Miami
ADOPTED 05/08/2021!
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?
Miami and her siblings, Brewer, Oriole, and Dodger, are part of the Baseball litter. These babies were living in challenging circumstances. Fortunately, their owner was willing to work with a good samaritan to bring them into the safety of the rescue. All four puppies are looking for safe and loving forever homes.
Miami is an absolute love. She brings immediate smiles to the faces of everyone she meets. Full of puppy wiggles and antics, Miami has all the amazing qualities of your typical GSD puppy. Although Miami is a sweetheart, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy antics, they get into things, and they will chew on inappropriate items. With time, patience, guidance and training, Dodger will develop into the good canine citizen that we know she is destined to become. If this beautiful girl sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet her today.
Metro
ADOPTED 05/08/2021!
Good With Kids: Unknown

Metro was confiscated from his owner over a year ago. However, due to legal proceedings, he was unable to move forward until his court case ended. Although safe at the shelter while the case proceeded, once the case ended, Metro needed out and fast as his time was up. Recognizing that Metro is an amazing dog, shelter staff began networking him in an attempt to find a rescue that could help him before it was too late. When we received Metro's plea, we immediately welcomed him into the MAGSR family.
Metro is a big, beautiful guy. Having previously lived in a household, he does understand many of the household rules. However, just like any new dog he will benefit from a refresher. As is true of any GSD, Metro will thrive in an environment with structure, routine, and leadership. It is highly evident that Metro's previous owner took a lot of time to train him. Metro knows commands in both English and German and does well with a handler that is clear about expectations. While living at the shelter, staff found Metro's stable personality to be an asset. He quickly became the dog tester for the shelter. Good with dogs of all sizes, Metro has the benefit of age, maturity, and confidence. Metro is looking for a forever family that will provide him with a safe and loving forever home, could that be with you?
Midnight
ADOPTED 05/08/2021!
Good With Kids: Yes

Midnight's owner loved him dearly. When circumstances beyond his control interfered with this ability to care for Midnight, he was surrendered to a shelter. Midnight immediately won over the shelter staff with his easy-going personality. Unphased by much of what was happening around him, Midnight's stable personality with people and dogs quickly made him a favorite. Although Midnight was available for adoption through the shelter, it was felt that he would have his best chance of finding the right fit through a rescue. At this time we are still getting to know Midnight. As we get to know him better, we will post updates here. If Midnight sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today.
Updates:Midnight’s foster family has reported that he is very friendly, easygoing, and shows no aggression. He shows interest in other dogs, but he is currently separated from the dogs in the home because he is recovering from kennel cough). When he sees other dogs on his walk, he is curious but does not bark or growl. Midnight loves people. He LOVES snuggling and giving kisses. Midnight particularly enjoys going on walks and does well on a leash. He also likes to look out the window, chew on bones, and play with tug toys. He eats well and loves treats. He is housebroken (and has had no accidents), stays in the mudroom at night (and has not cried or barked even once!), and knows basic commands but does not always listen (especially if he is excited to go out for a walk!). Like most dogs, he could benefit from some obedience training!

Midnight has fully recovered from kennel cough, and he has settled in nicely with the foster family’s two German Shepherds. They have become a pack of three who go on walks together, play in the yard, and share toys. Midnight's favorite toys are bones (any and every kind!) and tug toys, but he shares nicely with the other dogs. He and our German Shepherd Vader are in constant competition for the toys, one takes the toys when the other is not looking! But no fighting or aggression at all. Midnight definitely looks up to Vader and wants to be just like him! Midnight is housebroken and sleeps in our mudroom at night without any complaining. He knows when it is bedtime and will go into the mudroom without being asked and waiting for the gate to be put up! Midnight has easily learned basic commands, such as sit. When dinner is being prepared, he waits next to his bowl without being told to do so. Midnight loves to snuggle and makes sure you know when he wants some love (he pushes his head gently into your chest and waits for hugs!). He is a very easy going dog and would fit in well with any family with little adjustment time.
Josh
ADOPTED 05/06/2021!
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?
Josh is simply the cutest little guy. Picked up as a stray, he was lucky to have landed with a caring rescue that made sure he had everything he needed to move forward. Recognizing that Josh would have his best chance at finding a loving forever home in a different region, Josh was transferred into MAGSR's care.
As is true of all puppies, Josh is a combination of cuddles, kisses, cuteness, and energy. Josh is a happy boy who brings joy to everyone around him. Socialized with dogs, kids, cats, and people, Josh is happy to say hi to everyone. As socialization is critical for puppies, Josh's forever family will need to continue this practice as it will help him develop into a stable adult dog. Although Josh is a sweetheart, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy antics, they get into things, and they will chew on inappropriate items. With time, patience, guidance, and training, Josh will develop into the good canine citizen that we know he is destined to be. If this little guy sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet him today!
Milton
ADOPTED 05/02/2021!
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?
Milton and his brother, Teddy, are siblings from different litters. They were living with their parents and a few other dogs on a breeder's property. When the owner could no longer keep the dogs safe, they were surrendered to another rescue. Recognizing that both boys would likely have their best shot at finding their forever home in another region, Milton and Teddy were transferred to MAGSR.
Milton is a friendly guy. Having grown up with dogs of a variety of ages, he enjoys the company of other dogs. However, he is less comfortable around alpha males. According to his owner, Milton has grown up with children and did well with them. Although we know that Milton had an owner, we are not sure if he was kept as an inside dog or an outside dog. We do know that he did not have any vetting prior to his arrival at MAGSR. Unfortunately, Milton is heartworm positive. This diagnosis could have been avoided if he had been provided with monthly heartworm preventatives. Milton has already begun his heartworm treatment and is doing well. The cost of Milton's entire treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Treatment is expensive, but Milton is more than worth the cost. Please consider donating toward Milton's treatment. Your generosity will help us save him and other dogs with medical needs. Although Milton will need to take it slow over the next few months, he will be back to full strength once his treatment is finished. If your household is looking for a big, beautiful guy, please ask to meet him today.
