Description

Goofy and his siblings - Goose, Grace, and Ginger - were confiscated from a puppy mill operation. They are all emaciated and in need of positive interaction. The shelter that confiscated this little family knew that these dogs would need extra support in order to find their forever homes. When MAGSR got the call to take them in, we started putting plans in place to meet their needs.

Although they have survived a horrible situation, Goofy and his siblings are very loveable dogs. Definitely a little skittish, these dogs will excel with patience, leadership, and positive experiences. Goofy is a friendly guy who appreciates gentle but confident handling. He leans in for affection and has easily won over the hearts of our volunteers. We look forward to getting to know Goofy over the next few weeks. If he sounds like a good match for your family, ask to meet him. 

Updates:
Goofy has been in his foster home for about a month now and is adjusting well. He is also putting on some much-needed weight. He is an absolute sweetheart and craves attention from his people. He’s a happy chap whose tail is always wagging. His life is changing for the better and he seems to know it. Goofy is an energetic, clumsy, large boy who is going to get larger—so he would probably be better placed with older children. He’s been friendly with everyone he has met and gets along with other dogs. He enjoys playing with his foster siblings and will do well with a playmate in his size range. In the yard he seems to enjoy spending as much time getting attention from people as running and playing. He is still skittish around sudden movements and loud noises, however, he has become more comfortable in his surroundings. He is crate trained and sleeps well through the night. He will retreat to his crate for comfort if he’s nervous. He enjoys walks and doesn’t pull on the leash but will benefit from the bond he will form with his people through training. In an unfamiliar place or situation, he will rely on his person for reassurance. In his foster home, he is living with two smaller female dogs to whom he is submissive. At the vets and when being bathed he was nervous but behaved well. He isn’t sure what to do with toys yet. Goofy would love a family of his own for the holidays, could that be yours?!

Updates:
Goose is making the the transition to living in a home quite nicely. She often retreats to her crate when scared and she sleeps all night in the crate without any problems. We're happy to report that we've not had any "accidents" but we do walk her frequently where she has been relieving herself outdoors. Goose craves attention and is gets along with our German Shepherd dog. Given her loving personality I feel certain that as she puts her horrible past behind her Goose will blossom and be an outstanding addition to any family. As for Goose's name, spend some time with her and you'll see why she was aptly named.

Description

Sweet little Joey is one of Sheena's puppies. Just like his amazing mom, Joey is a survivor. He and his seven siblings - Jaxx, Jacob, Jaycee, Joshua, Jason, James, and Jazzmine - were removed from their home just in the nick of time. With several good samaritans along the way, this family made their way to the MAGSR family. 

Joey is a handsome boy and is fortunate to have the kindness of his mother in him. This playful guy brings smiles to everyone around him. Although Joey is a special boy, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy antics and can be mischievous – they will whine, have accidents, get into things, and chew on inappropriate things. With time, patience, guidance, and training, Joey will develop into the good canine citizen he is destined to become. If Joey sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet this handsome boy today.

Description

Samme was a beloved member of her family. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen changes, they could no longer take care of her. As a result, they made the difficult decision to surrender her to MAGSR.

Samme is a stunning girl and catches the attention of everyone around her. As it true of many owner surrenders, Samme was very scared when she first joined the MAGSR family. So many changes can be confusing and upsetting. However, with the help and support of her incredible foster family, Samme is slowly gaining confidence. Very dedicated to her people, Samme is good about protecting her house and will alert if there are odd sounds in the area. Samme enjoys toys but will need toys meant for strong dogs as she does think that tearing them apart is a good time. A big fan of car rides, Samme is excited to go on adventures and does settle nicely in the car. Although Samme arrived with some basic training started, continued training is a must so that Samme can develop a bond with her new family as well as further develop her overall confidence.

If Samme sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today.
