Sweet and Spunky Talon was picked up as a stray. Although animal services waited for her family to come and claim her, no one stepped forward. Recognizing that a shelter is no place for a puppy, staff reached out to MAGSR to see if we could welcome this wiggly girl into the rescue. Really, who could resist that sweet face. Talon is your typical puppy - curious, energetic, and playful. She is a confident girl who enjoys the company of people and other dogs. However, as is true of all puppies, she is still learning what is and is not appropriate. Although Talon is an absolute love, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy energy which results in endless puppy antics. They will get into things, whine, and will chew on inappropriate items. With time, training, patience, and socialization, Talon will develop into a good canine citizen. Talon is looking for an active forever family. Could that be with you?

Bridget and her buddy, Keagan, were surrendered to a shelter. The family did not provide the shelter with a reason for the surrender. However, once in their care, it became clear to shelter staff that these two dogs had not always been treated kindly. Timid and unsure, both dogs can be fearful with new people and situations. However, given time and support, both Bridget and Keagan have shown that they are sweet dogs. Although shelter staff enjoyed both dogs, they recognized that Bridget and Keagan would have their best chance at finding their forever families if they were placed in a breed specific rescue. We were more than happy to welcome both dogs into the MAGSR family. 

Briget is a lovely girl. However, she is shy and skittish with new people and in new situations. Her forever family will need to keep a close eye on Bridget as she adjusts to her new life and household. Having likely been mistreated in her previous home, Bridget is a little head-shy and will need her new family to be patient and go slow with her. A stable environment with clear routines and structure will go a long way with this girl. She will thrive with structure, leadership, and love. As is true of all dogs, it is critical that Bridget participate in training with her new family. Training will not only help Bridget develop the confidence she needs to become a stable adult, but it will also help her create a strong and healthy bond with her forever family. Bridget is looking for a special family that will commit to her for a lifetime, 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.

If Ralph sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet this boy today. 

Jesirae and her four sisters -  Jesalyn, Jesamine, Jesenya, and Jesibel - were found by a good samaritan on the side of the road. Thinking these babies were likely dumped, this kind person collected them all and brought them to an animal clinic to make sure they were safe and healthy. Once medically cleared the pups were taken to a shelter to wait out their stray hold. Although these girls are playful and interactive, the shelter is no place for babies. When asked if we could help these little ladies move forward, we immediately made arrangements to welcome them into the MAGSR family.

Jesirae is loveable, energetic and curious. Within the safety of the MAGSR family, this little girl is just starting to learn about the joys of good food, a soft bed, and a loving household. Jesirae is ready to move forward with a forever family that will provide her with the love, care, and attention that this little pup so clearly deserves. Although Jesirae is an absolute love bug, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy energy which results in endless puppy antics. They will get into things, whine, and will chew on inappropriate items. With time, training, patience, and socialization, Jesirae will develop into the good canine citizen we know she is destined to become. Jesirae is looking for a forever home that will commit to her for a lifetime. Could that family be you?

Handsome Luca was seen being dumped out of a car a few weeks ago. The good Samaritan that witnessed this act had to make a quick decision - follow the person that dumped Luca or get Luca to safety. Fortunately, Luca's safety was top priority. He was quickly picked-up and brought into the comfort of the good Samaritan's home until animal services could get involved. Once animal services took over, Luca was able to get the care he needed while waiting for a decision about his next placement. Although Luca did well while waiting for his stray hold to end, animal services knew that this big guy would be best placed in a rescue where a GSD savvy home could be found. When asked to welcome Luca into the MAGSR family, we immediately stepped forward. 

Luca means bringer of light. This name is quite fitting for this guy as this big, silly, playful guy keeps you smiling with his antics. Luca is a very large boy with a very large personality. He is looking for an experienced household as he portrays some strong GSD traits. As is true of all young shepherds, Luca will benefit from a household that will provide him with the structure, routine, and leadership that shepherds crave. Food and ball motivated, Luca is more than happy to work for treats and attention. In fact, this boy has already begun to learn a few basic commands. Luca knows sit, paw, and down. He also knows to out the ball when asked. Training is essential as Luca needs to learn to trust that this forever family will commit to him for a lifetime. In addition, training will help Luca develop into a stable and confident good canine citizen. If Luca sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today. 

Lovely Katie Ann was picked up as a stray and sheltered by another rescue while they waited for her stray hold. Unfortunately, no one came forward to claim this lovely girl. Although they enjoyed their time with Katie Ann, the rescue caring for her felt that she would be most likely to find her forever family if she moved into a breed specific rescue. When asked if we could help Katie Ann take the next step toward her forever home, MAGSR immediately stepped forward.

Katie Ann is an affectionate and friendly girl especially with her people. She greatly enjoys the company of the people within her sphere and seems to understand the ins and outs of living with a family. However, as is true with most shepherds, Katie Ann will overbond if given the opportunity. This can cause her to become overprotective of her people, her property, and her home. In order to meet with success, Katie Ann is looking for an experienced household that will work with her to develop a healthy relationship. Boundaries and clear expectations are very helpful to her success. Katie Ann will thrive with routine, leadership, and structure. Training will also go a long way with this lovely girl. Not only will training help Katie Ann bond to her forever family, but it will also help her develop into a good and stable canine citizen. Katie Ann has already begun to learn some basics with our volunteers, but she will flourish with continued training. Although Katie Ann can be walked calmly in areas with other dogs, she is looking for a home where she is the only dog. Best placed with a confident handler, Katie Ann is looking for an active family that will commit to her for a lifetime. If this lovely lady sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today. 

Lokki and his sister, Meka, were confiscated with a large number of dogs. Due to the nature of their seizure, both pups remained with animal control for a few months until they could be released. Although shelter staff worked hard to make sure both dogs had what they needed, they knew that placement through a rescue would be best. When asked if we could bring these two babies into the MAGSR family, we immediately stepped forward. 

Lokki is a curious and intelligent guy. Although he is a survivor, he maintains a friendly personality. With all that Lokki has endured, he has not had the opportunity to work through many of his puppy antics. As a result, this handsome guy is still learning the dos and don'ts of puppyhood. However, with patience and consistency, he is making great strides. As a young pup, Lokki has a lot of energy. He is looking for a family that can exercise both his body and his mind on a daily basis. As Lokki and Meka lacked the opportunity to explore the world as young pups, they both have many puppy-like traits at this time. Both will thrive in households where structure, guidance, and leadership are provided consistently. Training will go a long way with Lokki. Not only will this help her bond to his new family, but it will also help him develop into a stable and confident canine citizen. If this handsome and interactive guy sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today!

Lovely little Mistletoe is looking for a forever home this holiday season. This sweet girl was cherished by her family. However, due to an unexpected set of circumstances, they could no longer provide her with the care that they knew she deserved. As a result, they made the difficult decision to surrender her to MAGSR. We promised Mistletoe's previous family that we would find her a safe and loving forever home. 

Mistletoe is in many ways your typical young shepherd. She is curious, playful, and energetic. A fan of the ball Mistletoe will happily run around with one but is still working on bringing it back. It's just too much fun to give it back. Highly treat motivated, Mistletoe will be a star in training class. In fact, she already knows a couple commands. Training will be critical to Mistletoe's success as it will not only help her bond to her forever family, but it will also help her develop into a good canine citizen.

Cletus is a happy-go-lucky guy. Found wandering around with a four-legged buddy, Cletus was found and brought to safety by the right people. When his buddy found another rescue to take him in, Cletus began looking for a rescue of his own. Fortunately, MAGSR heard about this sweetheart and immediately welcomed him to the family. 

Cletus is a young, sweet, and affectionate guy. With a playful personality and a friendly demeanor, Cletus easily wins over the hearts and minds of everyone around him. As Cletus has not yet had the opportunity to live in a household, he will likely have a lot to learn. However, as a smart and energetic guy, he should be a quick learner.

Training is also necessary as it will help Cletus not only bond to his forever family, but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen.
