Lovely Princess was picked up by animal control as a stray. Once safe, Princess waited patiently in a shelter for a family but no one came to get her. Fortunately, the staff at the shelter fell in love with this girl and did everything they could to help her find her way to MAGSR. Princess is a lovable girl. She is intelligent and very food motivated. It takes Princess a little time to adjust to a new environment. However, we all need a little time to adjust to changes. Once comfortable, Princess loves to be with her people. She is a big fan of a good head rub and some treats. Princess is new to the MAGSR family. As we get to know her better, we will post updates. If Princess sounds like the right match for your household, please ask to meet her today.

Scarlet is one of the Momma Bear's sweet puppies. This lovely family found themselves at a shelter where no one came to claim them. Along with her mother and siblings, Ash, Pumpkin, and Autumn, Scarlet made the long journey to MAGSR with the help of some good Samaritans and a fantastic transport crew.

As is typical of all puppies, Scarlet is cute, fun-loving, and playful. She brings wiggles and smiles wherever she goes. Although Scarlet is 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 and can be mischievous – they will whine, have accidents, get into things, and chew on inappropriate things. With time, patience, guidance and training, Scarlett will develop into the good canine citizen she is destined to become. If Scarlet sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet her today.

Raina was given to her family by a friend who felt she would be a good match for their household. Although she was clearly loved by her family, Raina struggled in a city environment. As a result, her family made the difficult decision to surrender Raina to MAGSR so that she could find the family and living environment that would help her develop into the incredible girl they knew she could be. Raina is a friendly but driven girl. As is typical of most shepherds, Raina is intelligent, active, and alert. In order to meet with success, Raina will need both her body and mind exercised daily. She is not a couch potato and will do best with an active family. Although Raina is working on her interactions with other dogs, she would prefer a family where she can be the only dog so that she can be the center of attention. Raina is housebroken and crate trained. She also knows a few commands. However, as is true of all shepherds, Raina will need to attend training in order to develop into the amazing shepherd we know she is destined to be. Training will not only help Raina develop into an amazing dog, but it will also help her bond with her new family. If this active lady sounds like a good match for your household, ask to meet her today. 

Hunter, along with his siblings, Allie and Kate, was surrendered to MAGSR as their family could no longer provide for them. This was a very hard decision, but Hunter's family knew that MAGSR would find him and his siblings safe and loving forever homes. 

Hunter is a loving guy. He has lived with kids and other dogs. Although Hunter was clearly well loved by his family, he is a little confused by all the changes in his life and needs a little time to adjust. When given that chance, Hunter warms up and quickly becomes a playful puppy. Hunter is looking for a family that will commit to him for a lifetime. Could that be you?

Once upon a time, our lovely Shadow had a home and a family. However, her family decided they didn't want to care for her anymore and dumped her in a high kill shelter in the south. When no one came to adopt Shadow, MAGSR stepped in to help her find a family that would commit to her for a lifetime.

Shadow is gorgeous and affectionate. She seems to enjoy the company of her canine and human friends. It is clear that she has been well socialized and is very responsive to the handler. Unfortunately, Shadow has tested heartworm positive. This diagnosis could have been avoided if she had been kept on monthly heartworm preventatives. Shadow is in the beginning stages of her heartworm treatment; however, the cost of her entire treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Treatment is expensive, but Shadow is certainly worth the cost. Please donate toward her treatment, your generosity will help us save her and other dogs with medical needs. Although Shadow will need to take it slow over the next few months, she will be back to full strength once her treatment is finished. 

Shadow is looking for a loving forever home that will keep her safe. Please consider providing Shadow with the home she so clearly deserves. 

Sweet Winnie 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.

Winnie is a beautiful girl who could use a little extra care. Underweight and clearly used for breeding, it is evident that Winnie 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. Winnie will do best with a household that will go slow and allow her to build confidence. As is true of all dogs, Winnie will also benefit from training as it will help her bond with her new family, as well as, become a good canine citizen. If this sweet girl sounds like a good match for your household, please ask to meet her today. 

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.

Lovely Valentina found her way into a crowded shelter with significant puncture wounds to her neck and a fractured back leg. Based upon the size and type of wounds on her neck, it is thought that Valentines wounds were inflicted by another dog.

Valentina is seeing a combination of vets and orthopedic specialists to make sure that she gets the care she so clearly deserves. It is reported that even with all the pain she is in, Valentina is a sweetheart and brings everyone around her joy. Valentina already has a big personality that will keep her new family busy.

Claude's previous owners decided that they no longer wanted a dog in the house so they put him outside. Unfortunately, some of the neighbors were not happy about having a dog living outside in the neighborhood, as a result, they threatened to shoot Claude. Luckily, a good samaritan heard about Claude and raced to get him out of this situation before it was too late. 

When asked if we could help Claude find a forever home that would provide the love and safety he deserved, MAGSR stepped up. Everyone that meets Claude seems to fall in love with his friendly mannerisms. He is housebroken and is working on crate training. Living with both a cat and an energetic dog, Claude has been introduced to the resident cat and showed interest but nothing concerning. He loves playing with his foster brother.

Maggie was picked up by animal control and brought to a local shelter. Upon her arrival, it was very clear to the shelter staff that Maggie is a victim of cruelty and neglect. Maggie was extremely emaciated. Her body was covered in scabs, sores, and wounds. She was weak from lack of food and needed encouragement to get up and move. Although the shelter searched for her abusers, no one was identified. Recognizing that Maggie needed help, the shelter worked to find a safe place for Maggie to rest and recuperate.

Fortunately, Maggie has found safety in the MAGSR family. Despite all that Maggie has endured, she is a loving and affectionate dog. Once given the opportunity to warm up to new people, Maggie is all about leaning in for head rubs and giving little kisses. As Maggie has begun eating more regularly and is receiving the medical care she needs, her foster family is beginning to see her personality shine. True to the breed, Maggie is loyal and wants to be with her people. This also gives her the chance to get a few extra head rubs throughout the day. Maggie has clearly lived in a house prior to her arrival at MAGSR. She is housebroken and has some general household manners. At this time, it doesn't appear that Maggie knows any commands. As she is still recovering, her foster family has decided to slowly introduce Maggie to the children and animals in the home. However, Maggie seems to thrive in a calm environment.

All Maggie needs now is a loving forever home that will love and protect her through her gold years. If Maggie sounds like a good match for your household, please ask to meet her today.

Cody was surrendered to a shelter for reasons unknown to us.  According to his records it states that he lived with children, we have yet to evaluate him with children.  It also states that he lived with cats and did well with them.  He also lived with a female GSD.  Cody has some skin issues that we are taking care of, we are unsure if it's caused by allergies or not.  In his previous home they described him as being a sweet boy, but was protective of his family.  Cody will be off for a full exam with our vets, we will post an update once he has been seen.

Sadie and Mazie were well-loved members of their family. Unfortunately, due to circumstances outside of their control, the girls' family needed to find them a new home. MAGSR was honored to step-up and provide Sadie and Mazie with a safe haven while we looked for the perfect forever for these girls. 

Sadie is a sweet girl who looks for guidance and leadership from those around her. When given calm and consistent leadership, Sadie responds positively. Sadie, similar to Mazie, is a little confused by all of the changes in her life. As a result, she needs a little extra time to warm up to new people and situations.

If Sadie sounds like a good match for your household, ask to meet her today. 

Jasper was dumped by his former owner on a country road and picked up by animal control.  When our volunteer picked him up from the shelter it was obvious he was not feeling well and not in great shape.  He immediately went into medical boarding at one of our vets offices, where he received the best care.  He had a severe respiratory and ear infection, hair loss with a skin infection and was not eating.  All needed tests were performed and treatment was started.  As time went on he was still not wanting to eat, radiographs were taken and it was found he had foreign objects in him.  He was immediately taken to surgery where a number of assorted items were removed from his stomach.

After spending 3 weeks in medical boarding Jasper was able to go home with his foster.  He is now on the mend, starting to eat on his own and finally wagging his tail some.  He still needs to put on some more weight but his foster will be sure he never misses a much needed meal.

Through all of this he has been nothing but sweet and friendly.  Jasper is now looking for his forever family, one that will treat him with care and love him for his lifetime.  He is ready to leave his past behind and looks forward to a future of living in a home, proper nutrition, walks, playtime and lots of cuddles from his humans.

 Diesel is a large male about 1.5 years old but acts like an 8 month old puppy. He requires a strong owner who will hold him accountable, and training is a must. Diesel will require daily exercise to keep his energy in check. He still has some bad habits that will need to be worked on. Diesel is mouthy when excited, however, he responds well to correction.  He also counter surfs if not supervised. If he isn’t properly supervised in the yard he will dig. Once he has been exercised he is much calmer and listens very well.

Diesel rides well in a car and loves to go on walks. He has good leash manners and has been non reactive to dogs or people while on walks. Diesel has lived in a home with 7 other dogs while in foster without any issues. He crates well and is house broken. While in his foster home he has made great improvement regarding the negative behaviors listed here but will require continued work. He is a very sweet and lovable boy who needs the right family, to get the excess energy out and teach him what he needs to know.
