DESCRIPTION:

Handsome Murphy was found hanging out at a high school with his buddy Millie. Both dogs were brought to a shelter where they waited for a family to claim them. When no one came forward, the shelter staff started pleading for rescue support as they were at capacity. Who could say no to such sweet dogs?

Murphy is a playful and energetic guy. He is friendly and good with both people and other dogs. However, he can be vocal with new dogs when first meeting them. As a young guy, Murphy has energy to burn and will do best in a home that can exercise his mind and his body on a daily basis. Arriving as a stray, we do not know what Murphy knows about living in a household. However, he seems to be a quick learner who wants to please his handler. As is true of all dogs, Murphy will thrive when provided with guidance, leadership, and consistency. Training will help him adjust to his new family as well as develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. Murphy is looking for a forever family that will love and care for him for a lifetime. Could that be with you?

DESCRIPTION:

Titan's family adored him. He brought endless love and joy to their family. However, due to circumstances beyond their control, they could no longer continue to care for him. Although this was a devastating decision, Titan's family knew he deserved every opportunity to find a new family who would love and care for him throughout his golden years. We promised them that we would make sure that Titan found the perfect home. 

Titan is a happy, friendly, and joyful guy. A big fan of cuddles and the lean in, Titan regularly seeks out affection from his people. Open to a variety of entertainment options, Titan loves balls, toys, and bones. Although Titan does enjoy his playtime, he is also very good at being a couch potato. He has just the right amount of energy for family life. As a mature fellow, Titan understands the rules of the household. He is housebroken and crate trained. His days of puppy behaviors are behind him. A great companion, Titan keeps an eye on his people and always wants to be part of the fun. 

As can happen with age, Titan does have some special needs. Titan has been diagnosed with chronic progressive cerebellar disease. This condition causes him to have some stability issues and some exaggerated movements. Although he lacks the smooth movements of a younger dog, Titan's condition does not impact his ability to love and be loved. Titan is looking for a household where he can avoid stairs as he is unable to navigate staircases safely. He will also need a home that has carpeted floors or mats to help him more effectively cross surfaces within the household. Titan is an incredibly special guy. If your household is looking for a sweet, affectionate, mature guy, ask to meet Titan today. 

Updates:

Sweet Titan has adjusted well in his foster home. He enjoys a daily routine that includes a few walks, playtime, opportunities to check on everyone in the family, and of course unending snuggles. Titan loves to be outside with his people. Everyone and everything he sees is exciting. Between regular interactions with neighbors, the brief glimpses of local wildlife, and boundless opportunities for sniffing, his outside time is full of positivity. Although clearly happy outside, Titan exudes joy all day long. When inside, Titan has perfect household manners. He keeps an eye on his people at all times and likes to be in close proximity to them. Although Titan does enjoy some playtime with his ball each day, he is happy to hang out and snuggle too. Titan is looking for a forever home that will love him throughout his golden years. Could that be with you?

Handsome little Ben was surrendered to a local shelter. This little ball of love immediately won over everyone on staff. Although they fell head over heels for this boy, it was recognized that Ben would be most successful finding a safe and loving forever family if he was placed in a rescue. When asked if we could help Ben move forward, team MAGSR stepped up. Ben is an adorable pup. It is very evident that he has had a good foundation and is well socialized. Friendly with everyone, Ben happily soaks up all of the love and attention he can find. Living with an amazing foster family, Ben is starting to learn all of the important things he will need to know in order to develop into a stable and confident adult dog. Although Ben brings endless joy to everyone he encounters, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. Puppies will whine, chew, have accidents and fill your home with endless puppy antics. With time, patience, structure, and routine, Ben will develop into an incredible dog. If this little love sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today!

ADOPTED 06/09/2022!

Beau

Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 7 years 1 month
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 90 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 90 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Working on it
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: No
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Handsome Beau is an incredibly sweet guy. His family had some changes over the last year that resulted in a move from the family's farm to a suburban townhouse life. Unfortunately, Beau was not adjusting well to these changes. Recognizing that Beau would be happier in a different environment with a family with the ability to spend more time with him, his family made the difficult decision to surrender him to MAGSR. We promised that we would find Beau an amazing forever home where he would have every opportunity to enjoy himself.

Beau is one amazing guy. He has clearly been well socialized with people. He is beyond friendly with everyone he meets, but we are still learning how he interacts with other dogs. Beau loves ear rubs, frisbee, car rides and has been the perfect patient at the vet. It is very apparent that he has a special personality. 

As is true of all shepherds, Beau needs a forever family that can provide him with the time, structure, and training needed to meet with success. Training is key as it will not only help Beau create a healthy bond with his new family, but it will also help him develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. MAGSR has already begun working with Beau to build his basic training. However, it will be critical that his forever family continue this process. 

Additionally, Beau has some medical needs that we are in the process of addressing. He arrived with a large lump on his back leg that had broken open and was severely infected. He was taken to the vet and the lump was biopsied. At this time the results are pending. The lump will likely need surgical removal. However, while we await results, we are keeping Beau safe and comfortable with a loving foster family. It seems that Beau realizes that we are trying to help and has been patient with all procedures. 

If Beau sounds like the perfect addition to your family please submit an app today!

DESCRIPTION:

Lovely little Paisley was picked up as a stray and brought to a local shelter. Although she waited patiently for her family to claim her, no one arrived to bring her home. Recognizing that this little lady would be best placed if in a rescue, shelter staff reached out for help. When we heard that Paisley was looking for rescue, our team immediately began putting things in place to welcome her to MAGSR. 

Happy-go-lucky Paisley is a social and interactive girl. She has clearly been well socialized with people and thinks that everyone should take a chance to say hi. Although she loves her people, as is true of all puppies, Paisley will need to learn manners. Not only is Paisley social with people, she is also social with other animals. She is the life of the party and happy to bring joy wherever she goes. Typical of any GSD, Paisley will definitely need play time but she will also need structure, routine, and leadership. This will help her develop the mindset needed to become a confident and stable adult GSD. Although Miss Paisley is cute as a button, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, bark, chew on inappropriate things, and have accidents. With time, patience, routine, and regular exercise, Paisley will become the good canine citizen we know she is destined to be. If this little love bug sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today!
