Adopted MAGSR Dogs
These are the most recent MAGSR adoptions. Dogs adopted prior to 2016 can be found here.
Cyndal
ADOPTED 04/30/2017!
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?
Cyndal was found as a stray and taken to a shelter. She is a sweet, sweet girl who gets along very well with other dogs. She adores people, although we have not seen her with children yet. We also do not know how she would do with cats as she has not met any yet. When Cyndal showed up at the shelter she was missing a rear leg, no one has any history on this as she was stray. She has no problems getting around with only 3 legs. In fact tri-paws adapt to a missing limb and can pretty much do all of the same things as 4 legged dogs. Please don't let her missing limb deter you from asking to meet Cyndal to see for yourself how well she gets around and just how sweet she is.
Updates:Cyndal plays with her new toy. She's settling in at her foster home.
Riley
ADOPTED 04/30/2017!
Good With Kids: Unknown

Riley was surrenderedto us after her family could not longer provide for her. Initially, she was very concerned and anxious about what had happened to the world she used to know. But with time and patience, she has settled in to her new routine at the kennel and has become much better. She's bonded very well to two volunteers in particular and loves to please them.
She is extremely intelligent and loves to learn new things as we attempt to keep her mind stimulated. She appears to be very social with other dogs and we are working on learning about her in that regard. She loves to go on car rides, play ball and can be playful and slightly vocal when in play mode.
Riley lived with children and cats in her previous home. However, just because she grew up with children and cats from puppyhood, this does not guarantee that she will peacefully coexist with every child and/or cat she meets that are new to her. We will not place her in a home with children unless she appears to be completely comfortable with them.
In addition, because of hervery fearful behavior after being surrendered to us, her introductions to new people needs to be taken slowly as she seems to be wary of those she doesn't know. If you are interested in her, please be aware that your introduction may take place over more than one visit with her to help build a relationship with her. She had a difficult time with change but we are committed to helping her get to her forever home and this is a process that may take time.
She will require an experienced handler who understands the undesirable behaviors that fearful dogs can exhibit and how to deal with those behaviors should she be put into a situation that is anything less than completely comfortable for her.
We will continue to update you as we learn more about her.
UPDATE: Riley continues to do well! We recently introduced her to MAGSR alum Snowy, a well socialized, even-keeled, passive female. Riley was very inquisitive about her new canine pal. They got along extremely well during our long walk. In addition to her social interaction, we also introduced her to the in ground pool where she is currently residing. It didn't take her long and she was in the pool swimming like a champ! She seemed very comfortable in the water and quickly learned where the steps were to enter and exit the pool. She's also been on the agility equipment and has been seen following her handler across the catwalk.
Hudson
ADOPTED 04/23/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes

Hudson was found as stray with a wound on his abdomen. He received immediate medical care and the wound is just about completely healed. Hudson may be 5 years old but he has the energy of much younger dog. A family that enjoys going for long walks, lots of playtime and of course training would be a good match for Hudson.
Sterling
ADOPTED 04/23/2017!
Good With Kids: Unknown

Sterling is a large, handsome sable male GSD. He is young at 3 years old and full of energy. He will need a good training program along with structure and guidance from his family. With Sterling's energy he would make a great running or hiking partner. He is no couch potato, he will require daily exercise to keep his energy in check.
John Boy
ADOPTED 04/21/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes

This handsome boy is amazing and ever so sweet.
John Boy was found as a stray and taken to a shelter. This wonderful boy is scared but so friendly. He warms up quickly and he's affectionate with everyone he meets. John Boy will lean into his human and rest his head in his human's lap - he just needs to know what it is to have a family who cares for him and loves him. John Boy's tail wags light up a room. John Boy needs to learn and get comfortable on a leash, but he's a smart boy.
Now that John Boy has a warm and loving foster home, he has the opportunity to shine. Currently living with both kids and dogs, John Boy is adjusting well. If John Boy sounds like the right dog for your household, please ask about him today.
