Good With Kids: Unknown
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Sweet Roger landed in a shelter after being found as a stray. He is underweight, but with good nutrition, a bath, lots of love and the comforts of a home he will be tiptop in no time. Roger is a gentle soul, easy going and friendly. Ask to meet this sweet boy.

Julia came from a shelter, she was not in the best of shape. She had a large hematoma in her ear along with an ear infection. We had the hematoma surgically removed and she is recovering well. She is a very calm and laid back girl, she would make a great family member for someone who is not looking for a high energy dog. Julia would be happy to be sitting by your side, hanging out and being loved on.
Lissy
ADOPTED 08/20/2016!

Lissy was surrendered because her humans could no longer take care of her. As is true of all puppies, Lissy is sweet, cute and cuddly. Lissy will require a lot of attention, time, and patience from her new family. She has a lot to learn and will need leadership and guidance in order to become a good canine citizen. She will get into things, chew on inappropriate things, have accidents, whine, and want lots of attention and love. Lissy will need proper food and vet care for the rest of her life. In return, she will smother you in puppy kisses and cuddles while entertaining you with her puppy antics. If interested in Lissy, please be sure you have the time and patience to raise a puppy and commit to her for her entire life.
Updates:Lissy is such a well behaved girl for a pup of her age. She is learning to walk nicely on a leash. She loves to give lots of puppy kisses and enjoys a good belly rub. She is crate trained and enjoys her crate time for some R & R. She does well with dogs of all sizes. Lissy will not be a large girl, which actually makes handling her that much easier. If you are looking for a well socialized girl, great with children, cats and other dogs then Lissy is your girl.
Forrest
ADOPTED 08/19/2016!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Forrest cannot be any cuter and is absolutely a great little boy, happy go lucky and loves to give puppy kisses. Forrest has a lot to learn about being 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, Forrest will become even more of an amazing boy than he already is. Please inquire if Forrest sounds like a good match for your family.
Stefi
ADOPTED 08/13/2016!
Good With Kids: Yes

Meet Stefi one of our new girls looking for her forever family and home. Walks, playtime, socializing and love will make Stefi a happy pup. Training of course will help her and her new family learn more about each other.
Updates:Hi, my name is Stefi (like Graf for those who remember her). I am totally cute, soft and sweet. Everyone comments on how incredibly soft I am – you won't find another dog as soft as me – and I love being petted, getting belly rubs, and generally just being with you. Within 1 minute of meeting you I will be in belly rub position. I know I don't look like a typical GSD, but it's in my heart – I am loyal, I listen and I love. I have highly expressive ears – they go all directions and even flat – and they help you understand what I am thinking. And along my back and around my neck my fur is a little 'curly'. My foster mommy thinks it charming. People comment that they think I am a puppy – I have great energy, have large paws, and sometimes act a bit goofy. But I have the great things that puppies don't: I am housebroken, I do settle and I come when called, etc. So other bits about me: I love cuddles and dog toys, I need to continue learning my leash manners, sometimes I am a bit too much when meeting other dogs but will settle into it but you'll have to help me, I am a total sweetheart and I will steal your heart. I love stretching out and laying in some interesting positions. Squirrels are fascinating to me, but I didn't show much interest in cats (though haven't been officially tested yet). I love love love kids – just check out my video on my profile. I am the gentlest dog when taking treats, easily eat my meds with my food, am a bit of an escape artist but I don't get in trouble, and I am crate trained – though would rather be out with you. Contact MAGSR and learn more about me. I'd love to meet you and find my forever home!
Sable
ADOPTED 08/10/2016!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Sable along with her puppy Honey were surrendered due to their person moving. Sable is an absolute sweetheart. She is very friendly, greeting people with kisses and tail wags. Sable's puppy days are over, it is time for her to live a life full of love, playtime, walks and being with her people.
Sable arrived to our care with what we were told was a cyst on her eye. We had her seen by a specialist and it turns out that Sable has a tumor on her eye. The tumor is in a location that makes trying to remove the tumor very risky, it also makes it very difficult to do a needle biopsy. In order to determine if the tumor is cancerous her eye will have to be removed and sent for pathology. Sable will be having her surgery shortly.
Little Ms. Sable tolerated her surgery well. She has some discomfort but is adjusting fairly well with her eye sight. Every day we see improvements. She will have to continue to wear the e-collar to prevent any injury to her surgery site until her stitches are removed and she is healed more. She is bumping around the house but learning as she goes. Through all of this Sable still remains very sweet and friendly. What we have learned so far is Sable is crate trained, good with other dogs and is very friendly with our resident cats. Once outside she has learned to follow her foster friends around by latching onto the back of them with her e-collar and follows behind them until she feels confident enough to venture off on her own. Ms. Sable is a easy going girl, loves everyone and will fit into any home. She doesn't seem to know any commands but we will work with her once she is feeling better. Please send healing thoughts her way.
Ziggy
ADOPTED 08/06/2016!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Ziggy is a very handsome black GSD. He is friendly with other dogs and people, he has lived with children in the past ages between 4-14 years old. He is housebroken and crate trained. Ziggy has no leash manners and will jump and pull on the leash, he was not leashed walk much in his previous home, so training will go a long way. Ask to meet this big handsome boy.
Sheba
ADOPTED 08/06/2016!
Good With Kids: Older kids only
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Sheba is what we lovingly call a pocket Shepherd due to her smaller size. Don't let her size deter you though as she has many of the wonderful qualities of a full size GSD, just in a smaller package. Sheba is confused with the changes in her life, we are giving her time to settle in and get to know her better.
Updates:Sheba has been in her foster home now for a few weeks and is really settling in with her foster family. Sheba is super sweet and just an all around great dog. She's also amazing with the resident cats - allows them in and they even allow her to lick/sniff them without running away. Ask to meet Sheba if she sounds like a good fit.
Sam
ADOPTED 08/05/2016!
Good With Kids: Unknown
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
A neighbor found Sam tied to a tree after his family moved away and left him. Thankfully this good samaritan found him, had him seen by a vet then reached out to us to find Sam the home and family he deserves. Sam is somewhat skittish and needs a little time to be comfortable when meeting new people. Once he trusts you he becomes relaxed, enjoying walks and playtime. He will of course need his family to commit to training with him, this will help Sam become more socialized, build his confidence, learn all that he needs to know and of course create a strong bond with his family. Sam needs some work so please be sure you are able to devote the time that is required to help Sam move forward.
Updates:Sam has spent the last few months in a board and train program. Sam came to us having not been well socialized, lacking confidence and fearful. The trainers have brought him a long way, but it is an ongoing process. Sam will require an experienced and knowledgeable GSD handler. It is also required that his new person continues with his training in order for Sam to continue on the right path. Sam does bond with his handler, but requires time to accept new people. If you are interested in Sam it is required that you meet him and follow the directions of his trainers at K9-Koncepts http://www.k9koncepts.com to ensure a good fit for all. If you would like more information on Sam we can put you in touch with his trainers.
Sam is a very handsome, active 5 yr old altered male just reaching maturity. Sam is very sweet, but still shy - he will bond to his handler and definitely needs to be well exercised on a daily basis. Sam has completed basic obedience training, knows basic commands such as sit, down, come, & walks well on loose leash.
Toby
ADOPTED 07/31/2016!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Toby made his way to MAGSR after a kind soul discovered him at a shelter and knew he deserved a chance at a forever home. Having moved around a bit in order to make his way to MAGSR Toby is, understandably, a little unsure about his new circumstances. However, he is slowly warming up to his foster family and we know over time his full personality will shine. As a young and energetic pup, Toby is your typical GSD - he enjoys playing, leaning into his people, and head and neck rubs. Toby will require guidance, training, and continued patience as he develops into a good canine citizen; however, he already has a good start as he is housebroken and is currently crate training. Toby is an intelligent pup who wants to follow the direction of his handler. He is quickly picking up a few commands and is learning how to walk on leash when participating in daily walks with his foster siblings. Although Toby is learning about pack life with his furry foster siblings, he does require slow introductions to new dogs at this time as he lacks confidence. We are sure that over time with training and socialization, Toby will develop into an amazing dog.
It's amazing what a few weeks in a foster home can do for a young, energetic pup. Toby has been very busy lately learning about what it is to be a good canine citizen. Thrilled to try anything that involves a high value treat, Toby has learned many of his basic commands. At this time, Toby knows - sit, stay, down, crate, out, and off. As he has developed many of his commands, Toby has increased his confidence and has become more comfortable within the community. In addition to basic commands, Toby has also been developing his leash manners. As Toby has made significant progress in this area as well, he is now jogging a few miles with a couple times a week. On days when Toby doesn't go for a run, he is thrilled to take a long walk and then play fetch. Activities such as these have helped Toby burn his puppy energy in a constructive manner. When activities are all done, Toby is happy to settle down with his foster family and chew on a bone or snuggle up for a few extra cuddles. If this fun-loving guy sounds like the right match for your household, please inquire about him today.
