Adopted MAGSR Dogs

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. 

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.  

Windsor came to us from shelter where ended up as a stray.  He is now in our care, looking for a better life and family who will care for him for his lifetime.  We do not have any history for him, we are getting to know him.   He has been friendly with those he has met and evaluated well with other dogs.  Windsor is ready to put his past behind him and looks forward to a fresh start in a new home.

Aria and her sister Allie came to us from a shelter where they had been surrendered.  We are told that mom is a purebred GSD and dad is purebred Lab.  At 16 weeks old both girls have a whole lot to learn.  It is never too soon to start basic obedience training, as socialization with other dogs and people is very important, along with learning good puppy manners.  Puppies will chew things, have accidents, get into things and have lots of energy, so please be sure you have the time and patience it takes to raise a puppy.

Sadly Daina's family turned her into a shelter as she was experiencing digestive issues and weight loss.  Such a friendly, loving and sweet girl, she did not deserve to be abandoned especially in her time of need.   Now that Daina is with us she is receiving the care she needs and deserves.  She has been seen by our vet and is undergoing testing to determine why she is so emaciated.  She is receiving high quality nutrition and supplements and extra meals.  Daina deserves to know the love of a real family, one that will care for her no matter what.  Please consider Daina when looking for  your next BFF.

Samson came to us as an owner surrender.  Unfortunately his former family have their hands very full with medical needs, this left Samson home alone for too long.  He was very much loved and well cared for.  He is now looking for a new family, one that will love and care for him as much as his last family has.  Samson is a stunning, all white male GSD.  In his previous home he lived with young children and another male GSD.  Samson is a very smart boy, he can open doors using his mouth to turn the knobs, he can open a gate latch and knows how to get out of a wire crate.   He does need some basic obedience training, not only will this help him learn good manners, but it will also help to create a bond with his new family.  He enjoys spending as much as time as possible with his family.

Onyx was adopted from us as 9 month old puppy.  She had lived with her adoptive family for just over 4 years.  Onyx had a run in with the neighbors small dogs so her adopters decided to return her.  Knowing that Onyx would be housed at the kennel, as we have no available foster homes without dogs, they still decided that was the best place for her.  I can't imagine that Onyx thinks being a kennel away from her family is the best place for her.  At this time we do not know if Onyx is good with larger dogs as she has just been returned to us.  We are giving her time to adjust to losing her family and her home, once we feel she has settled in we will do proper dog introductions.  Onyx is very sweet with people, although a little cautious at first meeting them.  She lived with children in her prior home.  Onyx doesn't deserve what her family did to her, with proper containment, making sure she is not able to escape open doors and with training things could have been worked out. 

Solomon came to us as an owner surrender.  Unfortunately his former family have their hands very full with medical needs, this left Solomon home alone for too long.  He was very much loved and well cared for.  He is now looking for a new family, one that will love and care for him as much as his last family has.  Solomon is a stunning, large, all black male with the shiniest coat.  In his previous home he lived with young children and another male GSD.  He does need some basic obedience training, not only will this help him learn good manners, but it will also help to create a bond with his new family.

Allie and her sister Aria came to us from a shelter where they had been surrendered.  We are told that mom is a purebred GSD and dad is purebred Lab.  At 16 weeks old both girls have a whole lot to learn.  It is never too soon to start basic obedience training, as socialization with other dogs and people is very important, along with learning good puppy manners.  Puppies will chew things, have accidents, get into things and have lots of energy, so please be sure you have the time and patience it takes to raise a puppy.

Sapphire made her way to us from a shelter where she had been surrendered by her former owners.  They had told the shelter that she was good with children, dogs and cats.  She is in a foster living with young children and another GSD and getting along well.  We have not had her around cats.  She is a young, energetic girl that has had no training or guidance.  She's very trainable, she pays attention to her handler and is responsive to both food and praise.   A good training program, guidance from her family and exercise to burn off some that puppy energy are in order for beautiful Sapphire.

Missy was found tied to a tree, no one ever came for her.  The person that found her took very good care of her and was hoping to make her part of their family.  Unfortunately Missy and the resident small dog were not compatible.  Wanting Missy to have the best chance at finding a good family she was surrendered to us.  She is young, energetic and has a lot to learn.  Training of course will help Missy learn what is expected of her, good canine manners and build a bond with her new family. 

Kadian came to us a surrender, as her former person was not in the position to care for or keep her.  At 14 weeks old she has a whole lot to learn.  It is never too soon to start basic obedience training, as socialization with other dogs and people is very important, along with learning good puppy manners.  Puppies will chew things, have accidents, get into things and have lots of energy, so please be sure you have the time and patience it takes to raise a puppy.  Adopting a puppy is a commitment for their lifetime.

Mally was surrendered to us as her elderly caregivers were moving and could not keep her.  She has not had any training or guidance, nor has she been exposed to the world around her.  She will need a family who will commit to training to help her build her confidence and of course to learn good canine manners.  It is important that Mally has ongoing socialization and is introduced to the sounds, sights and smells of the world.  It is her families job to guide her, work with her daily, provide lots of playtime, exercise, love and care. 

Merlin was surrendered as he kept escaping the yard with a 4 foot fence, suggested ways of keeping him contained were not implemented.  He had been with his family for 5 years and deserved more than to be given away.  As Merlin is new to us we are just getting to know him.  He lived with another dog in his prior home.  Right now he is confused and somewhat anxious with the changes in his life.  He does require training to help him with good canine manners and to learn what is expected of him.  Training is a great way to start the bonding process with a new family. 

Mocha was adopted through our rescue when she was just 16 weeks old.  She has lived with her adopters for the last 6 years.  After 6 years they decided to return her because they could not contain her in their yard with a 4 foot fence. Instead of correcting the problem or supervising her while she was out she was returned, leaving the only family she has known.  Mocha deserved better than this, along with a lifetime commitment.  She is such a well behaved sweet girl, she gets along well with other dogs.  Mocha is now looking for a family who will commit to her for her lifetime.

Nikia was found as a stray and ended up in a shelter.  She is a beautiful, well behaved older girl, past the antics of a younger dog.  She would be happy hanging with her family, going for strolls and being loved.

Brixx found himself in a shelter as a stray so we have no history on him.  He is somewhat shy at first, but he is friendly.  He is good with other dogs.  Brixx would love a family of his own who will commit to him for his lifetime.

Ralph came to rescue when he was a 6 month old puppy, all cuddly and cute.  Of course being a puppy lots of people were interested in adopting him.  His family adopted in 2016 and sadly returned him as  he is no longer the cute puppy they adopted.  Yes, we see this far too much, people getting puppies but once they are grown adults the puppy cuteness has worn off and they are surrendering the dogs through no fault of the dog.  While Ralph is no longer a puppy, he is a still a very handsome and loving young boy.  Ralph lived in a home with a toddler and did well.  He has had no obedience training, so his leash walking skills need improvement.  He enjoys being near people receiving attention.  He's a sweet boy that just needs some structure and training to make him the perfect little love-bug!    Ralph is looking for a family who will commit to him for his lifetime.

Wiley was found in a trash bag on the side of the road when he was approximately 8 weeks old.  Since then he has been passed around from person to person and not always having the best of care.  Thankfully the last person who he was given to reached out to us so that Wiley would have the best chance at finding a loving and caring family.  Wiley had a vet visit today for his vaccines and check up, he received a clean bill of health, just needs to gain some weight.  He is now in a loving foster home enjoying the comforts of a home, toys, treats and good nutrition.  

Boyka was surrendered to us as his former person was very busy with his graduate studies.  He knew that Boyka needed more time and attention then he could give him.  Boyka is very well behaved for a 7 month old puppy, he is housebroken and crate trained.  He will whine and bark when first going into his crate but will settle.  He absolutely loves the company of other dogs, both males and females, he wants to be near them all of the time.  He is currently in a foster home with another GSD and Boxer, both are seniors and he does so well with them.  He does have a lot of puppy energy, he enjoys going for walks, playing and running in the yard and a good game of keep away is a lot of fun.  He does not have perfect leash manners, but they aren't bad for a dog of his age.  He is a sponge and soaking up everything his foster mom is teaching him.  He has met children of varying ages and did well, but he does not take treats gently and his energy level may be too much for little ones.   Boyka is very ready for a good training program and a new forever family.
