Piglet
ADOPTED 04/12/2024!
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?
The Hundred Acre Woods Puppies - Winnie, Piglet, Eeyore, and Tigger - were confiscated in the south due to cruelty and neglect. These babies had been placed in a small, confined area filled with garbage and feces. Unable to fend for themselves, they had limited access to water and were found without access to any food. Due to these horrifying conditions, when animal control officers arrived, the babies were immediately confiscated and brought to a loving foster family that began their road to recovery. Although the pups were finally receiving the care and interaction needed to meet with success, a rescue plea went out as extreme overcrowding has significantly limited shelter's ability to meet the needs of all of the animals in their care. These babies needed safe passage to move forward and MAGSR and another GSD rescue in the area, All Shepherd Rescue, were ready to help.
Working collaboratively with ASR, we were able to ensure that all of the puppies within the 100 Acre Woods litter had a rescue option and loving foster home ready for their arrival. These babies are in many ways your typical GSD puppies. They are playful, interactive, full of energy and puppy snuggles. Although they had a rough start, the puppies are incredibly resilient and are ready for forever families that will cherish them for a lifetime. Although Piglet is an absolute doll, 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, training, patience, and structure, we know the 100 Acre Puppies are destined to be incredible adult dogs. If your family is ready for endless hours of puppy joy, please ask to meet Piglet today!
Hank
ADOPTED 04/07/2024!
Good With Kids: Unknown

Handsome Hank was brought home as a puppy. His family loved him a lot, but due to a change in circumstances, they needed to rehome Hank. Recognizing that Hank deserved every opportunity to meet with success, his family reached out to MAGSR to see if we could help Hank move forward. How could we possibly say no to this big, goofy boy.
Hank is playful, energetic, and looking for a leader. In many ways, Hank is your typical puppy. He loves toys, bouncing around, and interacting with his people. Well socialized with other people, Hank is comfortable meeting new people, but he does still need to learn a few rules, such as, the importance of keeping his paws on the ground. Clearly food motivated, this guy picks up new expectations quickly. He does very well with a clear, confident, and calm handler. As is true of all shepherds, Hank will thrive with structure, routine, and leadership. He is hoping to find a forever family that will exercise both his body and his mind on a daily basis. Some time to play with toys also sounds like an ideal day to Hank. As Hank moves forward, it is essential that he participates in training. Not only will training help Hank create a strong and healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. Hank is looking for a forever family that will cherish him for a lifetime. Could that family be with you?
Autumn
ADOPTED 04/06/2024!
Good With Kids: Likely

The Fall puppies - Autumn, Cider, Ember, Maple, Pumpkin, and Sweet Potato (Tator) - were an accidental litter. Raised together with their parents, these dogs have had the chance to learn many doggy social skills. Although their human family enjoyed the puppies, it can be difficult to care for a large litter and challenging to find safe and loving homes. Recognizing that the Fall puppies would be most successful if placed within a breed specific rescue, their family contacted MAGSR. We promised that we would find each pup a safe and loving forever family that would cherish these babies for a lifetime.
The Fall puppies are very large babies for their age. They are clearly big fans of food. Having spent time outside, these babies love the sights, sounds, and smells of the outdoors. So, they are hoping their forever families love adventures. Although these babies have been socialized well with their doggy family, they have not been exposed to many new people or situations. Socialization is critical to their success. Recognizing that social skills are essential as the Fall puppies move forward, our amazing volunteers are already beginning this process. Learning the ins and outs of living in a household, these babies are learning the joys of endless toys, comfortable beds, and loads of love. As they continue to move forward, all six babies will strive in households that will provide the structure, routine, and leadership that all shepherds crave.
Although these babies are absolutely adorable, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. Puppies will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your home with endless antics. With time, training, and patience, all 6 babies - Autumn, Cider, Ember, Maple, Pumpkin, and Sweet Potato - will develop into good canine citizens. If one of the Fall puppies sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet these fluffy bundles of joy today!
Updates:Autumn is an intelligent and spunky girl. With a goofy and silly side, Autumn keeps her foster family entertained for hours. She has clearly learned the joy of toys and is happy to play for hours. True of many of our more alpha-minded dogs, Autumn can be intense and have a lot of GSD energy. As a strong female, she is going to push boundaries and see what she can get away with. Autumn is looking for a forever family that will provide her with the structure, routine, and leadership that all GSDs need to thrive. It is important that she exercise both her body and her mind on a daily basis. As Autumn is driven and eager to please, she is the perfect candidate for training. Fortunately, Autumn's foster family has already started this process. Not a surprise, Autumn is a star student. As Autumn moves forward, continued training will be needed. Additional training will not only help Autumn create 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. Autumn is looking for an active family that will provide her with adventures during the day and a good cuddle at night. If this lovely girl sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet her today!
Oakley
ADOPTED 04/05/2024!
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?
Oakley and his brother, Wicker, were living with a family that was not interested in continuing to care for the boys. Although socialized with kids, cats, and other dogs, these guys were not receiving the care they needed to move forward. Fortunately, another group heard that the boys needed help, and they stepped forward to get them out of a rough situation. Recognizing that shepherds are most successful when placed with a breed specific rescue, this rescue reached out to MAGSR to see if we could welcome the boys to the family. With an incredible team of volunteers working together between both rescues, we were able to welcome Oakley and Wicker to the MAGSR family.
Oakley and Wicker are in many ways your typical goofy, playful, snuggly guys. They enjoy the company of their people and other animals. Living with one of our amazing foster families, these boys are learning the ins and outs of living within a household. They are getting endless opportunities to socialize with new people and in new environments. It is critical that their forever families continue this process as it will help them develop into stable and confident adult dogs. Although Oakley is absolutely adorable, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your household with endless puppy antics. With time, training, and patience, we know that Oakley will become a good canine citizen. If your family is looking for a handsome, young guy to fill you home with smiles and laughter, look no further than Oakley.
Jethro
ADOPTED 04/05/2024!
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?
Sweet Jethro was originally pulled from a high-kill shelter in California when he was three. Although his family loved Jethro dearly, when circumstances changed unexpectedly, they had no choice but to say good-bye to this handsome guy. Recognizing that Jethro needed a safe and loving place to move forward, MAGSR welcomed him to the family. Knowing that Jethro was a beloved member of the family, we promised we would find him an amazing forever family that would cherish him throughout his golden years.
Jethro is a big, handsome, and patient guy. Having grown up with kids and other dogs of various sizes, he was well socialized with littles. The easy-going dog in the group, Jethro is not phased by much when around littles - whether furry or human. Although he was exposed to cats, Jethro has been a little too interested in them and will not be placed in a home with cats. With many of his GSD traits well established, Jethro is loyal, intelligent, and your typical velcro dog. As is typical of many GSDs, it can take Jethro a few minutes to warm up to new people; he can come across as aloof or disinterested. However, once comfortable, Jethro enjoys a good rub down and lean in. When a connection is made, it is strong.
Having lived in a safe and loving home, Jethro understands the ins and outs of living in a household. He is housebroken and cues nicely when he needs to go out. He is also crate trained and is content in his safe space. As is expected, Jethro is a little thrown by his new circumstances and is taking some time to decompress and adjust. Our volunteers have been working hard to ensure that Jethro has everything he needs. As Jethro moves forward, he is looking for a forever family that will provide him with daily exercise, snuggles, and a soft bed. Plenty of treats would also be just fine. If your family is looking for a gentle boy that will fill your home with unending love, look no further than our sweet Jethro.
