Jagger
ADOPTED 05/24/2018!
, 
Good With Kids: Older kids, over 10
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Jagger was not well cared for in his previous home, he also was not well socialized or provided with any training. Jagger will need a adopter that has experience with the breed and has the time and energy to devote to his training. He takes sometime to warm up to new people, so a slow approach is best with this big boy. High value treats are a great way to his heart. Guidance from his new family, ongoing socialization and a good training program will help young Jagger become a well rounded boy.
Updates:Now that Jagger is in a foster home, his true personality is shinning through. Jagger is a very affectionate boy and will shower his human with doggies kisses every opportunity he gets. He frequently underestimates his size and will try and climb into your lap to be pet. Jagger is a big boy and will jump on you/ into you and can be mouthy when excited, which he is working on with his foster mom so best to go to a home without small children. His leash manners have improved in a short time and he heels nicely next to his handler with pinch/prong collar on and he is starting to learn some basic obedience. Jagger rides beautifully in the car, taking in all the sights and sounds. He is not as scared of new people now that he is away from the stress of the kennel environment, but he can still sometimes be weary of strangers and will bark at them. He is a very picky eater and so far have discovered a handful of treats/food he will eat, one of them being canadian bacon. He knows how to play fetch as you can see in his video on his profile and enjoys playing with toys. He has also conquered his fear of the vacuum and instead will focus on playing with his toy while it is on. When Jagger gets too hot, he will remove the top layer of gravel at the dog park and lay beneath a picnic bench. Jagger wants nothing more then to be with his people and will not leave their side. Jagger is the epitome of a GSD; smart, strong, loyal and as such will need someone with GSD experience who will lead him and teach him. If Jagger sounds like the dog for you please ask to meet him, he's waiting for you.
Lolly
ADOPTED 05/19/2018!
, 
Good With Kids: Yes, older kids
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Lolly was dumped at a shelter extremely emaciated. Doing some research her original owner was found. Lolly was given away in Dec and ended up in a shelter in March. She has gained some weight but still needs more. She is such a sweet and loving girl. Lolly has EPI, Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency. This is caused when the pancreas does not produce enough enzymes to properly digest food. This is very easily treated by adding enzymes to each meal which helps the body digest food. More information can be found at epi4dogs.com along with before and after pictures of dogs that have EPI.
Lolly is now receiving the enzymes she needs and is gaining weight. Please do not let EPI deter you from considering Lolly, she deserves a family to love and care for her and in return she will give you her devotion.
Updates:Lolly is quickly adapting to life in her foster home. She crates nicely and is only noisy when she needs to go out to do her business and has proven to be housebroken so far. She likes to play fetch, has good ball drive, and tug - she's learning the "out or drop it" command so it’s best to have two balls. Lolly gets along well with the resident large dog. She gets very aroused when she knows her food is being prepared with the enzymes and she does better separated from any other dogs during feeding time. Lolly has been friendly to all humans she has met and enjoys affection - especially the butt rub. She seemed appreciative of the bathing process especially all the massaging and rubbing. Lolly knows some basic commands and doesn’t pull to much on the leash. Lolly is very smart and she will take advantage of her human without consistency, so she’ll need someone who can teach her the rules. If you’re looking for a young dog with medium energy - ask to see beautiful Lolly!
More about the lovely Lolly - she loves water and will get the zoomies after swimming; she loves to play fetch and doesn’t want to stop; she knows sit, down, heel, kennel up and is learning place. Lolly doesn't reacted to other dogs, even reactive ones. Lolly whines when she needs to go out, is excited or wants attention. She likes to be with people and she enjoys being brushed. Lolly rides quietly in the car, crated or not crated. Lolly barks to alert only with good reason. Lolly loves to chew nylabones; was very good at the vets; and is overall a well mannered, balanced dog. Lolly has so much to give - ask to see her today!
Dietra
ADOPTED 05/18/2018!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Dietra came to us as an owner surrender. She was much loved by her previous family which included young children and a male GSD. Dietra is a very sweet girl who is in need of a family of very own. Dietra did arrive in our care not putting weight on her rear leg, we had her seen by our vet who recommended she be seen by a orthopedic specialist. Dietra has an appointment scheduled for this coming week to see the specialist in order to find out, if anything, is wrong with her leg. Once we know we will post an update.
Updates:Dietra has been seen by an Orthopedic Specialist. Dietra has a bone infection which is being treated. It was also discovered that Dietra has a torn ACL, once the infection has cleared up she will have TPLO surgery to repair the tear.
MAGSR is committed to Dietra's treatment and surgery. This is a costly endeavor, but Dietra is so worth it. Donations towards her surgery are greatly needed and very much appreciated, no amount is too small. Please help us help Dietra and the many other dogs that rely on us to keep them healthy and safe.
King
ADOPTED 05/15/2018!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
King made his way to us after he was confiscated by Animal Control for running at large and lack of proper care. He is approximately 4 years old. He is a little shy upon first meeting new people, but he quickly warms up and leans in to be petted. He seems to be a very nice boy that just needs stability, love and care.
Updates:Once in our care, our volunteers noticed King may have some difficulty seeing everything that is happening around him, so MAGSR had King seen by an eye specialist who diagnosed King with Progressive Retinal Atrophy in both eyes. The doctor feels it could be congenital or event related onset. King is totally blind in his right eye and has partial sight in his left eye. At the vet's recommendation, MAGSR is starting King on a dietary supplement, Ocuvite, which is inexpensive and can be purchased online easily. Going forward, King will need to be seen once a year by an eye specialist. King's foster mom reports he was an amazing patient and through all the tests, he was gentle and cooperative - he even gave the vet a kiss when they were done. King's personality outshines everything else. King is wonderful in the home and quickly gets out of the resident cat's way. On his walks, King is friendly to everyone he meets - adults, kids and other dogs. He rides well in the car, is housebroken, and does well on a leash. He's not fond of the crate, but he does wonderful when free in the house. King can get easily spooked but that may have to do with his limited sight - when he gets scared, he just backups and doesn't bark or growl. He is learning about the steps and that they aren't a bad thing. King loves his food and treats and will sit nicely for them. King is a wonderful guy and anyone who meets him won't focus on his limited sight, but rather what a great dog and companion he is.
Bo
ADOPTED 05/13/2018!
Good With Kids: Older kids, over 12
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Bo came to us from a shelter, so we have no history on him. He can be picky about his dog friends and may do best as an only dog or with female dogs. Training of course will go a long way helping Bo settle in, learn some manners and how to properly interact with other dogs. With people he is very friendly, although we do not know how he is with children at this time.
Updates:Bo is great dog, and he's doing nicely in foster. His weight is up to 84lbs from 69lbs a month ago, and he loves to run and is building muscle - he is really looking good. He has been going to training for a few weeks and is doing very well the class, both with his basic commands and in terms of his confidence and socialization. He does fine in his crate (although he will start to make a racket sometimes if he feels he's missing out on something!), is house broken, and has acclimated well, and is happy and comfortable with his two older GSD foster siblings. Bo still has a lot to learn, but overall he's a very sweet and responsive dog, that is progressing well and will make a great addition to the right lucky home, that is ready to provide the care and love that Bo so richly deserves.
Handsome a sweet Bo was returned to MAGSR thru no fault of his own after his family decided they no longer wanted him. Bo’s prior family never truly committed to him and he spent most of his time in a crate. Bo is an active and friendly boy who needs exercise and continued training, as do most German Shepherds. Bo is ready for a forever family who will truly commit to him, spend time with him and not lock him in a crate and not give him up when he becomes an inconvenience. If interested in meeting this handsome boy, ask to meet Bo today!
Oliver
ADOPTED 05/12/2018!
Good With Kids: Unknown
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Oliver was surrendered as he was not good with the resident cats. He was originally adopted from a shelter in Niagara Falls, Canada. His adopters moved and could not take him so they left him with their parents in TN who had cats. So as you can see he is well travelled on the East Coast. He is a friendly boy who would just like to settle his paws in a forever home, one without cats of course.
Windsor
ADOPTED 05/07/2018!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Windsor came to us from shelter where ended up as a stray. He is now in our care, looking for a better life and family who will care for him for his lifetime. We do not have any history for him, we are getting to know him. He has been friendly with those he has met and evaluated well with other dogs. Windsor is ready to put his past behind him and looks forward to a fresh start in a new home.
Updates:Windsor is a good foster pup. He gets along well with everyone, four-legged (dogs only so far) and otherwise. Windsor is working on his doorway manners and he's learning sit/stay in his foster home. Windsor is a pacer out in the yard and has some energy to burn. Windsor is slowly learning to play, when he wants to. Windsor accepts the crate, although he's not always happy about going into it, but he's quiet and relaxed when in there. Windsor is great interacting with kids. If Windsor sounds like a good fit for you, please ask to meet him.
Samson
ADOPTED 05/06/2018!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Samson came to us as an owner surrender. Unfortunately his former family have their hands very full with medical needs, this left Samson home alone for too long. He was very much loved and well cared for. He is now looking for a new family, one that will love and care for him as much as his last family has. Samson is a stunning, all white male GSD. In his previous home he lived with young children and another male GSD. Samson is a very smart boy, he can open doors using his mouth to turn the knobs, he can open a gate latch and knows how to get out of a wire crate. He does need some basic obedience training, not only will this help him learn good manners, but it will also help to create a bond with his new family. He enjoys spending as much as time as possible with his family.
Daina
ADOPTED 05/06/2018!
, 
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Sadly Daina's family turned her into a shelter as she was experiencing digestive issues and weight loss. Such a friendly, loving and sweet girl, she did not deserve to be abandoned especially in her time of need. Now that Daina is with us she is receiving the care she needs and deserves. She has been seen by our vet and is undergoing testing to determine why she is so emaciated. She is receiving high quality nutrition and supplements and extra meals. Daina deserves to know the love of a real family, one that will care for her no matter what. Please consider Daina when looking for your next BFF.
Updates:Daina's test results revealed that she has EPI, Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency. This is caused when the pancreas does not produce enough enzymes to properly digest food. This is very easily treated by adding enzymes to each meal which helps the body digest food. More information can be found at epi4dogs.com along with before and after pictures of dogs that have EPI.
Daina is now receiving the enzymes she needs and will begin to gain weight. Please do not let EPI deter you from considering Daina, she deserves a family to love and care for her and in return she will give you her devotion.
Daina is doing so very well in her foster home and is definitely stronger and putting on weight now that she has the enzymes she needs for her food. Daina is a smart, playful, active, curious and fun girl. Her playful personality is really emerging now that she feels better. Daina loves to play tug and will also retrieve a ball thrown for her and will sit immediately when waiting for it to be thrown again. She is friendly but alert and will alert her foster mom when she hears unexpected noises, but Daina is a pretty quiet dog in general. Daina is very well behaved and housebroken. She is learning obedience commands and leash manners and takes easy corrections well - some training will help quickly teach her the skills she needs to be a good canine citizen. Daina is just a wonderful, sweet, playful young girl waiting to make some family very happy!
Hi - I’m Daina! I’m a little over 1 year old, past the puppy days but so full of fun! I sit, walk well on a leash, play with other dogs and kids very nicely, love my crate, and am a really happy dog. I do have one easily managed issue: I need to have enzymes sprinkled on all my food 20 minutes before I eat, to help me digest it and stay healthy. It’s called EPI, or exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, (which you can look up online very easily), but other than that, I’m a normal, happy, fun young girl looking for my forever home. I’ve met other dogs, horses, and kids here on my foster’s farm, and I’m friendly but alert. I don’t bark much at all, unless I hear something that just doesn’t sound right - then I’ll let you know. I like to play ball and tug, and go for walks anywhere you want to take me! Please consider me when you are looking for a dog you can love forever - I’m kind of a sweetheart!
Aria
ADOPTED 05/06/2018!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Aria and her sister Allie came to us from a shelter where they had been surrendered. We are told that mom is a purebred GSD and dad is purebred Lab. At 16 weeks old both girls have a whole lot to learn. It is never too soon to start basic obedience training, as socialization with other dogs and people is very important, along with learning good puppy manners. Puppies will chew things, have accidents, get into things and have lots of energy, so please be sure you have the time and patience it takes to raise a puppy.
Updates:Aria is settling well in her foster home. She is very affectionate, sweet, and playful. Aria will easily crawl up into your lap and cuddle next to you. Belly rubs are the best. She is responding well to housebreaking and enjoys hanging out with her family, including the resident cats. She is very friendly and her foster mom is working on her manners when she gets excited meeting new people. Aria is a gem, so don't miss out on meeting her.
