Boyka
ADOPTED 04/09/2018!
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?
Boyka was surrendered to us as his former person was very busy with his graduate studies. He knew that Boyka needed more time and attention then he could give him. Boyka is very well behaved for a 7 month old puppy, he is housebroken and crate trained. He will whine and bark when first going into his crate but will settle. He absolutely loves the company of other dogs, both males and females, he wants to be near them all of the time. He is currently in a foster home with another GSD and Boxer, both are seniors and he does so well with them. He does have a lot of puppy energy, he enjoys going for walks, playing and running in the yard and a good game of keep away is a lot of fun. He does not have perfect leash manners, but they aren't bad for a dog of his age. He is a sponge and soaking up everything his foster mom is teaching him. He has met children of varying ages and did well, but he does not take treats gently and his energy level may be too much for little ones. Boyka is very ready for a good training program and a new forever family.
Clarke

Clark is a handsome German Shepherd puppy who is approx.10 mos. old. Clark was rescued from a bad situation, his owner died and the other relatives threw him out to fend for himself. Despite his size he is still a puppy - happy, inquisitive, and wanting to please, but also needing guidance and patience from his new family. .Clark will need the full range of obedience training classes to help him be the best grown-up dog he can be. Training will also allow Clark to form a bond with his new family. This boy has been through a lot in his short life but is now ready to find a new home and a new family to love.
Updates:Clarke is a wonderful dog and very friendly. Sadly, sweet Clarke tested heartworm positive when seen by a MAGSR vet. He obviously was not started early on monthly Heartworm Preventatives which would have protected him. MAGSR will make sure Clarke gets the treatment he needs to rid his body of Heartworms so that he may enjoy many more years of life. Treatment is expensive but Clarke is certainly worth the cost. Donations towards his treatment would be greatly appreciated – this would also help us save other dogs with medical needs.
Clarke is a happy-go-lucky pup who has settled nicely into his foster home. As a young energetic pup, he has made a lot of progress with a little leadership and consistency. Although it seems that Clarke has had little experience on a leash or with training, this intelligent boy is quickly picking up on new skills. Clarke is learning sit, down, heel, and watch. His foster family reports that this treat motivated boy is always happy to learn a new skill particularly, if a training treat is involved. Clarke has begun some basic training but will definitely need to attend formal training with his forever family. Training will not only help Clarke bond with his new family but, it will also provide him with the guidance needed to address puppy behaviors such as mouthing and jumping.
Due to his heartworm positive status, Clarke isn't able to run and play the way a young dog typically would at this time. However, Clarke is handling his restrictions like a champ. He is very well behaved in the crate and is making great progress with housebreaking. Having learned the joy of a good bone, a few comfortable blankets and a strong chew toy, Clarke seems unfazed by his current circumstance. Although Clarke will need to take it easy for a couple months as he undergoes heartworm treatment, he can't wait to find his forever family!

Luna came to us from a shelter so we have no history on her. We do know that it looks as though she has had multiple litters. Well her mom days are now over. It is her time to shine as a family pet. She is as sweet as can be with everyone she meets, a well behaved girl.
Diesel
ADOPTED 04/07/2018!

Diesel was surrendered to a shelter when his family moved and could not take him with them. Diesel can take a bit of time to feel comfortable with new people, he just likes a slow approach. Once you have given him time he bonds quickly, especially with women. He enjoys being out for walks and play time, he is good with other dogs and enjoys spending time with his family. This very handsome boy is looking for a family who will commit to him for his lifetime. Training is a must as it will help Diesel build confidence. He requires a leader so that he can feel comfortable.
Updates: Hi guys, Diesel here! I wanted to tell you how much better I am doing now that I am in a foster home. The kennel made me feel insecure and nervous but now I'm feeling much more confident and love to play fetch. I'll even drop the ball for you on command. My foster mom says I already know some basic obedience such as heel, sit, stay, down, and crate. Speaking of my crate,I am the perfect gentleman in it and will go in on command, it's my space and I'm good with that a l thought I probably can be trusted free to roam but foster mom has not tested that out yet. I still take a little time to warm up to new people but once I know you I'm your shadow and welcome belly rubs and will nuzzle you with my head and crawl between your legs for attention. I can be protective of my handler and the home but with proper guidance I will follow your lead. I am not a couch potato so taking me for plenty of walks and allowing me to run around to expend energy is a must. I've proven to my foster mom how smart I am with this thing where she hides treats in a puzzle and I have to use my nose to open different compartments, boy is that a lot of fun! Some of my favorite things are Kong squeaky balls, bully sticks, and tug toys. Foster mom tells me what a wonderful boy I am and that my forever family is out there somewhere, could that be you?! Dax

Dax is a very handsome and big boy. He came to us from a shelter so we have no history for him. He is very friendly with people and enjoys spending time with them. He has done well with other dogs, although he will react to other dogs that bark at him. He would probably do best with a submissive dog, but one that enjoys playtime. He has a more laid back personality, such a wonderful boy.
Updates:Dax is settling in great in his foster home. He’s mellow and does well free in the house – Dax is a very large boy, so he needs a rather large crate. Dax is very strong and big. Dax rides well and is very attentively curious about wildlife (squirrels, geese birds, etc.) and all seem new to him, so he may not have been a country dog in the past. Dax seems to have had some obedience training, but needs to sharpen his skills. Dax loves to snuggle up to his foster mom and dad and likes his chill out and quiet time. Dax is a dog with tremendous potential. If this big loveable boy seems like the perfect fit for your family, ask to meet Dax today!
