Sage
ADOPTED 08/29/2025!
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?
From the moment she came home as a puppy, Sage was deeply loved. Her family gave her the best start in life — plenty of affection, care, and daily playtime. But when life took an unexpected turn, they made the incredibly selfless decision to surrender her to MAGSR, knowing she deserved more than they could give at the time. Surrendering is never an easy decision; however, when it is in the best interest of the dog, it is the right thing to do.
Now in our care, Sage continues to shine. This intelligent and perceptive girl responds beautifully to a calm and confident handler and is settling in well to her new placement. As with all new dogs, she’s being given time to decompress and adjust to her new environment — and with her soulful eyes and lovely spirit, she’s already winning hearts. Sage is loyal and eager to connect with her people. She thrives with structure, stimulation, and a clear sense of purpose. Like many shepherds, if she senses a lack of confident leadership, she may try to take control of the situation. That said, she is very receptive to guidance and rises to the occasion when given clear expectations.
A definite ball dog, Sage looks forward to her daily play sessions and will enthusiastically chase a ball around the yard. When training is thoughtfully woven into play, she’s quick to engage and learn. To support her growth, Sage has started working with one of our amazing community training partners — building confidence, sharpening commands, and learning to follow the handler’s lead. Continued training will be essential to her long-term success, as it is for all dogs.
Having previously lived in a home, Sage already understands many of the ins and outs of household life. She is housebroken and crate trained, enjoys brushing sessions, and knows the comfort of a soft bed. Still, like any new dog, she’ll need patience and time to adjust to the routines and expectations of her forever family. Proper decompression, leadership, and a set of routines will be key to her success.
Sage is searching for a home that will offer her the love, consistency, and structure that all dogs deserve — a family who will nurture her strengths and guide her gently through continued learning. In return, she offers her whole heart: a lifetime of loyalty, companionship, and unconditional love. If Sage sounds like the right match for your household, don’t wait — ask to meet her today!
Lilliana
ADOPTED 08/27/2025!
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?
Lovely Lilliana was picked up as a stray and brought to an overcrowded shelter. Her story is similar to so many dogs that end up in crowded runs hoping that they will be the lucky one to make it out alive. Although shelter staff work tirelessly to find the animals in their care safe and loving placements, sometimes the numbers of animals and needs are beyond overwhelming. The shelter where Lilliana was located was so inundated with dogs that she was overlooked until it was almost too late. Scheduled to be euthanized, another rescue realized that Lilliana needed a miracle. They knew she would be an incredible match for the right household but they didn't have an opening for her. Knowing that MAGSR may have an option for Lilliana, they reached out. We knew we couldn't let this little girl lose her light. So, with an incredible team effort the rescue community came together and pulled Lilliana before it was too late.
Lilliana is definitely filled with light and love. Friendly, easy to handle, and a lover, it is highly obvious that this girl was loved along her journey. A huge fan of the outdoors, Lilliana is easy to leash up and enjoys being outside. Joyful and playful, Lilliana will happily bounce around outside but is also content to get pets and love. Typical of the breed, Lilliana will be most successful in an environment where both her body and mind are exercised on a daily basis. Training will go a long way with this gorgeous girl. Not only will training help her develop a healthy bond with her forever family, but it will also help her build the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. Although we do not know anything about her past, we have discovered that Lilliana is already housebroken and crate trained. However, she doesn't always love the crate and can do some talking. Like any new dog, Lilliana will thrive with structure, routine, leadership, and clear expectations. This will help her adjust to the expectations of her forever family.
Unfortunately, Lillian is heartworm positive. This diagnosis could have easily been avoided had she been kept up to date with preventatives. Knowing that Lilliana needed to move forward with treatment, the rescue began the first steps in this process and our team already has plans for next steps. Heartworm treatment is expensive, but we know that lovely little Lillian is more than worth the cost. Please consider donating to Lilliana's care. Your donation will not only help Lilliana, but it will also help us continue to welcome dogs with medical needs to the MAGSR family. Lilliana will need to take it easy over the next couple of months during treatment. However, this will help her take the time to decompress and adjust to her forever family. If Lilliana sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet this girl today.

Good With Kids: Older kids, over 16

Little Lucie was found at animal services by another amazing rescue. Recognizing that this lovely girl needed a safe option to move forward, they welcomed Lucie into their care. Lucie was showered with love and care - exactly what she needed. When visiting with one of our volunteers, a conversation about next steps for Lucie came about. Lucie was clearly a good girl but could use a little support with confidence. Knowing we had an option available that would provide Lucie with exactly what she needed to move forward, we welcomed her to the MAGSR family.
Little Lucie is an absolute sweetheart. Intelligent, responsive, and affectionate, this girl has already brought endless smiles to our volunteers. Still very young, Lucie is in many ways still a puppy. She is goofy, playful, and active. As is true with all of our young dogs, Lucie will need continued socialization in order to meet with success. Opportunities to learn about new people and animals in a variety of safe and controlled environments will help Lucy continue to learn about the world around her. Training will also be critical to Lucie's success. Not only will training help Lucie build a healthy and lasting bond with her forever family, but it will also help her develop the skills she needs to become a good canine citizen. Lucie is a lucky girl and has been placed with one of our amazing training partners - Mason Dixon K9. They are already working with Lucie to develop her confidence and obedience. She is already learning so much. As she moves forward, continued training to enhance Lucie's skills will continue to strengthen her foundation. As a little pocket rocket, this little lady may even be a good candidate for agility. Crate trained already, Lucie can't wait to find a family of her very own. She hopes to fill her days with playtime, activities, and cuddles.
Lucie is a joyful girl who is looking for a family that will love her for a lifetime. If this little love sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet Lucie today!
Bear
ADOPTED 08/22/2025!

Good With Kids: Older Kids Only
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
This gorgeous boy found himself in the care of another rescue determined to make sure he landed in a safe and loving home. When that rescue later reached out for help with some of the dogs in their care, MAGSR didn't think twice before stepping forward to assist - as we all know, teamwork makes the dream work.
At just a year old, Bear is still discovering the world and learning how to navigate it with curiosity and heart. Like many young dogs, he’s motivated to bond, quick to learn, and ready to belong. Super-smart and hungry for mental stimulation, Bear is soaking up training opportunities and responding well to consistency and positive reinforcement as he learns what it means to be a well-mannered adult. He’s making strides with housebreaking, crate training, and basic manners. With continued structure and guidance, his potential is limitless. Like any new dog, Bear will thrive with routine, leadership, and clear expectations; this will help him adjust smoothly and build a strong bond with his forever family. As a fun, energetic young boy, Bear still has plenty of silly goofball antics and lots of love to give as he matures into his adult self. Like any shepherd, he'll also need a home that will make sure he gets mental and physical exercise on a daily basis. If you’re interested in this handsome guy, ask to meet him today.
Coconut Bay
ADOPTED 08/22/2025!
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?
Not all babies come into the world surrounded by love, warmth, and safety. While some are born into nurturing homes that ensure every need is met, others arrive in conditions that are heartbreaking to witness. Sadly, the nine Island Puppies — Country Lemonade, Coconut Bay, Beach Walk, Early Sunrise, Island Guava, Maple Pancake, Mountain Lodge, Pomegranate, and Vanilla Cloud — were born into the latter.
Emaciated, sick, and covered in dirt, feces, and fleas, these fragile babies were confiscated by animal control and brought to a local shelter. Too young to be adopted and far too vulnerable for a shelter environment, a plea for help went out. Thankfully, another rescue organization stepped in with a foster placement and pulled the entire family to safety. From the moment they arrived, it was clear these pups needed immediate and intensive care. Vaccinations were given. Deworming treatments began. Medicated baths washed away layers of neglect. Vet checks were scheduled, feeding schedules established — and slowly, steadily, these babies began to heal.
The Island Litter is a group of true survivors. Despite enduring more hardship in their first few weeks than any puppy should, they remain joyful, loving, and eager to connect. Like all German Shepherds, they are intelligent, energetic, and deeply loyal. Knowing these pups would thrive best within a breed-specific rescue, the organization that initially saved them reached out to MAGSR — and we didn’t hesitate. These puppies deserved the best chance at a safe and happy life, and we were honored to welcome them to the MAGSR family.
Today, the Island Litter is flourishing in foster homes, each one surrounded by love, structure, routine, and care. They’re working hard on crate training and housebreaking, enjoying meals and playtime, and soaking up all the affection they can get. Quick and clever, they’re food-motivated — which makes future training a breeze! But please remember: puppies are a lot of work. They’ll chew, whine, make messes, and keep you on your toes. They’ll also fill your home with laughter, love, and unforgettable moments. With consistency, patience, and commitment, each of these pups has the potential to grow into an incredible adult dog.
If you have the heart, time, and dedication to help one of these special puppies continue their journey, apply today. They’ve survived the unimaginable — now they deserve a lifetime of safety, love, and belonging.
