivor. Owned by a hoarder in the south and used for breeding purposes, Zoe's life had been filled with pain and suffering. However, when another rescue stepped up and removed Zoe and several other dogs from the premises, Zoe's life changed forever. Recognizing that Zoe would have her best chance at finding a forever home in the north, she was transferred to MAGSR. Although we are still getting to know Zoe, it is clear that even with all of the suffering that she has endured, he is a sweet and affectionate girl. Zoe needs a little time to adjust to new people and new situations; however, we are impressed by her kind and resilient nature. As is true of all other dogs, Zoe will be most successful when provided with structure and leadership. Training will help her further develop her confidence as well as bond with her new family.

Although Zoe is clearly a special girl, we have learned that she is heartworm positive. This diagnosis could have been avoided if her caretakers had kept her on monthly heartworm preventatives. Zoe has begun her heartworm treatment and is doing well. The cost of Zoe's entire treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Treatment is expensive, but Zoe is definitely worth the cost. Please donate toward Zoe's treatment, your generosity will help us save her and other dogs with medical needs. Although Zoe will need to take it slow over the next few months, she will be back to full strength once her treatment is finished. If your household is the right match for Zoe, please ask to meet her.

Gunter seems to know that the past is behind him and he is more than ready to move forward. Gunter brings joy to everyone around him with his goofy antics.

Gemma and her sister, Requi, lived with a family who got tired of having dogs so they left them outside leaving the dogs with limited resources. As if this wasn't hard enough, the family then decided to move away and abandoned the girls along with two other dogs on the property. Another rescue group heard about these traumatized pups and decided to try and intervene. That's when MAGSR got a call. As MAGSR has a policy of never leaving families behind, we brought all 4 dogs to safety. Fortunately, MAGSR was able to work with other rescues to find safe homes for the two additional dogs on the property.

Gemma is a lovely girl. In her previous home, she lived with kids and other dogs. It was reported that she greatly enjoyed the children in her home. Although Gemma has clearly suffered at the hands of her previous family, she has been friendly and interactive with the volunteers she has met. Our volunteers have been very impressed with her sweet and stable nature.

Gemma is looking for a home that will love and commit to her for a lifetime. Could that be with you?

Tucker's family loved him greatly but felt that they could not provide him with the life he deserved. As a result, they made the difficult decision to surrender Tucker to MAGSR. Tucker is an incredible guy. Confident, playful, and very responsive to the handler, it is highly evident that Tucker's family worked hard to help him develop into a good canine citizen. As a fun-loving guy, Tucker greatly enjoys his time playing with a ball or stuffed toys. He will keep you entertained with his antics. Having previously lived in a household, Tucker is housebroken, crate trained, and understands many of the rules of a household. However, as is true for any new dog, he will need to adjust the structure of a new household. Having previously attended training classes, Tucker knows a variety of commands. Although this is a fantastic start, Tucker will need to attend training with his new family as it will help him develop a bond. Tucker is patiently waiting for his forever family, could that be with you?
