Atta
ADOPTED 02/07/2019!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Atta was a stray to the shelter and is now looking for his forever home. He is a strong boy with no leash skills, but with training, guidance and direction he will learn quickly. He is young and full of energy, so be sure you are up to many walks and playtime each day. Yes, he has a lot to learn, but will need his humans help to learn how to be the best he can be.
Updates:He is a sweetheart!! Atta loves every person he meets. Atta hasn't had any accidents in the house and is slightly crate trained / crate comfortable. He would prefer being with his person than in the crate though and may cry a little at first. Once he gets a routine and understands you're coming back he's fine! Atta is a cuddler and a silly boy. He doesn't get into things around the house and is very well behaved. Training will be helpful and he learns very quickly! Sit, stay, come, heel, drop, etc are all about 65%. The dogs we have met, Atta hasn't been psyched about and will growl. Some he is okay with when introduced slowly and properly. He requires medium exercise and is happy to adapt to his owner. With car rides, he does well, gets slightly anxious, and may get car sick on longer trips. Atta may do well in a low-chaos home, maybe with a couple who is home often. He's a very special pup and his future family will be very lucky.
Lexi
ADOPTED 02/03/2019!
Good With Kids: Yes
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Lexi came back to us after 5 years as her adopter had many changes in her life, some of them tragic. Lexi is very much loved and was well cared for, but unfortunately her family was not able to continue to provide her with the best home. She lived with smaller dogs and cats, she also enjoyed frequent visits by the grandchildren. She is overweight, but with a reduced calorie diet she will have her girly figure back in no time. Lexi would love to know the comforts of a home once again and the love and companionship of a family.
Zeus

Good With Kids: Unknown

Sadly Zeus's person was relocated for his job and was not able to find pet friendly housing that he could afford. Zeus and his sister Athena are now in our care, patiently waiting for a new family. They have been well cared for and were very much loved. They get along very well and are very bonded so we are hopeful that a family has room in their hearts and homes to adopt them both.

Fritz
ADOPTED 02/02/2019!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Fritz made his way to us from a shelter where he was a stray, so we have no history for him. Fritz is a lot of dog, he is big and strong, and it is obvious that no one took the time to train him. Training is so very important as it teaches them good behavior, good manners and how to be good members of a family and society. He has been friendly with our volunteers and did well meeting other dogs.
Rex
ADOPTED 01/28/2019!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Rex is one of 22 dogs from the Carolinas that needed help due to Hurricane Florence.
Rex is handsome boy who is looking for someone to bond with. A family that will take him to training, provide structure and guidance. As he is new to us we are still learning more about him, watch for updates.
Updates:Unfortunately, Rex tested heartworm positive when seen by MAGSR's vet. This could have been avoided had he been kept on monthly heartworm preventatives. Rex is in the beginning stages of his heartworm treatment, which of course MAGSR will pay for his entire treatment. Treatment is expensive, but Rex is certainly worth the cost. Donations towards his treatment would be greatly appreciated, this would also help us save other dogs with medical needs. He will have to take it slow for the next few months while he undergoes treatment, so lots of rest will be in order.
Rex is slowly settling in to his foster home. This sweet boy must have had a very hard past because he’s just so confused in a home. He enjoys watching out the window and taking naps with his foster mom. Poor Rex is so scared of the steps and of the kitchen, but his foster mom is working with him to help him gain some confidence with that. Rex does well going into his crate, which is good because he will require crate restriction during his heartworm treatment. Rex is affectionate and enjoys attention from his human – he just wants someone to love him. Rex is a quiet dog and needs a quiet and more calm home life so he can continue to build confidence and learn to trust humans again. If you’re willing to be patient and give Rex a chance, please ask to meet him today.
Hello, my name is Rex! I’m adjusting to my foster home. I’ve been through quite a lot since Hurricane Florence in North Carolina. My foster Mom thinks I’m real handsome and calls me Sir Rex Harrison sometimes. I love the attention I get from my foster parents and the resident dog. I’m relaxing and becoming myself. I was trained not to go into the kitchen and not allowed upstairs. A few times my foster Mom has taken me into the kitchen and upstairs but I’d rather not go there. My foster Mom realizes it’s not so bad. I like to wait at kitchen door and never get underfoot! I don’t get on furniture, no jumping up and I’m happy to retreat to my crate during the day for naps and to sleep at night. I like hanging out, going for walks and enjoy having treats for learning to sit. I was very excited when I first got here and had a problem with submissive peeing. I'm much better now, although due to heartworm treatment I’m on prednizone and really thirsty. My treatment is just starting. Thankfully, MAGSR is good to take care of the heartworm treatment for whomever adopts me. My foster parents are working to build up my confidence. In the meantime, I’m hoping for a forever home with gentle folks who can appreciate my good looks and charm.
Rex is doing great in his foster home. Rex has overcome his shyness and wants to play with the resident dog so badly, but is still on activity restriction until the end of his heartworm treatment so he's not allowed to run & jump yet. Rex walks well on the lead and doesn't pull and sits on command. Rex does well in the crate and is housebroken. He likes his neighbors and all of the dogs in the neighborhood. Rex is doing great but is still waiting for his fur-ever home - could that home be yours?
Juno
ADOPTED 01/28/2019!
Good With Kids: Unknown

Juno's former family moved away and left her behind all on her own. A sweet, playful 8 month puppy left to fend for herself. Thankfully a neighbor noticed, took her in until he could find her a rescue. She enjoyed playing with the neighbors dogs while she waited to make her way to us. She is such a sweet, loving girl that would be a great addition to an active family. Of course training is required and needed, this will help her adjust to her new family and life.
Estee
ADOPTED 01/27/2019!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Estee found herself in a shelter, so we have no history on her. She is now in our care looking for her forever family. She is such a sweet girl and enjoys the company of other dogs. Training will help Estee settle in with her new family and way of life.
Mira
ADOPTED 01/26/2019!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Mira came to us from a not so good situation. She was part of a breeding facility, she was not provided with proper care or adequate living conditions. Thankfully after complaints and an investigation she, along with other dogs were confiscated. Mira is now in our care where she is looking for a family that will provide her with a loving and warm home, where she means more to her family than just a puppy making machine. Mira is very outgoing and extremely smart. She can open latches and will jump most any fence, she just loves to be with the other dogs and will stop at nothing to get to them. Right now she is being treated a flight risk as we just don't know what she is capable of. Training will go along way for Mira, it will not only teach her good manners, but training helps with mental stimulation which in turn burns off energy. She is young, has a lot to learn, needs structure in a home and family can meet her needs. Ask to meet this beauty.
Bella
ADOPTED 01/26/2019!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Beautiful Bella found herself at a shelter, she is now with us looking for a cat free home. Bella enjoys chasing and pawing at cats so she will not be suited for a home with cats. She did well with dogs she was introduced to for dog on dog evaluation. Of course, one of the most important things any dog requires is training and Bella is no exception. With her smarts and eagerness to learn she should be the star of the class.
