Giovanni
ADOPTED 10/27/2023!
Good With Kids: Likely
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Goofy Giovanni and his sister were picked up as strays in the south. Like so many other dogs they were brought to a shelter that is overcrowded. Although both dogs waited out their stray hold hoping their family would come and claim them, no one stepped forward. Unfortunately, unclaimed dogs are quickly added to the euthanasia list as there are not enough spaces for the number of dogs in shelters. Both Giovanni and his sister, although babies, were placed on this list. Fortunately, another rescue pulled them mere hours before they were euthanized and placed them in a foster home. Giovanni's sister was adopted by the foster family. Although they loved Giovanni as well, they knew that he would be happiest in another home. Recognizing that he may meet with better success in a breed specific rescue, he was transferred to MAGSR. We promised we would find this handsome guy a loving family that would cherish him for a lifetime.
Giovanni is in many ways your typical puppy. He is playful, adventurous, and enthusiastic about life. Having been well socialized around other dogs, Giovanni takes cues from other dogs very well and greatly enjoys his canine companions. Clearly socialized with people, Giovanni enjoys interacting. He is both playful and affectionate. A toy guy, Giovanni is hoping that his forever family has plenty of toys that roll and squeak. Still learning the ins and outs of living in a household, Giovanni is picking up expectations, but he will need continued support and patience as he adjusts to his forever home. Although Giovanni is one handsome guy, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. Puppies will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your home with endless puppy antics. With time, training, patience, and socialization, we know Giovanni will grow up to become a stable and confident canine citizen. If this sweet guy sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet him today!
Chaka
ADOPTED 10/20/2023!
Good With Kids: Likely
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Lovely little Chaka was picked up as a stray in the south and brought to animal control. Living in an overcrowded shelter that was significantly over capacity, Chaka was quickly added to the list for euthanasia. Fortunately, one of our rescue partners saw Chaka at the shelter and knew this little girl would be an incredible addition to a family. So, they pulled her just before her time was up and asked MAGSR if we could help Chaka continue to move forward. We knew this girl was special and welcomed her to the family.
Chaka is an absolute love. She is friendly, affectionate, and intelligent. We are so grateful this little lady made it out of the shelter alive. Having lived in a foster home for over a month, Chaka has been impressing her foster family with her social and happy personality. Chaka has done very well with other dogs and loves to play. She is hoping her forever family loves toys as much as she does. Clearly well socialized with people as well, Chaka is always ready for some snuggles and a good belly rub. She is simply a wonderful mix of play and love. Chaka does understand many of the rules and routines of a household; however, as is true of all new does, she will need time to adjust to her forever family. With time, patience, structure, and leadership, Chaka will thrive. Although Chaka is already an impressive girl, as she moves forward training will be critical to her success. Not only will training help Chaka develop into a good canine citizen, but it will also help her create a strong and healthy bond with her family. If this lovely little lady sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet Chaka today!
Saint
ADOPTED 10/15/2023!
Good With Kids: Likely
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Mama Maxie was surrendered to a local shelter. Shortly after her arrival, she decided to unveil a not so little secret and gave birth to five adorable babies - Colt, Falcon, Bronco, Saint, and Panther. We are lovingly calling them the football puppies. Recognizing that raising puppies in a shelter can be very dangerous for the entire family, staff members began reaching out to rescues for help. When we heard about Mama Maxie and her football puppies, our team immediately began putting plans in place to welcome the entire family to MAGSR.
Over the last several weeks, MAGSR has been fortunate to have a groomer, mobile vet, volunteers, and an amazing foster family working together to ensure that Mama Maxie and her family have everything they need. This has helped them thrive. Now that the babies and Mama Maxie are just about ready to find their forever homes, it is time to share them with the world. Saint is the spitting image of her lovely Mama. She is intelligent, energetic, and full of spirit. She is looking for a forever family that will keep her well socialized with people and dogs. All members of the family will be ready for adoption on 10/14/23.
Although Saint is an absolute doll, 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, patience, training, and leadership, the football puppies will grow into the stable and confident adults we know they are destined to become. If lovely little Saint sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today.
Howie
ADOPTED 10/15/2023!
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?
Sweet Howie was picked up as a stray and brought to a local shelter. Cute as pie this little guy was lucky to have been found by the right people. Upon arrival at the shelter, staff members knew something was not right with Howie. They immediately began pooling resources to determine how they could help. Tests were administered and it was determined that Howie is positive for parvo. Although they knew Howie deserved every chance to survive, the shelter could not provide the 24 hour care needed to help Howie move forward. So, an emergency plea went out. When we learned that Howie needed immediate support, we began working with our team to help him move forward.
Howie is still so very young. In order to survive, he will need to fight and fight hard. He does not yet know it, but MAGSR will fight right alongside him.
Parvo is a highly contagious virus; it is particularly challenging for puppies to survive. Although there is no cure, with 24/7 monitoring and supportive care, he has a chance at survival. As we move Howie forward, our vetting partners will be working with Howie to keep him hydrated, control his GI upset, and prevent secondary infections, while also keeping him monitored and warm. Parvo care is very expensive. We need the GSD community's help in order to provide Howie with every chance at survival. Please consider donating to Howie's care now so that this special boy has every opportunity to fight. Howie is in the fight for his life. Will you help him by being his hero?
Lili
ADOPTED 10/13/2023!
Good With Kids: Older kids, over 16
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Lovely Lili lived in a household with dogs of various ages and sizes. Although she did well overall, like many GSDs when structure wasn't an option, Lili would provide that structure which got her into a few scuffles with her furry siblings. Recognizing that Lili would be most successful if rehomed, her family made the difficult decision to surrender her to MAGSR. We promised we would find Lili the perfect family that would love her for a lifetime.
Lili is an active, intelligent, and friendly girl. It is clear that she was well socialized with people. Having been placed with a foster family that is providing her with daily exercise and training, Lili is excelling. She picks up new commands quickly and does a nice job taking her cues from her handler. Not only is Lili learning expectations, but she is also gaining endless opportunities to socialize with other animals in varied environments. This is helping her develop into a stable and confident dog. Having lived in a household, Lili understands many of the rules and expectations of a home. House broken and crate trained, Lili has a great start. However, as is true for all new dogs, she will need time to adjust to her forever home. An active girl, Lili is hoping her new family enjoys long walks, adventures, and plenty of play time. Although Lili has already begun training, it is critical that her new family continue this process. Not only will training help Lili develop into a good citizen, but it will also help her develop a strong and healthy bond with her forever family. If this stunning girl sounds like a good match for your household, ask to meet Lili today!

This active boy is hoping his forever family has plenty of toys to share. All members of the family will be ready for adoption on 10/14/23.

Clarice
ADOPTED 10/06/2023!
Good With Kids: Likely
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Sweet Clarice was found hungry, hurt, and alone in a busy metropolitan area. Recognizing that she needed help and fast, her finder contacted the local shelter and had her moved inside. Shelter staff immediately fell in love with this girl. She was friendly and affectionate even though she was clearly in pain. While she waited for a family to come and claim her, medical support began in order to help Clarice move forward. Unfortunately, when no one came, Clarice found herself on the euthanasia list. Shelters everywhere are experiencing overwhelming numbers which has increased euthanasia rates across the country. Knowing that Clarice deserved a loving family that would treasure her for a lifetime, shelter staff put out a plea for help. MAGSR heard that Clarice was out of options and stepped forward to help this special girl.
Clarice is beautiful, playful, and affectionate. Having clearly been well socialized with people of all ages as well as other dogs, it is obvious that someone along her journey provided her with opportunities to develop into a stable adult dog. Although we do not know much about her past life, we do know that Clarice does understand some of the ins and outs of living in a household. However, as is true of any new dog, Clarice will benefit from structure, routine, and leadership. This will help her adjust to the rules and routines of the household. Clarice has already begun to learn some commands with her foster family. She is clearly intelligent. As Clarice continues to move forward, it is imperative that her forever family continue with training. Training will not only help Clarice develop a strong bond with her family, but it will also help her develop into a good canine citizen. Clarice is looking for an amazing family who will love her for a lifetime. If she sounds like the right match for you, ask to meet Clarice today!
