Adopted MAGSR Dogs

Ty and his buddy, Wolfgang, were picked up as strays and brought into another rescue. Although shelters were contacted, fliers were posted, and contacts with several organizations were made, no one claimed the boys. Without a family of their own, the rescue started looking for a breed specific rescue for the boys so that they would have their best chance moving forward. When we learned that Ty and Wolfgang needed a little help to move forward, MAGSR was honored to step in and help. 

Ty is a charismatic and affectionate guy. As a young boy, he is active, inquisitive, and energetic. He is looking for a forever family who will commit to exercising both his mind and his mind on a daily basis. Having spent a lot of time outside prior to his arrival with a rescue, Ty is thrilled to bounce around outside and play with his furry friends. Naturally gentle and disarming with other dogs, Ty plays well with dogs of all ages and sizes. While living in a foster home, Ty continuously impressed his foster mom with his ability to adapt his play style to the level of the dogs he was interacting with. Based upon his initial responses to living in a household, it appeared that Ty had not spent much, if any time, in a home prior to his arrival in his foster home. However, he has quickly learned the joys of a soft bed, safe home, and regular meals. Although he is quickly learning the ins and outs of living in a household, Ty will need time to adjust to his forever home. He will thrive with clear structure, routines, and leadership. As Ty is in many ways still a pup, he will benefit greatly from training. Not only will this help him build a healthy relationship with his forever family, but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen. Motivated to please his people, Ty can't wait to find his forever family. Could that be with you?

Stunning Luna was picked up as a stray in the south. Although she waited patiently for her family to come and claim her, no one stepped forward. As a timid girl at an overcrowded shelter, little Luna found herself on the euthanasia list without many options. Fortunately, the rescue community came together to try to help this girl. With some help from a few different people, Luna made her way to the MAGSR family. We are beyond glad we were able to help Luna move forward.

Luna is a sweet and inquisitive girl. Having been bounced around a bit, she can be a little timid in new situations but given a chance to adjust, she does well. As a pup, it is essential that Luna's family continue to socialize her with other people and animals in controlled settings. Luna has been around kids 8 and older and has done very well. She seems to enjoy their company but will still display puppy behaviors so she will need to be monitored. Luna has also met other dogs and a cat. She prefers other dogs that let her get comfortable first but does socialize well. Luna was more intimidated by the cat but was still curious. As is true of all GSDs, Luna will thrive in a household that provides structure, routine, and leadership. Training will go a long way as it will help Luna develop into a stable and confident adult dog.

Although Luna is absolutely adorable, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. Puppies will whine, chew, and fill your home with endless antics. With time, patience, training, and socialization, Luna will develop into the good canine citizen she is destined to be. If this beautiful girl sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today. 

Miss Jackie and her housemate, Mr. Jack, were used for puppies. Their lives have been filled with little care, comfort, or kindness. When their owner decided that it was time for them to move on, their future options were very limited. Fortunately, another rescue heard about their situation and reached out to MAGSR for help. 

Although we knew that both would need some additional love and attention, we also knew they deserved kindness and compassion. Miss Jackie is friendly, interactive, and goofy with her people. She seeks out attention from everyone around and is a bit of a social butterfly. Although Miss Jackie is wonderful with her people, she is not a huge fan of other furry creatures. With a high prey drive, Jackie likely needed this to survive the first 5 years of her life. As a result, she is looking for a home where she can be the sole focus of the family. Miss Jackie has done very well in her previous foster home. She is crate trained and house broken. However, once properly adjusted, she is able to move about freely in the house without causing issues when alone. Having lived in a household, Miss Jackie does understand the rules of living in a home; however, she will need to adjust to the general routine and structure of her forever home. An intelligent girl, Jackie has had some training and knows many of her basic commands. Further training is always positive as this will help Jackie exercise her mind as well as develop a healthy bond with her forever family. 

Miss Jackie is a lovely lady who is looking for a forever family that will provide her with the leadership, safety, and love that she so clearly deserves. Could this be with you?

Hank and his buddy, Lana, lived in a home. However, the family often allowed the dogs to roam which angered people within the community. Unable to properly contain both dogs on the property, their family surrendered them to a shelter in the south. Unfortunately, all shelters are overwhelmed at this time which has been forcing staff to make very difficult decisions in regards to who survives. Owner surrenders are typically the first dogs to be euthanized. Knowing that both dogs would likely not survive, several groups began working together to try and find a rescue with the resources to help. Fortunately, a shelter partner reached out to MAGSR in the nick of time. We were pleased to have a place to welcome this pair and provide them with a safe option for moving forward.

Handsome Hank is a sweet, good looking guy. As an attentive and personable boy, he easily catches the attention of everyone around him. Nose driven, this boy doesn't tend to miss a beat in the world around him. Although Hank has lived in a home, we do not know much about his life prior to his arrival in the MAGSR family. It is clear that Hank is a smart guy and picks up new skills quickly particularly, if there are treats involved. Hank is looking for a forever family that will care for him for a lifetime. As is true of all shepherds, he will thrive in a household with clear structure, routine, and leadership. Although he is already learning a few basic commands, Hank will benefit greatly from training. Training is essential as it will not only help Hank develop a strong, healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen. 

Unfortunately, we have learned that Hank is heartworm positive. This prognosis could have been avoided if Hank's family had kept him on preventatives. Although treatment is expensive, this social guy is beyond worth the cost. Hank's entire heartworm treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Donations toward his care are greatly appreciated as this will help us not only help this handsome guy but they will also help us continue to support medical dogs in need. Hank will need to take it easy over the next couple months while he completes his treatment. However, this will help him develop a healthy bond with his forever family. If Hank sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today.

Rosa Lea, Ruby Ann, and Benny Blu were dumped in a field in the south. Although this was witnessed, their owner could not be found. Alone and scared, the pups ran when rescuers came to get them. Knowing that these little ones would need help, rescuers waited them out and caught all three a few days later. Although they had a safe place to stay while waiting to be claimed, when no one came forward, we were asked to welcome these babies into the MAGSR family. Our team was thrilled to welcome all three to the rescue. 

Ruby Ann is an easy-going, stable, and loving little girl. She enjoys the company of people of all ages. Clearly well socialized with other animals, Ruby Ann enjoys the company of her furry friends. She can't help but share her love with all of them and is often busy giving out kisses on playdates. A good listener and very attentive, Ruby Ann will be an absolute joy to train. Training is essential as it will help this sweet girl develop into a confident and well-adjusted adult dog. Although Ruby Ann is an absolute lovebug, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. Puppies will whine, chew, and fill your home with endless antics. With time, patience, training, and socialization, Ruby Ann will develop into the good canine she is destined to be. If this delightful little girl sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today.

Lovely Lana is an intelligent and interactive girl. As a young dog, she has a lot of good energy and is looking for an active household. Lana's forever family will not only need to make sure that they exercise her body on a daily basis but they will also need to exercise her mind.

Ozzy and his buddy, Saxom, were victims of a house fire. When their family lost their home, they realized that they could no longer provide their dogs with the care that they deserved. As a result, they surrendered the dogs to a shelter. Upon arrival, it was evident that Ozzy and Saxom lacked socialization. They had lived with a pack of dogs; however, it seems that they had limited exposure to new situations and new people. Shelter staff immediately began working with the boys to build trust and move them forward. However, they recognized that Ozzy and Saxom would likely not thrive in a shelter setting. As a result, they sent out a plea for rescue placement. When we learned about the boys, we put plans together to welcome both Ozzy and Saxom into the MAGSR family. 

Ozzy is a timid yet affectionate guy. A little unsure with new people and new situations, Ozzy is looking for a patient household that will give him plenty of opportunities to socialize in a safe way with new people and new environments. Once given time to adjust, Ozzy is playful, affectionate, and a big leaner. He understands the joy of toys and particularly enjoys toys that squeak. Curious and affectionate, Ozzy is settling in with his foster family. As he moves forward, Ozzy will meet with success in a household that provides him with clear structure and routine. He thrives on leadership and confidence. Training is essential for Ozzy. Not only will it help him build a healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen. Ozzy is looking for a patient forever family that has the time and energy to continue to move him forward. If this handsome guy sounds like the right match for you, ask to meet him today!

Lovely Crimson was a stray who fortunately got picked up by a good samaritan and brought to a shelter. Once there, she waited patiently for a family of her very own. Unfortunately, no one came for Crimson. When contacted by another rescue to bring Crimson in, MAGSR stepped up. 

Crimson is a beautiful and intelligent girl. She gains confidence from a calm and stable handler. Crimson, like all dogs, will benefit greatly from training as it will help her develop into a good canine citizen. At the same time training will also help Crimson bond to her new family. As Crimson is new to the rescue, we are still getting to know her. Please stay tuned for more updates.

Sweet Sasha was surrendered to MAGSR when her family could no longer care for her. It was highly evident that her mom loved her beyond measure, but she knew that Sasha would have her best chance if she joined the MAGSR family. So, the decision was made to say goodbye. We promised Sasha's family that we would find her a safe and loving family that would fill her days with joy and happiness.

Sasha is a delightful girl. She enjoys the company of her people and easily wins over adoring fans with her lovely personality. Although a little shaken by the sudden change in her world, Sasha has done well with our volunteers and brings many smiles to the people around her. Already crate trained and housebroken, Sasha has already learned many of the rules and expectations of a household. However, as is true of any new dog, she will need some time to adjust to her forever family. Sasha is looking for a family that enjoys daily walks, yummy treats, and plenty of cuddles. She is also hoping that her family will take her to training. Not only will training help Sasha create a strong and healthy bond with her forever family, but it will also help her develop into a good canine citizen. Sasha is ready for her forever family. Could that be with you?

Lovely Layla was picked up as a stray and brought to a local shelter. She waited patiently for a family to come and claim her; however, no one stepped forward for this amazing girl. As shelters everywhere are at capacity, staff members began reaching out to rescues for help as they knew that Layla was very special and deserved every chance to find a forever family that would love her for a lifetime. When MAGSR heard the plea for Layla, our team immediately began making preparations to welcome her to the rescue.

Layla is a sweet and affectionate girl. With a goofy personality, it is impossible to avoid smiling when in her presence. She simply spreads joy wherever she goes. Clearly well-socialized, Layla enjoys the company of both human and furry companions. As she arrived at the shelter as a stray, we do not know much about her history or her knowledge of living in a home. However, we do know that someone clearly cared for her at some point and taught her the joy of playtime, snuggles, and some extra pets. Layla is looking for a household that will provide her with the structure, routine, stability, and leadership that all shepherds crave. She is looking forward to participating in training with her forever family. Training is an excellent way to build a strong and healthy bond as well as help Layla develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen.

Lovely little Cobbler is one of Sugar Pie's puppies. Having been born into the rescue, we have had the unique opportunity to watch her grow. Adopted as a puppy, Cobbler's family adored her. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, they could no longer provide for her. Recognizing that Cobbler deserved a safe and loving forever family, they contacted MAGSR to make sure that Cobbler could move forward safely. We immediately welcomed this lovely little girl back into the MAGSR family at 9 months old and promised that we would find her the perfect forever home.

As a young, affectionate, and energetic girl, Cobbler is looking for an active family that will exercise both her body and her mind on a daily basis. She will happily come along for a long walk, run, or hike filling each adventure with puppy smiles and love.

Joyful Cooper has been moved about a few times in his young life. However, he was lucky that the right people stepped in and recognized that a young, social guy like him would thrive in a household that had the time and energy to work with him. So, they brought Cooper to a local shelter where staff members fell in love with this interactive guy. Although Cooper easily won over the hearts of the shelter team, they recognized that he would be most successful if he found placement through a rescue. When we heard about Cooper's need for placement, we immediately welcomed him to the MAGSR family. 

Cooper is an interactive and social boy. He clearly has had the opportunity to interact with others throughout his puppyhood. Although Cooper definitely has a great start, continued socialization is imperative to his success as an adult. Typical of most young GSDs, Cooper has a lot of energy. It will be essential that Cooper's family exercise his body and his mind on a daily basis. This will help him maintain a stable and confident mindset. Although Cooper is still very young, he has already begun to learn some basic commands. His intelligence, willingness to please, and his food motivation makes him a great student. Cooper will excel in training class.

Alpha and Beta appeared outside the home of an experienced GSD family. Recognizing the boys needed a safe place to stay while their family was located, this family brought the boys in and began making calls to local vets, shelters, and lost dog groups. Although word quickly spread that Alpha and Beta had been found and were safe, no one came to bring the boys home. When their stray hold ended, this family began working with local rescues to move the boys forward so that they could be safely placed in a loving forever home. As a member of the rescue network contacted to support Alpha and Beta, MAGSR was happy to step forward and help the boys move into the rescue family.

Beta is in many ways your typical young, energetic, and inquisitive guy. However, it appears that Beta lacks experience with new people and experiences, as a result, he can be timid and a little jumpy at first. When given time to adjust, Beta is affectionate and playful. He enjoys giving hugs and kisses, but he will need to learn that this is not always appropriate. As is true of all young dogs, Beta will be most successful if placed in a home with clear structure, routine, and leadership. Continued socialization is essential as Beta will need to learn how to navigate new environments and new people confidently. Training will help Beta as he continues to develop the stability and confidence needed to become a good canine citizen. If you are looking for a sweet, deserving guy, who will keep you entertained with teenage antics, ask to meet Beta today!

Erica rides well in the car but is still learning the best way to get up into larger vehicles. We are still getting to know this big, beautiful girl and will post updates soon. If Erica sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet her today. 

Sweet Angus was picked up as a stray and brought to animal control. Upon arrival it was clear that Angus had some medical needs that would require quick attention. Missing hair over a large portion of his body with open sores, it was obvious to shelter staff that Angus had likely been in some pain for a while. Although staff waited for Angus' family to claim him, no one stepped forward. Recognizing that Angus would be most successful if placed within a rescue, staff members reached out to MAGSR for help. We immediately welcomed Angus to the MAGSR family. 

Although Angus is in rough shape, he has the sweetest soul. A lover of everyone and everything, Angus enjoys spending time with kids, adults, and other dogs. He is even good with cats. Unfortunately, we do not know much about his past; however, it is clear that someone helped him develop into a social guy. His lovely personality shines through even with all the pain he must be in.

The Hunger Games puppies - Peeta, Katniss, Thresh, Rue, Gale, and Finnick - were an accidental litter in the south. Although they were well-cared for as babies, as they grew, they became too much for their family. Recognizing that they were unable to provide a large number of babies with what they needed, their family surrendered them to a shelter. Unfortunately, with the overwhelming number of dogs needing placements in shelters right now, owner surrenders are the first dogs to be euthanized. The minute these babies entered the building they were in danger. Trying to do everything they could to keep this group alive, shelter staff began pleading for rescue help. When we heard about their plight, our team knew we needed to welcome the Hunger Games family to MAGSR. 

Peeta is a confident and intelligent guy. As an active young pup, Peeta is looking for a family that can give him the time, attention, and training that will help him meet with success.

Adorable Albus is one of 11 puppies and a mama that were part of a cruelty case within Maryland. Upon arrival, this sweet litter of pups quickly won over all the staff within the shelter; however,  they knew this family needed to move into the safety of a rescue immediately so they could move forward and find loving forever families.  When asked if we could help this litter of 11 babies and mama, team MAGSR stepped up and welcomed the Hogwarts family to the rescue. 

Albus is a playful and active guy. He enjoys the company of other animals. Like his brothers and sisters, he is working on socialization and house manners. Fortunately, our Hogwarts puppies have a good start already as they are sweet and friendly pups who happily soak up all of the love and attention they can find. Living with amazing foster families, each of the Hogwarts puppies is starting to learn all of the important things they will need to know in order to develop into stable and confident adult dogs. Although puppies bring endless joy to everyone they encounter, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. Puppies will whine, chew, have accidents and fill your home with endless puppy antics.

Sweet Mona Mi was picked up as a stray in a busy city and brought to the local animal shelter. Upon entering the shelter, it was clear that this little girl was in need of significant medical support. Emaciated, missing a significant amount of her fur, covered in scabs, and clearly in pain, Mona Mi needed help and quickly. Although shelter staff began putting care in place, they knew Mona Mi needed to be transferred to a rescue who could get this little girl the care she needed with a private vet. When asked if we could help Mona Mi move forward, we immediately welcomed her into the MAGSR family. 

Having joined the MAGSR family, Mona Mi was moved to one of our vets in order to help her begin the healing process. It was determined that she had contracted demodex mange which had developed into a secondary skin infection. With a good exam, antibiotics, medicated baths, and fantastic vetting care, Mona Mi has made significant strides. She is feeling much more like a pup and ready to learn about the world. Although a little hesitant at first, when given a little time to adjust to new people and situations, Mona Mi is a ball of fun. She is full of life and ready to move forward. As is true of all young shepherds, Mona Mi craves structure, routine, and leadership. She has a lot to learn but is eager to start. It is critical that Mona Mi's forever family get her into training. Training is important as it will not only help her develop a strong, healthy bond with her family, but it will also help her develop into a stable and confident adult. Mona Mi is ready for her forever family. Could that be you?
