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?
Emmie and her seven adorable babies (Eenie, Meenie, Miney, Moe, Cal, Murray, and Bebe) were dumped at an overcrowded shelter in the south. Although Emmie knew that her future was uncertain, she also knew that the 7 little ones (Eenie, Meenie, Miney, Moe, Cal, Murray, and Bebe) that she brought with her were also in danger. As puppy season is in full swing, many furry families of all sizes are finding themselves in tough situations where, unfortunately, many animals do not make it out alive. Fortunately, for this special family, shelter staff began working with a network of rescues to find options, a loving foster family, and the medical support needed to move forward. MAGSR was lucky to have so many people pulling together to help this family move forward into our care. We are honored to move them forward.
Emmie and her pups have been lucky to have lived in a loving foster family. This gave them all the opportunity to learn some of the ins and outs of living in a home. All of the babies did an incredible job with their foster family and have since moved onto foster homes where they are getting additional love and attention in smaller groups. Miney is a confident and playful girl. She is curious and always ready for an adventure. However, when playtime is finished, she is beyond happy to curl up with her people. Having already begun socializing with new people, animals, and in new environments, Miney is already building a solid foundation. It is imperative that her family continue this process as she moves forward. Miney, like all dogs, will thrive in a home with structure, routine, and leadership. With the right set-up, we know this little cutie will be impressive. Although Miney is special, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your home with endless puppy antics. With time, patience, and training, Miney will become a stable and confident adult. Miney is looking for a forever family that will cherish her for a lifetime. If she sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet her today!
Updates:Miney is a sweet, energetic pup who loves to play with her foster mom's two German Shepherds. She is pretty submissive to them and likes to follow their leads. As a water dog, Miney loves to play in the puppy pool and has even tried laying in the pool while sunbathing. She does amazingly well with dog puzzles and loves snuffle mats too. As is typical with many young dogs, Miney benefits from daily mental and physical exercise to keep her balanced; she loves the routine and clearly enjoys a familiar schedule. Playful and energetic, she loves to play fetch and will bring the ball back every time! Having experienced the joy of living in a foster home, Miney does well in the crate and is working hard to solidify her potty training. She sleeps from 9pm-5am every night! As socialization is critical to her success, Miney has had many opportunities to interact with dogs and people. When out and about she does well on leash and maintains social norms. It is very important that her forever family continue this trend. Although well-behaved with other dogs, Miney has shown that chasing the resident cat is a good time. However, since she is still young, continued practice with and clear boundaries with a future cat are still an option. Miney will be an amazing addition to her future family!
Miney is well-loved in her foster home and has a blast exploring the world. As a big snuggler, she loves to curl up under a blankie. Typical of a clever working dog, Miney does really well when given toys that keep her mentally stimulated - she loves her peanut butter Kongs and she's always up to a challenge when she has to work to find her food, like when it's spread out in a snuffle mat or a knotted towel. Now that she's up-to-date on her shots, she can explore all sorts of public places. She absolutely loves walks; as soon as she sees her harness, she runs to the door excitedly! She deserves a loving home with at least one loving human partner to take her on more amazing adventures. Will you be that home?
Bosco
ADOPTED 10/07/2024!
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?
Aspen and Bosco are a bonded pair of senior MAGSR alumni. Their amazing mom welcomed them as seniors into her family and planned on ensuring that they lived out their lives in the comfort, peace, and security of her home. However, when their mom passed away suddenly, this amazing pair found themselves in need of a new home. Aspen and Bosco were their mom's heart; she loved them beyond words. Knowing she would want them to have a place to grieve, rest, and find comfort, we welcomed Aspen and Bosco back to the MAGSR family.
Unfortunately, both dogs have seen loss before and have said good-bye to their family a few times in their lives. It seems that for some, life simply throws one challenge after another. Although they have seen their fair share of loss, both Bosco and Aspen are sweet, friendly, and loving dogs. They truly are a special pair. Bosco is an easy going guy who goes with the flow. He loves the fresh air and a cozy place to hang. Aspen is social, friendly, and joyful. She brings happiness to everyone she meets. Together they are an impressive pair who are cherished by everyone.
Aspen and Bosco are settling into an amazing foster home. Their foster family is ensuring that they both have everything they need to feel safe and loved. We have promised to honor their mom's memory and provide them with everything she would have wanted for them in their golden years.
Zaniah
ADOPTED 10/05/2024!
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?
Like so many other dogs, Zaniah was picked up as a stray and brought to animal services. She waited ever so patiently for her forever family to come and claim her. Although Zaniah's family did not come for her, she was lucky when another rescue stepped in and took over her care. They knew that this lovely lady was incredible and deserved the chance to move forward safely. Knowing Zaniah was heartworm positive, they placed her in an amazing foster family who lovingly walked her through treatment. As they got to know Zaniah, whose nickname is "Z", they realized this girl really was something special. Living with adult dogs and puppies, Z did well with everyone. Her foster family hadn't met such an incredibly solid dog prior to her arrival. Although the rescue and her foster family were very attached to Z, they knew that she would be best placed through a breed specific rescue. When asked if we could continue to move Z forward, we knew this girl was perfect for the MAGSR family.
Z is a friendly, affectionate, and intelligent girl. She picks up new expectations quickly and is responsive. Sweet as can be, Z was clearly well socialized with people and other animals prior to her arrival. Someone along her journey loved her and did everything they could to help her become a stable and confident pup. It is obvious they did a great job with Z. Having lived in a foster home, Z has had the opportunity to learn about the safety and comfort of a loving household. She did very well adjusting to the routines and expectations of her foster family. However, as every household works a little differently, she will need time to adjust to the expectations of her forever family. With time, patience, structure, and routine, Z will thrive. As Z moves forward it is important that her forever family participate in training. Not only will training gel Z build a strong and healthy bond with her forever family, but it will also help her develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. Z has been waiting for the right family that will adore her forever. If Z sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today!
Onya
ADOPTED 09/28/2024!
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?
Onya, previously known as Onion, was adopted by her mom a few years ago. They were an incredible team. With the help of her mom, Onya completed basic obedience, started scent work, and had the opportunity to develop more advanced skills. They brought endless joy into each other's lives with activities during the day and plenty of cuddles at night. It was beyond evident that these two were meant for each other. Everything was going according to plan and it seemed like they would bring joy to each other for many years. Unbeknownst to the pair, an unimaginable medical diagnosis was looming. Onya's mom received news of a terminal illness that would upend their perfect world. When she realized that Onya would need a safe place to land, Onya's mom contacted our team, shared her story with us, and asked for help. Our team did everything we could to bring comfort to this family and welcomed Onya back to MAGSR.
Onya is a stunning, intelligent, and impressive girl. However, her world has shifted dramatically with the loss of her mom. The grieving process is difficult and can shift personalities sometimes causing skills to go a bit backwards. Until she has fully settled, this sweet girl will likely be skittish and potentially a little over protective of her people. Stability and confidence building will definitely help. Fortunately, Onya is working through this process with the help of a loving foster family. When the right match steps forward, it is imperative that Onya is given time, patience, leadership, and structure in order to make one final adjustment. With routine and clear expectations, we know that this lovely lady will rise to the occasion. Although Onya is in the midst of the grieving process, she does know many of the ins and outs of living in a household. She is housebroken, crate trained, and understands general household routines. However, she will need time to adjust to the expectations of her forever family. Training will also help Onya adjust. Not only will training help Onya develop a strong and healthy bond with her family, but it will also help her continue to develop confidence. Onya is looking for a loving forever family that will provide her with endless adventures and daily snuggles. If this amazing girl sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today!
Updates:Onya is an impressive girl. She is beautiful, intelligent, and active. Definitely a flight risk at first, it takes Onya some time to adjust to new people and environments. However, once she bonds, Onya creates a very strong connection to her handler. When managed effectively, Onya's trust in the handler helps her navigate the world safely and with confidence. If not handled correctly, she can become over protective of her chosen person. As a young dog, Onya has good energy. It is critical that she burns this energy so that she meets with success. Having participated in advanced training, Onya is very smart. She needs to exercise both her body and her mind every day. Over the last few weeks, Onya has made great strides while in our care. We are seeing her personality shine with our volunteers and she has begun showering her favorite handlers with smiles and affection. Moving forward, Onya is looking for a peaceful forever family that can provide her with the time, attention, and affection she deserves. If Onya is the right match for your family, ask to meet this lovely lady today!
Raven
ADOPTED 09/28/2024!
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?
Radiant Raven was, like so many others, picked up as a stray and brought to an overcrowded shelter. Although very sweet and affectionate with shelter staff, Raven was living on borrowed time. Shelters everywhere are drowning in homeless animals that are arriving by the droves on a daily basis. Shelters, rescues, and adopters simply cannot keep up with the overwhelming flow of animals in need. When runs became overcrowded, Raven found herself on this list to be euthanized. Fortunately, the right group stepped in and began advocating for Raven. They began making contacts up and down the coast and were able to extend her time enough to allow MAGSR to step in and welcome Raven to the family.
Raven is simply adorable. As a pocket shepherd, she has a smaller stature and comes in a pint sized portion. Having been socialized by someone along her journey, Raven warms up quickly to calm and confident handlers. However, she can be a little jumpy with fast or unexpected movements. Once comfortable, Raven simply wiggles with excitement. It is clear this little lady still has many puppy like traits and will be more than happy to fill your home with puppy antics. Energetic, intelligent, and a fast-learner, Raven reads the handler well. She looks for direction, guidance, and leadership. She, like all shepherds, will do well when provided with structure and routine. We do not know much about her past; however, it is clear that someone along her way loved this little lady. Raven is looking for a family that will provide her with daily exercise for her body and her mind. Training will be key to her success. Training will not only help Raven create a strong, healthy bond with her family, but it will also help her develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. Raven is looking for a family that will take her on adventures, enjoy her antics, and give her plenty of snuggles. If Raven sounds like the right match for your household, please ask to meet her today!
