Maya
ADOPTED 06/18/2017!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Maya found herself at a shelter for reasons unknown. She now has another chance at a better life. She is very sweet and laid back. She has good manners and walks nicely on a leash.
Updates:Prior to coming to MAGSR, Maya endured a trama to her back left leg which resulted in a torn ACL. As a result, Maya underwent a TPLO, or tibial-plateau-leveling osteotomy, in early July. Maya came through the surgery well and has been an amazing patient throughout the recovery process. At this time, Maya is participating in weekly physical therapy appointments where she regularly draws a crowd due to her fun-loving personality and beautiful face. Although Maya is not yet ready to be running around chasing a ball or playing with her foster siblings, she is looking for a forever home. As a young, energetic girl, Maya is looking for a family that will help her finish up her recovery, as well as, provide her with a the love, exercise, and training that all dogs need to become good canine citizens. If Maya sounds like a good match for you family, please ask to meet her today.
As Maya's care has been both important and expensive, donations towards her treatment would be greatly appreciated. These donations help us offset costs so that we can save other dogs with medical needs.

Cash was surrendered to a shelter as the child in the home was highly allergic to him. He is such a wonderful boy, easy to handle and has leash manners. He would love to be in a home with a loving family.
Desiree
ADOPTED 06/18/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Desiree made her way to us from a shelter so we have no history on her. She is a gorgeous black long hair GSD.
While in our care she has met children, covering them in kisses.
She does have energy and can be jumpy but settles down nicely.
Khloe
ADOPTED 06/13/2017!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Khloe was in a shelter hoping someone would give her a second chance at life. That we did, but we are only the first step on her journey, a new family will complete that journey. She is emaciated, but has been putting on weight with the help of good nutrition and regular meals. She is a nice girl who just needs someone that will care for and love her. Could that be you?
Updates:Khloe has been in her foster home for a week now and is settling in nicely and starting to build up her confidence. Khloe is very smart and she's picking up obedience commands quickly, but she's still working on her focus because she can be easily distracted by her surroundings. If Khloe sounds like a dog that may work well in your family, please ask to meet her.
April
ADOPTED 06/11/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
April's life is forever changed, thanks to those who saved her from horrid and unsafe living conditions. It is amazing that with all that April has endured she is so incredibly sweet and wants to be loved and properly cared for. April deserves a family who will provide a wonderful life for her, one full of love and a commitment for her lifetime.
Updates:Lovely April is a remarkable girl. Like many pups before her, April seems to know she has been rescued and will never be subjected to the horrible conditions from which she survived. She enjoys the company of everyone she meets and seems grateful to anyone who notices her. April tends to take most things in stride. Having to learn the ins and outs of a new home can be unnerving; however, April seems excited to have the opportunity to enjoy the good life. She has discovered the joy of a good bone, soft bed, and plenty of toys. Living with other dogs, April is slowly learning the ins and outs of pack life. We are very impressed with her playful nature. April is goofy yet affectionate. She will happily sit for as long as you'll allow while you rub her beautiful ears. If this amazingly girl sounds like a match for your family, please inquire about her today.
I have spent some time with April the last two Saturdays. Her behavior has been great both days. Yesterday she patiently sat in her "run" while I leashed her up, even though another dog had been brought into the kennel area and they were all barking about it. She is eager to please and knows quite a few commands, sit, down, an elementary stay, and come. It has been easy to get her attention. She takes treats gently, loves to have her ears rubbed and can be a leaner. She has also been fine about other dogs being in her general area while we are out and about in the field. We are working on leash walking, she wants to pull ahead a bit, but no lunging. She is content to walk, work on commands, be brushed or just chill out by the picnic table.
Sugar
ADOPTED 06/10/2017!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Sugar is a gorgeous young white female Shepherd. It is obvious that no one took the time to teach her anything or ever walked her on leash. Our volunteers are working with her on leash manners. She is a high energy girl who will need an active family. Training will go along way in teaching acceptable behavior and manners.
Zoe
ADOPTED 06/10/2017!
Good With Kids: Unknown
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Zoe was surrendered to a shelter by her family as she was chasing he goats and chickens. Farm life is not for this girl. She walks nicely on a leash and seems to have had some training as she is well mannered. She enjoyed just hanging out with our volunteers.
Sebastian
ADOPTED 06/04/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Sebastian found himself in a shelter hoping someone would give him the chance at a second life. He was heartworm positive but has undergone treatment. He is somewhat unsettled with all of the changes in his life, but with time he will settle in.
Updates:Sebastian warms up to people quickly, he follows you wherever you go, and lays down near you, and craves attention all the time. He does have separation issues, needs a secure crate until he gets over his separation issues. He is housebroken, does know basic commands but needs more training. He seems good around kids. He does interact well with other dogs. At night time, if you're around, he does go into his crate and stays there all night with no issues.
Sebastian has settled in nicely to the household routine. He is a sweet, easy-going, well-behaved dog. He enjoys a game of fetch as well as just chilling out close to his favorite human. He welcomes attention and cuddles, and does not like getting left behind. He knows basic commands but could use some reinforcement. He walks well on a leash, will pull when excited but correct easily. He is anxious to make friends with every dog and human he meets. He will make a great companion for someone who has the time to give him.
Magic
ADOPTED 06/04/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Magic was surrendered by his family as they were moving into an apartment where Shepherds were not allowed.
He lived with children, cats and other dogs in his previous home. He does like to chase the cats, but we are told he only wants to play.
Magic, of course will require training and guidance from his family so that he can learn good manners.
Karma
ADOPTED 05/29/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Sweet Karma came to MAGSR underweight and from a very sad situation. Karma previously lived in a hoarding situation with 14 other dogs. Karma was underfed and used for breeding. Because of all that Karma has endured, she is confused and just needs to learn to trust and know she'll be well taken care of. Now that MAGSR has Karma, we hope she will quickly adjust and learn that she will receive regular meals, attention, and proper socialization. If Karma sounds like the right dog for your household, please ask about her today.
Care for these hoarding rescues is putting a severe strain on MAGSR's resources. Donations towards their treatment would be greatly appreciated, this would also help us save other dogs with medical needs.
Updates:Sadly, sweet Karma tested heartworm positive when seen by a MAGSR vet, she obviously was not kept on monthly Heartworm Preventatives which would have protected her. She is currently undergoing heartworm treatment to rid her body of Heartworms so that she may enjoy many more years of life. Treatment is expensive but Karma is certainly worth the cost.
Donations towards her treatment would be greatly appreciated, this would also help us save other dogs with medical needs
Karma has settled in nicely to her foster home and is enjoying her new life while she awaits her forever home. She enjoys hanging out with her foster brothers and sisters, getting out for her short walks, and giving lots of kisses and tail wags to whomever she can reach. Karma has a sweet and playful personality that gets along with kids and other dogs.
Also, Karma’s heartworm treatment is going well. Treatment is relatively easy to do, it just takes a few months. It requires an oral antibiotic with her meals for the first month, and three injections over the course of last two months. After receiving the injections, she is put on crate restriction to limit activity and help her recovery. This crate restriction is actually a great time to adopt the dog, as it allows the dog to get used to their new home in a calm environment and to slowly introduce freedom in the house. Karma is available for adoption while she’s receiving treatment, so if you’re interested in meeting this sweet girl, contact your adoption coordinator today!
Sweet Karma was returned to MAGSR through no fault of her own - her family was not able to keep her. Karma is finishing up her heartworm treatment and she has been wonderful through it during her crate restriction. Karma is very anxious to be adopted by a family who will commit to her for her life and to start her life heartworm free. If snuggles and kisses sound like something you're looking for, then Karma may be a good fit for your family, so please ask to meet her now.
