Lolly
ADOPTED 05/19/2018!
, 
Good With Kids: Yes, older kids
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Lolly was dumped at a shelter extremely emaciated. Doing some research her original owner was found. Lolly was given away in Dec and ended up in a shelter in March. She has gained some weight but still needs more. She is such a sweet and loving girl. Lolly has EPI, Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency. This is caused when the pancreas does not produce enough enzymes to properly digest food. This is very easily treated by adding enzymes to each meal which helps the body digest food. More information can be found at epi4dogs.com along with before and after pictures of dogs that have EPI.
Lolly is now receiving the enzymes she needs and is gaining weight. Please do not let EPI deter you from considering Lolly, she deserves a family to love and care for her and in return she will give you her devotion.
Updates:Lolly is quickly adapting to life in her foster home. She crates nicely and is only noisy when she needs to go out to do her business and has proven to be housebroken so far. She likes to play fetch, has good ball drive, and tug - she's learning the "out or drop it" command so it’s best to have two balls. Lolly gets along well with the resident large dog. She gets very aroused when she knows her food is being prepared with the enzymes and she does better separated from any other dogs during feeding time. Lolly has been friendly to all humans she has met and enjoys affection - especially the butt rub. She seemed appreciative of the bathing process especially all the massaging and rubbing. Lolly knows some basic commands and doesn’t pull to much on the leash. Lolly is very smart and she will take advantage of her human without consistency, so she’ll need someone who can teach her the rules. If you’re looking for a young dog with medium energy - ask to see beautiful Lolly!
More about the lovely Lolly - she loves water and will get the zoomies after swimming; she loves to play fetch and doesn’t want to stop; she knows sit, down, heel, kennel up and is learning place. Lolly doesn't reacted to other dogs, even reactive ones. Lolly whines when she needs to go out, is excited or wants attention. She likes to be with people and she enjoys being brushed. Lolly rides quietly in the car, crated or not crated. Lolly barks to alert only with good reason. Lolly loves to chew nylabones; was very good at the vets; and is overall a well mannered, balanced dog. Lolly has so much to give - ask to see her today!
Dietra
ADOPTED 05/18/2018!
Good With Kids: Yes

Dietra came to us as an owner surrender. She was much loved by her previous family which included young children and a male GSD. Dietra is a very sweet girl who is in need of a family of very own. Dietra did arrive in our care not putting weight on her rear leg, we had her seen by our vet who recommended she be seen by a orthopedic specialist. Dietra has an appointment scheduled for this coming week to see the specialist in order to find out, if anything, is wrong with her leg. Once we know we will post an update.
Updates:Dietra has been seen by an Orthopedic Specialist. Dietra has a bone infection which is being treated. It was also discovered that Dietra has a torn ACL, once the infection has cleared up she will have TPLO surgery to repair the tear.
MAGSR is committed to Dietra's treatment and surgery. This is a costly endeavor, but Dietra is so worth it. Donations towards her surgery are greatly needed and very much appreciated, no amount is too small. Please help us help Dietra and the many other dogs that rely on us to keep them healthy and safe.
King
ADOPTED 05/15/2018!
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?
King made his way to us after he was confiscated by Animal Control for running at large and lack of proper care. He is approximately 4 years old. He is a little shy upon first meeting new people, but he quickly warms up and leans in to be petted. He seems to be a very nice boy that just needs stability, love and care.
Updates:Once in our care, our volunteers noticed King may have some difficulty seeing everything that is happening around him, so MAGSR had King seen by an eye specialist who diagnosed King with Progressive Retinal Atrophy in both eyes. The doctor feels it could be congenital or event related onset. King is totally blind in his right eye and has partial sight in his left eye. At the vet's recommendation, MAGSR is starting King on a dietary supplement, Ocuvite, which is inexpensive and can be purchased online easily. Going forward, King will need to be seen once a year by an eye specialist. King's foster mom reports he was an amazing patient and through all the tests, he was gentle and cooperative - he even gave the vet a kiss when they were done. King's personality outshines everything else. King is wonderful in the home and quickly gets out of the resident cat's way. On his walks, King is friendly to everyone he meets - adults, kids and other dogs. He rides well in the car, is housebroken, and does well on a leash. He's not fond of the crate, but he does wonderful when free in the house. King can get easily spooked but that may have to do with his limited sight - when he gets scared, he just backups and doesn't bark or growl. He is learning about the steps and that they aren't a bad thing. King loves his food and treats and will sit nicely for them. King is a wonderful guy and anyone who meets him won't focus on his limited sight, but rather what a great dog and companion he is.
Bo
ADOPTED 05/13/2018!
Good With Kids: Older kids, over 12
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Bo came to us from a shelter, so we have no history on him. He can be picky about his dog friends and may do best as an only dog or with female dogs. Training of course will go a long way helping Bo settle in, learn some manners and how to properly interact with other dogs. With people he is very friendly, although we do not know how he is with children at this time.
Updates:Bo is great dog, and he's doing nicely in foster. His weight is up to 84lbs from 69lbs a month ago, and he loves to run and is building muscle - he is really looking good. He has been going to training for a few weeks and is doing very well the class, both with his basic commands and in terms of his confidence and socialization. He does fine in his crate (although he will start to make a racket sometimes if he feels he's missing out on something!), is house broken, and has acclimated well, and is happy and comfortable with his two older GSD foster siblings. Bo still has a lot to learn, but overall he's a very sweet and responsive dog, that is progressing well and will make a great addition to the right lucky home, that is ready to provide the care and love that Bo so richly deserves.
Handsome a sweet Bo was returned to MAGSR thru no fault of his own after his family decided they no longer wanted him. Bo’s prior family never truly committed to him and he spent most of his time in a crate. Bo is an active and friendly boy who needs exercise and continued training, as do most German Shepherds. Bo is ready for a forever family who will truly commit to him, spend time with him and not lock him in a crate and not give him up when he becomes an inconvenience. If interested in meeting this handsome boy, ask to meet Bo today!
Oliver
ADOPTED 05/12/2018!
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?
Oliver was surrendered as he was not good with the resident cats. He was originally adopted from a shelter in Niagara Falls, Canada. His adopters moved and could not take him so they left him with their parents in TN who had cats. So as you can see he is well travelled on the East Coast. He is a friendly boy who would just like to settle his paws in a forever home, one without cats of course.
