GrizzlyGrizzlyGrizzlyGrizzlyGrizzlyGrizzlyGrizzly
Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 10 years 4 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: Large
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Working on it
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Older kids, over 10
Good With Cats: Unknown
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Grizzly is the son of Apache and the brother to Keena.  Grizzly does best with another dog as they help him relax.  He is somewhat shy, he will require someone with patience and who will work on helping him build his confidence.  Training will go along way and certainly help with him getting use to being on a leash.  He is a sweet boy just a little unsure, it is obvious he was not well socialized, but with your help he should blossom.

ADOPTED 12/02/2017!

Cyrus
CyrusCyrusCyrusCyrus & Foster Bro, SHermanCyrus
Embedded thumbnail for Cyrus-MAGSR-2017
Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Mix
Approximate Age: 9 years 2 days
Color: Black, White and Brown
Current Size: 56 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 65 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Working on it
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: Unknown
Other Dogs OK: Yes, with proper introduction
DESCRIPTION:

Cyrus is very puppylike. He does know how to sit and give paw. But he needs general obedience. He is a fun, smaller guy that would greatly benefit from group training so that he learns how to socially interact with other dogs.

He loves people. He loves to play fetch with a ball and is eager to explore new things. He likes car rides, is very food motivated and is eager to please his person.

He will need someone with patience and time to teach him right from wrong. Because he's a little grabby and hard on the fingers when it comes to taking treats, he might be better suited in a household without toddlers or very young children.

Updates:

Cyrus is progressing nicely! With regards to his behavior, he is learning what is expected and what is not permitted. He's a fun, charismatic, exuberant pup. We have been socializing him with Sherman (another MAGSR dog) and they get along quite well, reason being that Sherman is a calm, confident, socialized dog. This would be an ideal time for Cyrus to get into a foster home or adoptive home and to start obedience training as he is showing the wilingness to focus on commands and tasks.

Just recently, Cyrus’ manners have improved a lot and he is really showing signs of maturing. He is now being worked with another socialized, well balanced dog and behaving himself very nicely. He is also taking treats much better and his focus is continuing to improve. In addition to this, he was just recently introduced to several people he did not know including children and we are very proud of the way he conducted himself.

He is an awesome dog. He is happy to be with his people and a playful goofy puppy. He loves marrow bones with peanut butter and playing with toys in general. He also loves to give HUGS!  He does better in a vari-kennel as opposed to a wire crate. He has not had any accidents in the house.  We are working through his crate anxiety. We play music for him, have used lavender in the room to soothe him and calming treats bought at Pet Value and we have not had issues with him breaking out of our crate. He absolutely loves car rides and meeting new people! He does have some bad habits such as counter surfing but he easily corrects. He does still need strong guidance as he does tend to want to push him limits as he is a young male full of life!!

Dasha

ADOPTED 11/29/2017!


DashaDashaDashaDashaDashaDashaDasha
Gender: Female
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 12 years 10 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 62 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: No
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: Yes, with proper introduction
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Dasha found herself dumped at a shelter.  She is a gorgeous long hair 5 year old girl.  She has not had the best of care, her coat sparse, full of dirt and fleas.  She has some hair loss, a skin and ear infection from flea dermatitis and poor nutrition.  She is now being well cared for in her foster home.  She has been treated for fleas and her skin infection and she is eating a high quality food with some supplements.  She needs to gain some weight and grow back some of her coat but she is beautiful regardless.  She enjoys playing with other dogs but can sometimes be bossy and pushy.  She would do best with a non dominant dog, as she wants to be the queen.

Updates:

I’m settling in at my foster-home with my foster brother. I love to cuddle, have my belly rubbed and my nose scratched. I love taking long walks and playing with my foster brother. At first I wasn’t sure about playing with toys but now I love playing with tennis balls. My foster Mom took me to the vet to get medicine to help fur grow back and now I look so much better and my fur is so soft. I’m gaining weight and getting better with basic commands but I still have a lot to learn. 
 

I’m doing great at my fosters house. My fur has all grown back and I had to have 6 teeth pulled because I wore them down so much. It doesn’t bother me at all that I have missing teeth you just have to hold you hand flat for me if you have a small treat. I love meeting new people when my fosters take me places with them and I love riding in the car. I’m doing better and better every day with my basic commands and I really want to learn more. My foster Mom say I look funny when I play fetch because I try to catch the ball with my paws and mouth at the same time. I can’t wait to find my forever home and to have someone to love!

I’m doing great at my fosters but I hope to find my forever home soon. I love kids and I’m good with cats. I love going on adventures, meeting new people (especially kids), playing fetch with my foster and with myself and playing with my fosters dog Jake. I'm good at walking on a leash and I’m getting better with my basic commands every day. I can’t wait to take a class so I can learn so much more.

Nala

Gender: Female
Breed: German Shepherd Mix
Approximate Age: 8 years 5 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 40 lbs
Housebroken: Unknown
Obedience Trained: No
Altered: No

Good With Kids: Unknown
Good With Cats: Unknown
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Nala was surrendered to a shelter as her family was moving.  Sweet Nala was so frightened at the shelter, her world was turned upside down.  She would love to be out of a kennel and back into a home with a family of her very own, one that will cherish her for her lifetime.  She may very well be house broken, as she keeps her kennel area clean and waits to be taken outside to go potty.  She is young, full of energy and puppy playfulness.  Of course she requires training to learn good canine manners and leash skills.

Approximate Age: 8 years 6 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 52 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Yes
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: Unknown
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Trey is a sweet 7 month old black & tan bi-color.  He is still very much a puppy, full of playfulness and puppy antics.  He has a lot to learn and that is where training comes in.  He will learn good manners, leash skills and obedience all while creating a bond with his new family.  Direction, consistency, exercise, walks, playtime and love for his lifetime, are you ready to make the commitment....if so ask to meet Trey

Updates:

We've had Trey for nearly a week and he has been great.  He gets along well with our resident dog as well as other dogs he met at a local park.  He has shown no signs of aggression, quite the opposite, his tail is in constant motion and loves attention and playing with our dog (we have no idea what he'll do around cats). He has taken to crate training nicely and there have been no accidents.  In his short time with us he has learned sit and is getting better about walking on a leash, he appears quite happy to be engaged with training.  All indications are he'll make a fantastic addition to your family.
