Handsome L.B. was picked up as a stray and brought to a shelter in the south. Although he was as friendly as can be, L.B. had hair loss, was emaciated, and tested positive for heartworms. A local rescue recognized that L.B. was a special guy that needed more care than the shelter could provide. As a result, they pulled L.B. with the hope that they could start his road to recovery while looking for a breed specific rescue that would find L.B. an amazing forever family. When we learned that L.B. needed help with the next step of his journey, we welcomed him to the MAGSR family.
L.B. is a sweet, endearing, and lovable guy. Although we do not know anything about his past, it is evident that at some point he was well socialized with people and other dogs. As is true of all GSDs, L.B. will thrive with structure, routine, and leadership. He is hoping that his forever family enjoys long walks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. True of all dogs, training is critical for L.B. Training will not only help L.B. build a strong, healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen. L.B. has waited patiently for his forever family. Could that be with you?

MAGSR received a call from another local rescue that a large group of puppies were in need of placement as soon as possible. In total there were 21 pups who would need rescue placement. As this was too many puppies for one group to support, the hope was that we could work together to get everyone into safe and loving homes. With 8 pups finding safety with the other rescue, our team began working together to see if we could find loving foster homes for the remaining 13. Although this was a rather large undertaking, team MAGSR worked quickly to put everything in place. The "Christmas Puppies" - Rudolph, Hermy, Yukon, Clarice, Moonracer, Donner, Vixen, Claus, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Comet, and Cupid - have arrived and are hoping to find forever homes for the holidays.
Having been born in what appears to be less than ideal situations, the "Christmas Puppies" arrived having missed out on early vetting, exposure to new environments, and socialization with people outside their immediate caregivers. Now that they are living with MAGSR foster families, their opportunities are endless. All 13 puppies are going to see our amazing vetting partners so that we can begin vaccinations and make sure that everyone is healthy. In their foster homes, these puppies are learning about toys, treats, regular meals, and the comfort of soft, warm beds. They are also beginning the important process of learning the ins and outs of living in a home. As very intelligent pups everyone is excited to begin. As they move forward, it is critical that their new families provide the "Christmas puppies" with regular socialization with people and other animals. A well socialized pup will become a stable adult. Although these babies are absolutely adorable, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your home with endless puppy antics. With time, training, patience, and socialization, they will develop into good canine citizens. If you are interested in welcoming a member of the "Christmas puppy" litter into your household, ask to meet them today!

Lacy was surrendered to us due to a baby on the way and there would be no room for Lacy. It is obvious she was not well cared for as she came to us obese, weighing 107 lbs. and should only weigh around 70 lbs. She also came to us with a skin infection and some fur loss, which our vet feels is caused by lack of care and poor quality food. She is being treated for the skin infection, put on a diet, good quality food, along with exercise that she obviously did not get in her last home. She is settling into her foster home and dealing with the changes of her new life. She is confused with some whining, but that is expected with the changes. She is very sweet and friendly with everyone she has met.

Young Jockey was picked up as a stray and brought to a local shelter quite a few times. This last time Jockey got off the farm her family made the tough decision to surrender her as they were afraid she may get hit by a car. Recognizing that a GSD is often most successful if placed through a breed specific rescue, shelter staff worked with MAGSR to help move Jockey forward. We are so excited to have welcomed Jockey to the MAGSR family.
Thriving on attention and interaction, Jockey loves to be doted upon and is incredibly outgoing. She is certainly a work in progress as she doesn't quite realize that she is a full-grown shepherd and certainly needs some work on her manners. Jockey will be a delight in training class. Not only will training help Jockey bond to her new family but it will also help her develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. Training helps to focus the mind and develop confidence. Jockey will benefit from both.
Jockey has not had many interactions with dogs that we are aware of and as a result, we are still learning about her doggy socialization skills.
Jockey is a work in progress and incredibly worth it! If you are interested in helping Jockey learn the good life please inquire.

History: Stray to Shelter
Sweet Ollie was picked up as a stray and brought to a shelter in the south. Although he waited patiently for his family to come and claim him, no one stepped forward for this handsome guy. Shelter staff worked hard to try to help Ollie find a forever family; however, with shelter numbers over capacity, Ollie was scheduled to be euthanized. Recognizing that this guy deserved a life and a family of his very own, a final plea went out. Fortunately, we heard Ollie's story and stepped in to help him move forward.
Ollie is a friendly and interactive guy. He simply loves everyone. Charismatic and goofy, it is hard to keep from smiling in his presence. Good with people and with dogs, Ollie was clearly well-socialized at some point along his journey. He is an all around good guy with your typical GSD energy. As a young GSD, Ollie is looking for a forever family that will provide him with the structure, routine, and leadership that all dogs crave. As we do not know anything about Ollie's past, we do not know how much experience has had in a household. However, based upon his stable personality and friendly demeanor, he has known love and companionship. Ollie, like any new dog, will likely need a little time to adjust to the rules and routines of his forever home. However, with patience and clear routines he will thrive. Training will go a long way with Ollie. Not only will this help him bond with his forever family but it will also help him develop the skills needed to be a good canine citizen. Ollie is looking for a forever family that will love him for a lifetime. If this sweet guy sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet him today.

Lucy's family fell on hard times and could no longer afford to provide her with the care that they knew she deserved. As a result, they decided to surrender her to a local shelter where they hoped that Lucy would find a forever family that would provide her with a lifetime of love. Although the shelter staff recognized that Lucy was an incredible girl, they also knew that shepherds are a special breed that are often most successful when placed within a breed specific rescue.

Although she never hurt them, she was known to chase them for fun. Having lived in a household, Lucy knows many of the ins and outs of living in a home. However, as is true of any new dog, she will need time to adjust to the structures and routines of her forever home. Lucy will thrive in an environment with structure, routine, and leadership.

Ada and her buddy, Amelia, found themselves in a tough situation when their owner got into some trouble and the girls were confiscated. Although they were brought to a shelter where they waited for a forever family that would help them move forward, the girls were not one of the lucky ones that found a home. Staff members adored these girls and kept hoping to find them homes; however, with overcrowding at the shelter and no options available, the girls were placed on the euthanasia list. A final plea went out for help. Fortunately, this plea reached MAGSR. With no time to spare, we immediately stepped up and welcomed both girls into the family.

Theo was found dumped on a country road with another pup. Both pups were lucky as they were picked up by another rescue and brought to safety. Although they waited patiently for a family to claim them, no one came forward for either dog. Recognizing that these babies needed a rescue that could move them forward into safe and loving homes, both babies were transferred into MAGSR's care. Theo was adopted out as a baby. His family provided him with socialization and training opportunities, which has helped him develop the skills needed to meet with success. Unfortunately, Theo's family could no longer care for him. As a result, they reached out to MAGSR to return him to our care. We promised we would find Theo the perfect forever family.
This is a sweet, interactive, and playful boy. Having been well-socialized with dogs of all sizes, Theo enjoys the company of his furry companions and understands doggy social structure. Theo has also had the opportunity to socialize with people. Although he enjoys the company of a variety of people, he is uncomfortable with children. The fast movements, loud sounds, and sometimes less than gentle touches from children, can be intimidating to many animals. As a result, Theo is looking for a forever family without children so that he can enjoy a life without potential stressors. Having lived in a home, Theo has learned the ins and outs of family life. He is crate trained and housebroken. He greatly enjoys a comfortable bed and loves cuddles. Well versed with toys, Theo can happily play on his own or with a buddy. His goofy personality will keep you smiling. Having completed basic obedience, Theo already knows a lot of commands and has a great foundation. However, continued training is a must. Training is essential as it will not only help Theo develop a strong, healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen. If your family is looking for an amazing pup with a great foundation of skills, ask to meet Theo today.
