Adopted MAGSR Dogs

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.  

Booker came to us from a shelter.  He is underweight at only 55 lbs, now that he eating regular nutritious meals he will start to put on weight.  He has missing fur from a severe Flea infestation.  He has been treated for the fleas and is now on medication to help heal his skin.  His beautiful black coat will be looking great in no time.  Booker needs a family who can see past his current rough condition knowing that with proper care his exterior will shine the same  as his personality and heart does.  Please show Booker that their are humans in this world that are kind and loving, ask to meet him. 

Rainee made her way to us after finding herself in a shelter, we have no idea why this beautiful girl ended up there.  She just arrived in our care so we still are getting to know her.  She has been friendly with the people she has met and seems to want to please.  Of course she will need to go to training with her new family so that she can be a well behaved family member.

Guinness had a rough start in life.  He lived with 7 Children that were allowed to torment, tease and hit him.  The adults punished him with a shock collar at full strength, hit him in the face, sprayed water at him, put him in a crate that was much too small for him or chained outside. Guinness is with a caring foster who is working with him as he learns to trust humans, especially when it comes to his food and toys.  He is loving and friendly but does require positive training and interaction.  He enjoys playing and going for walks which of course helps burn off some of that puppy energy.

Beautiful Gypsy has arrived and is looking for a family who will properly care for her.  She was picked up as a stray and taken to the shelter, her family was notified but when they found out she was heartworm positive they no longer wanted her.  We will be sure that she receives treatment for heartworm.  Had she been kept on monthly heartworm prevention this would have been avoided.  Gypsy seems to be a well mannered girl with a nice energy level.  This beautiful girl is looking for a family who will properly care for and provide for her the rest of her life. 

Tesla came to us from a shelter so we have no history on him.  He is a young 1 1/2 year old handsome boy who is looking for his forever family and home.  He needs some work on his manners and obedience training, but he's a smart boy so he should pick things up quickly.  Structure and guidance from his new family, along with lots of exercise will of course be required.

Sommer we believe is a Shusky (German Shepherd Husky mix) with beautiful blue eyes.  She found herself in a shelter along with her mom Adele and sister Faye.  She is somewhat shy but her foster is working with her on building her confidence.  Training with her new family will help a lot with this, along with socialization.  She is looking for her forever home with a family who show her love.  Please remember that she is a puppy and will require patience and commitment from her family.

Logan was purchased off of Craigslist, when the purchaser met him she was appalled by his condition. She immediately reached out to rescue to get Logan the help he needed.

At only 4 months old it was obvious he had been living in a filthy outdoor pen. His smell was very foul, fur was filthy, he had a very round belly and carpal subluxation of all 4 limbs.

He was immediately seen by a vet, his fecal came back with severe hookworms and treatment was started. Sadly 2 days later Logan became quite ill, he was rushed back to the vet where he was diagnosed with parvovirus.

This sweet pup is now fighting for his life in the ICU at the vet hospital. Please keep Logan in your thoughts and prayers.

Comanche's family was moving and couldn't take him with them luckily.  He was not well cared for, he lived in a muddy outdoor pen and had not been to a vet.  Comanche is your typical young pup that needs training and guidance.  He needs to learn that jumping up to greet people is not acceptable and he also needs to learn leash manners.  This of course will come along with consistency and training.  Comanche has lots of puppy energy that will need to be properly directed.  This handsome boy is looking for a family who will commit to his training, provide a lifetime of care and of course lots of walks and playtime.

We have no idea why Ellie found herself in a shelter other than her former family dumped her there, but we do know she was very scared.  She is in a loving foster home now living the good life.  Once comfortable in her new surroundings she comes out of her shell and enjoys running around playing.  Ellie needs to gain some weight.  Please consider Ellie as your next furry family member, she really needs the security of a forever home.

Harmony was found as a stray and ended up in a shelter.  She is missing a rear paw which appears to be from an old injury.  This does not slow her down, she can run and play as well as any 4 pawed dog.  She is friendly and very much enjoys a good belly rub.  Harmony will need training to help her overcome her dislike of vacuums, hairdryers, etc.  This can be easily dealt with by putting her away when these items are in use and of course ongoing training.  Harmony will make a loving companion for a very lucky family.

Sean and his brother Shane are as cute as can be.  We know mom is a GSD but we have no idea what breed dad was.  These cute little bundles of joy have so much too learn and will require a patient family who can handle all that comes with puppy love.  They will have accidents, they will chew and get into things they shouldn't, they will keep you up at night and require ongoing socialization with other dogs and people.  Puppy training is a great start to a well behaved pup.  Please be sure you able to make a commitment to him for his lifetime.

Update: Sean is  a smart boy who loves attention and giving lots of kisses.  We have been working on housebreaking and he is doing great.  He loves playing with toys, getting treats and of course meal times.

Faye found herself in a shelter along with her sister Sommer and mother Adele.  The condition they were in made it obvious that they were not well cared for.  All were covered in fleas and underweight.  Faye is now in a foster home receiving proper care, nutrition and love.  She will benefit from guidance, consistency and training.  This will help build her confidence, teach her good manners and bond with her family.

Shane and his brother Sean are as cute as can be.  We know mom is a GSD but we have no idea what breed dad was.  These cute little bundles of joy have so much too learn and will require a patient family who can handle all that comes with puppy love.  They will have accidents, they will chew and get into things they shouldn't, they will keep you up at night and require ongoing socialization with other dogs and people.  Puppy training is a great start to a well behaved pup.  Please be sure you able to make a commitment to him for his lifetime.  

Bear found himself in a shelter and we cannot imagine why.  He is such a nice boy, very laid back and nothing seems to phase him.  He is good with other dogs that he has met and enjoys time with people.  Ask to meet this big handsome fella, he could be your new bff.

Jake came to us as an owner surrender as his family could not find anywhere to live that would allow Jake.  His family was heartbroken.  Jake was their 1 1/2 year old child's best friend, he had been with him since the baby was born.  He is a friendly, loving boy who enjoys other dogs and spending time with his people.  He loves the outdoors, going for walks and playtime.  One of his favorite games is playing keep away when you run after him.  Although he is enjoying the comforts of a foster home, he would love to have a forever family.

This handsome boy made his way to us as his family is moving and not able to take him with them.  He was much loved and well cared for.  In his previous home he lived with 2 young children.  Titan enjoys the company of other dogs.  He rides well in the car, is housebroken and crate trained.  He does need work on his leash manners but does correct easily when pulling.  Titan would be a good fit for almost any family.

Kit Kat is doing great with adapting to her foster home, with her cohabitant female lab and a bunny.  She doesn’t seem to have a prey drive, as she shows no interest in the bunny.  She is very sweet and is quick to warm up to new people.  I’m amazed at how fast she picks up basic commands and learns the routines of a new environment.  She came into rescue with Parasites and a respiratory infection although she is improving every day and has great appetite, which should help with her being a bit underweight.  She seems new to being on a leash, so I’m working on her leash manners, although she is picking up the routine and processes quickly.  She has no food aggression issues, and does well in a crate.  She is housebroken, and will kindly let you know when she needs to go.  She loves being by your side, and will follow you around, seeking attention and waiting for direction.  If you’re looking for snuggle buddy, that will provide unconditional love, give Kit Kat a chance.

Bella made her way to us from us a shelter.

She was surrendered to the shelter due to ongoing allergies/skin issues. She is now under the care of our vets who are treating her, she has also been switched to a grain free diet.

She has made great improvements medically, but still has a way to go. We are hopeful with the care that she is receiving we will get this under control.

Bella is so sweet and loving, in her previous home she lived with 6 children and other dogs.

Julie was adopted from a shelter when she was just a puppy, sadly she somehow ended up back at the shelter 3 years later.  Julie is an energetic girl, it is obvious her former family did not spend time training with her.  Training is so very important as it provides a well balanced dog who knows what is expected of them and teaches them good manners.  It is never too late for training and Julie is eager to learn.  

Sweet Lucy, how such a friendly and loving dog ended up at a shelter is unknown.  Lucy loves everyone she meets, she greets them with tail wags and tries solicit belly rubs.  Another dog to play with is lots of fun, or a family that will engage in playtime, long walks and lots of cuddle time would make Lucy very happy.

Layla came to us as an owner surrender as she did not enjoy sharing her home with cats.  They were just too much fun to chase which they did not appreciate.  Other than cats she will happily share her home with other dogs.  She will require training and a family who set boundaries and provide guidance as she learns what is expected of her.  She is young and eager to learn.

Hayden is a calm, easy going boy.  He lost his family and home as they had way too many pets, so he was surrendered to a shelter.  He lived in his previous home with dogs of all sizes, including Chihuahuas.  Hayden would love to have a family of his own, a place to call home where he can relax on a comfy bed, spend time with his family, go on walks and feel safe.  

Reggie came to us from a local shelter. He's a good looking, young, exuberant, energetic  boy that is eager to learn about life. He appears to not have had much in the way of training but is a quick learner. He is outgoing and fun to be around with people he is used to but can sometimes be unsure of new people depending on the situation.

With that said, we are working on socializing him and teaching him how to properly conduct himself. He loves to go for rides in a vehicle and does so quietly. He also loves to play ball but can be a hard chewer. We are confident that he will thrive in a group training program and will provide updates as we learn more about him.

Kolbi was adopted from a shelter at 3 months old and found herself back at the shelter 1 year later.  We are unsure what happened during that year.  She can be timid with new people and will keep her distance, but given time she comes around.  She enjoys the company of other dogs, especially those that will engage her in playtime.  Kolbi is in a foster home, settling in and getting use to her surroundings.  Watch for updates from her foster family.

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.  

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.

Mystique, a beautiful, young girl looking for her forever home and family.  She is settling into her foster home, getting to know the resident dogs and her foster family.  She is a blank slate, but ready to learn all that she needs to know to become a well mannered family member.  Watch for updates from her foster family.

Farrah came to us from a local shelter. The shelter staff told us that she was very sweet and wow, were they right! Once she warms up to you, she will give little kisses. Though Farrah is a little timid in the noisy kennel environment, she is still pretty outgoing even after all the change she has been through recently. She doesn't appear to have been taught any commands. But she is quick to learn and is very inquisitive about what is expected of her and what she is being exposed to. Farrah rides quietly in a vehicle once she jumps in. She doesn't seem to understand what toys are about which is kind of sad. But we are confident she will learn in no time. She also met an adolescent boy today while we at the shelter and she was fine with him. Again, she was curious; just taking in the world around her. Though she is estimated to be approximately 4 years old, in some ways she acts much younger and somewhat puppy-like at times. 

She was introduced to two MAGSR alums today; Snowy (seen receiving kisses from Farrah) and Karma (smaller white and cream mix) and she really liked both of them. She was very comfortable around both and she would do well in a home with a well mannered dog who she can learn from.

Luther along with his brother Woodrow have not had the best of care, but through their years of neglect they have been best buddies and the one constant in their lives.  These boys are very bonded and would not do well separated, they must be adopted as a pair.  The boys are settling into their foster home together and experiencing a life of love and comfort that they so deserve.

Luther is stunning, although his coat and skin are dry at this time the good nutrition he is now receiving will make a big difference.

Magda came to us from a shelter so we have no information about her past.  We do know that she is a sweet, friendly girl looking to the future with her new family.  She needs to put on some weight, with good nutrition it will also help with her dry skin.  Watch for updates from her foster family.

Woodrow along with his brother Luther have not had the best of care, but through their years of neglect they have been best buddies and the one constant in their lives.  These boys are very bonded and would not do well separated, they must be adopted as a pair.  The boys are settling into their foster home together and experiencing a life of love and comfort that they so deserve.

Woodrow is about 30 lbs underweight, he also is missing fur with sores on his body which the vet feels is caused by a Flea infestation which caused dermatitis.  He is now receiving the care and nutrition he so desperately deserves and is under the care of our vet.  We think he is very handsome and will only be even more so once his fur grows back and he gains some much needed weight.

Achilles made his way to us after he had been turned into a shelter by his former family.  He is strikingly handsome, full of puppy energy and mannerisms.  It is obvious that no one ever worked with him on good manners.  A good training program along with structure and consistency will go along way in helping him become a good K9 citizen.  He is no couch potato and has so much too learn, it is important that his new family has the time and patience to work with him.

Lincoln is a young handsome Black and Tan Shepherd.  He still has lots of puppy energy and mannerisms.  He is looking for an active family who take him for long walks or runs and of course lots of playtime.  He is ready to learn the finer things of being a well mannered family member so training is a must.

Grisham is a friendly boy with lots of puppy energy, at only 1 yr he is still a puppy.  Training will go along way in helping him learn good manners and create a bond with his new family.  Young dogs need a lot of attention and guidance, so please be sure you are able to commit to Grisham for the rest of his life.

Missy is a precious four year old shepherd mix. This terrified girl was in her house surviving alone for four weeks after her loving owner passed away. She never left his side and managed to tip over her bag of dog food to survive.Missy is a quiet gentle soul and enjoys having quiet quality time with her fosters.  Missy is indifferent to both dogs and cats. Missy is in a foster so her heart can heal and she can decompress.  Missy is a petite girl, loving known by us a pocket Shepherd.  She would be a wonderful companion for someone who enjoys snuggling, having a loving shadow and just hanging out.  She is extremely loyal to her people and would benefit from a new family to bond with.

Jolene was found as a stray with a pretty significant cut/wound to her leg.  The shelter provided her with medical care but unfortunately her wound has not completely healed.  Jolene has been seen by our vet and will be seeing a specialist to see what can be done to help with the healing of the wound.  This  has certainly cramped Jolene's style as she is a high energy girl who loves to run, play and go for walks.  Exercise helps burn off some of that energy, but she will have to forgo excessive exercise until her leg has completely healed.  Once all healed up she will be ready for a running partner.  Jolene does better with male dogs and non dominant female dogs.

Gianna is a funny loving, full of tail wags, energetic, full of puppy antics girl.  She will require a family with lots of patience as she has so much to learn.  Puppies are a lot of work, they get into things, they chew, they have accidents and require training and socialization.  Please be sure you are prepared for all of the fun, work and committment a puppy requires.

Kiley is a fun loving, full of tail wags, energetic, full of puppy antics girl.  She will require a family with lots of patience as she has so much to learn.  Puppies are a lot of work, they get into things, they chew, they have accidents and require training and socialization.  Please be sure you are prepared for all of the fun, work and committment a puppy requires.

Fiona is a beautiful young girl who found herself at a shelter.  She of course requires training and a family that will provide structure and guidance.  Lots of walks, playtime and exercise of both her body and mind will help keep her energy in check.
