Adopted MAGSR Dogs

Swemi was surrendered to us as her person was moving to care for their elderly parents.  She lived with children and another large dog.  Swemi is in a foster home getting use to her new surroundings.  She is confused right now and looking for her family, but with time she will move forward.
Swemi walks nicely on a leash.

Kimbra was found as a stray along with Admiral.  We are not sure if they lived together but they seem very close and enjoy each other's company.  From what we know of her so far, she seems sweet with a friendly disposition, she is good with other dogs.  Of course she will need to attend training classes so that she can be the best she can be, training also helps with creating a strong bond with her new family.

This handsome boy is done with being a wanderer,  he is ready to settle into a home with a new family.  He is pretty chill, a quiet passenger in the car and super friendly.  Yes, he needs to learn some leash manners along with other good canine manners, but that will come with training which is required.  Ask to meet handsome Tago.

Sweet Otto made his way to us from a family that cared for him after he was dumped on their property.  We have no information about his past.  He is a very nice boy but very scared at this time.  Obviously all of the changes have him unsettled.  He is now in a caring foster home being provided with comfort and time to decompress.  Once Otto has settled in we will post updates. 

Otto's foster reports that being in a home seems new to him.  He is frightened by the stairs and going through doorways.  He has no idea what to do with toys.  He has come out of his shell with one of the resident dogs, they enjoy romping around and playing.  His foster dad is working with him daily to help him become more confident.

Otto is continuing to make progress; he has mastered stairs and is getting calmer going through doorways.  He gets along well with the four large  GSDs in his foster home.  When Otto first arrived in his foster home, he would constantly hide in the back of his crate and had to be urged out for any activities. Otto has become much more confident over the last two weeks; he is comfortable wandering the house, taking walks around the property and prefers to nap in the corner of the living room rather than in his crate.  Over the last couple of days he started to play with chew toys and is taking tentative first steps playing fetch.  Although shy with new people, he is very affectionate and attentive with his foster.  

Celia found herself in a shelter after found wandering on her own. Her age is estimated at a year old but she could be younger. She is friendly and happy along with being beautiful. While at the shelter she kept her kennel area so she may be housebroken. Life on the run is no way to live, Celia wants the love and care of a family, a comfy bed, toys, exercise, good food and training.

Arrow was found on a road with his leg severely broken, dragging it.  He was rushed to the emergency vet but unfortunately there was nothing that could be done to save his leg.  His leg was amputated 10/15/2017.  He is doing very well as a tri-paw, he gets around, can climb up and go for walks.  He is such a sweet and loving boy, he smoothers everyone he meets in kisses.  He is resting comfortably in a foster home recovering from his surgery.  As the trip was long to get Arrow to us, we were very blessed to have a pilot and his wife with Pilots and Paws fly round trip to pick him up to get him to us.  He did so well on his very first flight and greeted everyone with tail wags and kisses.  Once his sutures are removed Arrow will be free to live life like any 4 legged dog.  Tri-paws adapt very quickly and do not let a missing leg hold them back.  Ask to meet this special boy, we are sure he will amaze you and steal your heart.

April's life is forever changed, thanks to those who saved her from horrid and unsafe living conditions.  It is amazing that with all that April has endured she is so incredibly sweet and wants to be loved and properly cared for.  April deserves a family who will provide a wonderful life for her, one full of love and a commitment for her lifetime.  

Gatlin, puppy to a female GSD and male Great Pyrenees, was dumped at a shelter.  Gatlin cannot be any cuter and is absolutely a great little boy, happy go lucky and loves to give puppy kisses.  Gatlin has a lot to learn about going a good canine citizen and will require training.  Please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family - puppies are a 10-12 year commitment.  Puppies are full of energy and can be mischievous – they will whine, have accidents, get into things, and chew on inappropriate things.  With time, patience, guidance and training, Gatlin will become even more of an amazing boy than he already is.  If interested and he sounds like a good match for your family, please submit an adoption application for Gatlin!

Sherman came to us from a local shelter where he was surrendered. We are told that in his previous home, he was protective of his property and wary of strangers. When MAGSR took him in, he was a little detached and aloof. However, he's starting to come out of his shell and his personality is starting to shine. When he is with his favorite people, he is very laid back and pretty obedient. He really wants to please those he is closest to. He is starting to bond with his favorite handler and has been known to give kisses loves to shake/give paw for treats. He loves to go for rides in a vehicle and rides very quietly. He also likes riding on the motorized golf cart type vehicle which is used at the kennel. You can see him in attached photos lying on the front seat and in the rear cargo area. We also discovered he likes swimming with his handler which has allowed him to open up and bond as well as get some exercise. Just today, he was introduced to a very passive, calm female shepherd and he did very well with her. So as you can see, we have been introducing him to a lot of fun, new things and he is handling all of it well. He will need a confident, experienced handler as he is a big intimidating boy who needs to know that his human(s) have got the situation under control. We are extremely happy to see his progress and will update as we learn more about him.

Sam is a very handsome 8 year old male GSD.  He has not been well cared for up until now, he is underweight and entered the shelter covered in fleas.  Life has changed for the better, he is now receiving good nutrition, he has been treated for the flea infestation and he is much loved by our rescue.  Now all that Sam needs is a family who will love him and provide proper care for his lifetime.  Please consider Sam for your family, he deserves a new start at a better life.

Admiral was found as a stray along with Kimbra. We are not sure if they lived together but they seem very close and enjoy each other's company. From what we know of her so far, he has a friendly disposition, and he is good with other dogs. He is a big boy and can be head strong. Of course he will need to attend training classes so that he can be the best he can be, training also helps with creating a strong bond with his new family.

Rigger is a mature boy at 5 years old, he is finished with the puppy antics, chewing etc.. He still has energy and enjoys walks and exercise. He does well with other dogs. He can be aloof which is often time a characteristic of GSD's. Training will go along way in helping him bond with his new family, along with learning more about each other.

Jailyn ended up in a shelter due to her family separating.  She lived with a young child in her previous home.  Jailyn has a lot of energy and would make a great running partner, this will also help burn some of her energy.  Long walks, playtime and training will also do her good.

Harley was surrendered to us after almost being hit by a motorcycle.  She is extremely skittish and a high flight risk at this time.  She loves children and other dogs but adults are very scary to her and she keeps her distance from them.  She is in the care of a very experienced foster family who are working with her daily and keeping her very safe from being able to flee.  It will take some time for her to learn to trust adults but her fosters are up to the challenge.  Harley will require an experienced person who will take the time and have the patience to continue to work with her.  She will also do best in a home with another confident dog that she can learn from.  Even though she adores children it is best that she not be in a home where children are coming and going as she can escape an open door.  Harley is not a dog that can be outside off leash at this time, this may come with time.

Baileys person moved and could not afford the airfare to fly him to Hawaii. He was left with her family but sadly they did not take very good care of him. His person reached out to us as she wanted him away from the bad life his was living.

Bailey arrived in our care under weight, full of fleas, long nails and with no vaccines. He is having everything done at our vets and will be going into a foster home. As you can see by his face he has a worried look which is understandable. He was nervous at the vets office wanting to get away but when he realized he couldn't he laid down and hid his face. We have promised him his future will be much better, being loved and cared for. He is a gentle soul.

Axel came to us as an owner surrender as his persons new job has her traveling frequently for work. Knowing that Axel deserved more than she could provide she put him in our care to find him a wonderful new home. Axel has lots of energy that needs to be addressed with daily exercise. Training is on the top of his list as he wants to learn good canine manners. He is young and eager to learn.

Star came to from a shelter so we have no history for her.  In our care she has been friendly and well mannered.  Of course she will need training, guidance and structure from her new family, along with time to settle in to a new home.

Diesel, along with Supra, are a bonded pair. They love and enjoy each other very much.  They play nicely with one another, enjoy sleeping together and even try hanging out in a crate together.  They need some work on their leash skills which is being worked on.  They are housebroken, ride well in the car and are crate trained.  They spent a few hours in downtown Annapolis, MD and at the Naval Academy Sunday.  They handled the crowds of people of varying ages well and numerous other dogs of varying sizes.  They had no reaction to skateboards, motorcycles, cars, boats, or going up and down stairs.  Diesel enjoys playing fetch with a ball and Supra enjoys chasing Diesel as he goes for the ball.  They truly are wonderful, easy, good temperaments and enjoy affection.  We feel it is in their best interest to be adopted together, so if you have room in your heart and home for this duo please ask to meet them

Shiloh was returned to us as his family is going through life altering changes and can no longer provide for him as needed. However, he was very much loved by them and he was very attached to them. Upon Shiloh's return, he showed signs of being reactive to strangers and protective of his family. He was also reactive to other dogs. However, he was very friendly, comfortable with and trusting of his family and their bond was evident. He is currently with a reputable trainer so that he can become better socialized and we will provide further updates as we get them from the trainer.

This handsome boy was surrendered to us as the other male dog in the home was not getting along with him.  Reese is now in a foster home living with both male & female dogs of varying sizes, children and cats.  He is good with the larger dogs but is too fixated on the smaller dog and cats.  Reese we believe is a senior, 7 years or older, he will be seen by our vet to try to determine his age.  He certainly has the energy of a younger dog, he enjoys going for walks and romping around the yard.  He a little stiff when first getting up, but once on his feet he has no lameness or stiffness and gets around just fine.

Cyrus is very puppylike. He does know how to sit and give paw. But he needs general obedience. He is a fun, smaller guy that would greatly benefit from group training so that he learns how to socially interact with other dogs.

He loves people. He loves to play fetch with a ball and is eager to explore new things. He likes car rides, is very food motivated and is eager to please his person.

He will need someone with patience and time to teach him right from wrong. Because he's a little grabby and hard on the fingers when it comes to taking treats, he might be better suited in a household without toddlers or very young children.

Cooper was saved from horrible conditions where he lived wth the breeder.  He was the last left of a litter and unwanted because he is deaf.  His guardian angel saved him and surrendered him to us to find his forever home with a family that will cherish him regardless of the fact he is deaf. Training a deaf dog can be done wth hand signals and a vibration collar.  He is adorable, full of life, puppy playfulness and antics.

Shadow found himself looking for a new family and home as his person is terminally ill.  Shadow is a gentle giant, full of playfulness and love to share with a new family.  He is settling into his foster home and doing well.  He requires training, as do all dogs.  Training teaches good canine manners and creates a bond with his new family.  Ask to meet this stunning boy.

Adele came to us from a shelter where she found herself with her 2 pups, Sommer and Faye.  Adele is somewhat unsure of the changes in her life, but she is in the care of a loving a foster who will assure her that she is safe and life will be good from now on.  She will need time to adjust to a new family, along with confidence building.  Training will of course help with this and create a bond with her family.  Please ask to meet this petite beauty.

Oliver found himself in a shelter after he was picked up as a stray. He is sweet, handsome boy who is looking for a forever family and home. He is somewhat shy right now, but who can blame him with the recent changes he has been through. Training will help him build confidence, learn good manners and bond with his family.

Amos was found as a stray with an embedded collar which had to be surgically removed.  He is healing nicely.  Amos is a big 10 month old puppy with lots of puppy energy and antics.  He is a happy, playful boy always looking for something to do.   It's obvious that no one has spent time teaching him good puppy manners.  He likes to greet people by jumping up on them, playing chase and keep away and has no leash skills.  Training and structure will help Amos learn what is expected of him.   If you love to jog, go for long walks and spend time helping Amos burn his energy he would be a great fit.

Sweet, adorable Buck was surrendered to us after he had been dumped at someone's home.  We have no idea what he is mixed with other than pure cuteness.  It has such a unique look.  We have no idea how this puppy ended up being dumped and don't know why someone would do that.

He is settling in to his foster home.

Our volunteers cannot say enough good things about Elke. She is beautiful, sweet, enjoys humans and well mannered. It is obvious that someone spent time with her as she is obedient and is always checking in with her person looking for direction. She walks pretty good on a leash and will lean into her person.

This sweet girl found herself as a stray which landed her in a shelter.  They estimated her to be a year old but her mannerisms are that of a younger dog.  She is full of puppy playfulness, kisses, and tail wags.  She loves the water and will entertain you as she chases the splashing water around in the pool.  Cammy will make a great furry family member and with training, things will get even better.

Oscar is the litter mate to Sargeant.  He was purchased from the breeder when he was 8 weeks old.  His former person has kept outside 24/7.  He is a friendly boy, but is lacking in manners as he has had no guidance from his humans.  Thankfully we were able to rescue Oscar from living outside with no human interaction.  Oscar will need a family who has the patience to deal with a 1 year old puppy who is a blank slate.  He will require a commitment from his family to take him to training and guide him to be the best he can be.  He has so much to learn, but with the smarts of a GSD he should catch on in no time.

Lars came to us as an owner surrender sadly after his former family got a puppy to replace him.  Well it was his lucky day as it is obvious that Lars had not been well cared for.  Upon his arrival his fur was filthy, skin dry and missing patches of fur.  This gentle boy is now receiving vet care and proper nutrition along with supplements.  It is obvious he did not live indoors and most likely was kept on a hard rough surface as he does calloused elbows.  Lars deserves a family that will show him what having a real family is all about.  A comfortable bed, good nutrition, proper care and lots love.
