DESCRIPTION:

Otis and his brother were found as strays on a road in Afghanistan by US troops who took them in. Although their bodies told a story of a difficult upbringing, Otis and his brother are extremely affectionate and even tempered. Recognizing that the dogs would not survive if left behind, several service members coordinated and arranged for transport of both dogs back to the United States. Although this was no small feat, Otis and his brother arrived ready for their long awaited and much deserved forever homes. 

Otis recently joined the MAGSR family as it was felt that he would have his best chance at finding the perfect forever home through a rescue. This sweet, playful guy is a complete ham. He is a huge fan of attention and belly rubs. We have yet to meet anyone that Otis doesn't like. His social personality brings smiles to everyone around him. Although Otis is good with other dogs, he does need a home where he is the only dog or a home with female dogs. Otis, like all dogs, will thrive with structure, routine, and leadership. Training will go a long way with Otis as it will not only help him bond to his new family, but it will also help him become the good canine citizen we know he is destined to be. This sweet, resilient boy is looking for a loving forever family that will care for him for a lifetime. Could that family be you?

Updates:

Otis has been around the world and he is one of the happiest and most resilient dogs I have ever encountered. He is fully house and leash trained and a joy to walk as he experiences the world. He will benefit from a consistent, gentle hand to finalize his training but he is quick and eager to learn and please. He loves all people, children and other dogs.  He will do best in a setting where he can be active and outside.   Look up the breed Afghan Shepherd and you can learn more about this unique breed. He has the potential to be the best companion ever.

ADOPTED 11/15/2021!



Gender: Female
Breed: German Shepherd Mix
Approximate Age: 3 years 9 months
Color: Black & White
Current Size: 6 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: Unknown
Housebroken: No, I'm a puppy!
Obedience Trained: No, I'm a puppy!
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: Yes
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Amy, her mom, and her six siblings - Jill, Joe, Mikey, Monica, Phoebe, and Rachael - were dumped on a country road in the south. Covered in ringworm, emaciated, and clearly not well cared for, this little family needed help and quickly. Fortunately, a good samaritan found this family and got them to the safety of a shelter. Although shelter staff did a wonderful job getting this family the help they needed, they knew that moms and puppies do not belong in a shelter environment. As a result, a rescue plea went out. When we heard that this little family needed help, MAGSR immediately stepped forward. 

 

Amy is sweet, affectionate, and playful. She is everything that a puppy should be. Although this little girl is a gem, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy energy and antics. They get into things, whine, and will chew on inappropriate items. With time, patience, and training, Amy will develop into the good canine citizen we know she is destined to become. Amy is looking for a loving forever household that will commit to her for a lifetime. If your family is looking for puppy kisses, antics, and wiggles, please ask to meet Amy today.

Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 8 years 8 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 60 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: No
Altered: Yes

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

Scotty was a beloved member of his household. However, due to circumstances beyond their control, they could no longer provide him with the life that they knew he deserved. Recognizing that Scotty would be happiest if he found a new home, they made the difficult decision to surrender him to MAGSR. We promised Scotty's family that we would find him a safe and loving forever home. 

Scotty is a stable and inquisitive guy. He enjoys the company of his people and has grown up with little kids. Although Scotty is still learning leash manners, he is a quick study and is attentive to the handler. He should be a star in training class! Training will be essential for Scotty as it will not only help him to adjust to his new family but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen. Having lived in a household, Scotty already knows many of the ins and outs of living in a home. He is housebroken and crate trained. However, as is true of any new dog, Scotty will need some time to adjust to his new home in order to meet with success. Scotty is looking for a forever family that will keep him safe and loved for a lifetime. Could that be with you?

Good With Kids: Unknown
Good With Cats: Unknown
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Jodie and her siblings, Anna and Teddy Bear, were brought to a shelter when their owner passed away. Unfortunately, it was apparent that their owner had been struggling to care for these dogs for a while. Fearful and avoidant in the shelter environment, this little family needed out and fast. Knowing we could provide this family with the life and love they deserve, MAGSR welcomed them to the family.

Jodie is a sweet little lady but she is timid. Somewhat hand-shy, Jodie does well with a patient handler who will give her time to trust. Once comfortable, she warms up for love and attention. A big fan of kisses, Jodie is affectionate and cuddly with her people. Due to the condition in which she arrived, Jodie has needed a little extra TLC. She arrived sick with an URI and dirty from lack of care. Fortunately, our amazing vetting partners were able to help Jodie get the relief she needed. With time, patience, and a little support, Jodie is making steady progress. Jodie will thrive in a household that will provide structure, routine, and patience. Unfortunately, we have discovered that Jodie is heartworm positive. This condition could have been avoided had she been provided monthly heartworm preventatives. We have already begun Jodie's treatment. The cost of her entire treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Treatment is expensive, but this lovely girl is beyond worth the cost. Please consider donating toward Jodie's treatment. Your generosity will help us save her and other dogs with medical needs. Although Jodie will need to take it slow over the next few months while she undergoes treatment, this will give her time to adjust to her new environment and meet with success in her forever home. Jodie is looking for a forever family that will provide her with the structure, patience, and love that she so clearly deserves. Could this be with you?

Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 4 years 4 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 44 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 55-60 lbs
Housebroken: Unknown
Obedience Trained: No, I'm a puppy!
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Unknown
Good With Cats: Unknown
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Pilot and his buddy, Jet, were picked up as strays and brought to a local shelter. Upon their arrival it was highly evident that these boys had not been treated well by their people. A little unsure about their surroundings, emaciated, and in poor health, shelter staff felt it would be best if these boys were placed with a rescue. When asked if MAGSR could work with the boys to move them forward, we immediately committed to them knowing that we could find these guys a safe and loving forever home. 

Pilot is a young, energetic, and playful guy. Although he can be a little shy at first, when given a little time to adjust, he comes around quickly for time and attention.  As a teenager, Pilot is still learning all the rules of living in a home. He will benefit from a household that will provide him with the structure, leadership, and consistency that all young dogs need. Pilot is lucky to be living in a loving foster home that is teaching him all about the joys of living in a household. However, just like any new dog, he will need to fine tune his skills in his forever home. Training will go a long way with Pilot. Not only will it help him bond with his new family but it will also help him develop into a stable and confident canine good citizen. If your family is looking for a young, active, and affectionate guy, ask to meet Pilot today.

Miss Jackie

ADOPTED 11/06/2021!


Miss JackieMiss JackieMiss JackieMiss JackieMiss JackieMiss JackieMiss JackieMiss JackieMiss JackieJackieJackieJackieMiss JackieMiss JackieMiss JackieMiss Jackie
Gender: Female
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 9 years 5 months
Color: Black
Current Size: 60 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 60 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Partially
Altered: No

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

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?

Updates:

Miss Jackie is a very sweet girl. She seems to love all humans and loves attention. She is a laid back, easy going dog. She loves going for long walks. She likes playing with certain toys. She is housebroken and crate trained. Miss Jackie prefers male dogs over females, she can be quite reactive to female dogs. She will get along with most male dogs, but when she wants her own space she'll react. I think it's safe to say Miss Jackie likes being the boss and if she had her choice she would like to be the only dog in the house.

DESCRIPTION:

Little Summit was picked up on the side of the road and brought to a local shelter. Upon his arrival it was very apparent that Summit was in need of help and fast. Lethargic, dirty, and emaciated, shelter staff immediately began putting medical supports in place. When it was felt that Summit may be stabilizing, they reached out to MAGSR to see if we could bring this adorable little guy into our care so he could continue to get the support he needed in a more puppy friendly environment. We immediately welcomed Summit into the MAGSR family and placed him with an experienced foster family. 

Although Summit entered the rescue feeling a little more like a puppy, unfortunately, this did not last long. Recognizing that Summit was again in need of medical support, his foster family rushed him to the ER. He is currently hospitalized with one of MAGSR's fantastic internal specialists. We are running tests and providing Summit with supportive care while our veterinarians work hard to determine next steps. Although MAGSR will do everything we can to help Summit survive, this is a very expensive undertaking. Please consider donating to Summit's care. Your financial support will not only help Summit but it will also help us meet the needs of other medical dogs.

Updates:

Sweet Summit received some fantastic care while at the ER. His little body was given supportive care while x-rays were run and an ultrasound performed. Everything came back looking great. As Summit rested, his body had the chance to begin recuperating. When ready, he began eating again and his puppy-like charms emerged. Within 24 hours, Summit was released to his foster family. Since his arrival back in their home, Summit has been playing, eating, and interacting the way puppies should. A huge fan of toys, Summit happily moves from toy to toy making sure he gives a little attention to each one. He is goofy and playful but also loves snuggles with his people. An incredible house guest, Summit has been making huge progress with housebreaking. He has yet to have an accident in his crate and seems to understand that the outside is for taking care of business. Clearly intelligent, Summit is beginning to learn a few simple commands. Food, praise, and toy motivated, this little guy is going to be the star at training class. Although an absolute joy to be around, please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family. Puppies are full of puppy energy and antics. They get into things, whine, and will chew on inappropriate items. With time, patience, adn training, Summit will develop into the good canine citizen we know he is destined to become. Summit is looking for a loving household that will commit to him for a lifetime. Could that be with you?

As great as this news is, Houston and Zulu could still use your help.

Current Size: 48lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 50-55lbs

Obedience Trained: No
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Yes, older kids
Good With Cats: Unknown

DESCRIPTION:

Haruto and several of his siblings were confiscated from their household as their family could not properly care for them. As is true of most shepherds, when moved out of his home and into a crowded shelter, Haruto was scared not knowing what was happening. Fortunately, volunteers recognized that Haruto was a sweet guy and spent some extra time supporting him. Recognizing that Haruto would be most successful if transferred to a rescue, they reached out for help. We were happy to welcome Haruto to the MAGSR family. 

Haruto is your typical young, energetic pup. He's playful and goofy personality easily wins over everyone around. Having had little routine or leadership prior to coming to MAGSR, Haruto will need to develop his manners in his new home. As is true of all dogs, training will go a long way for this guy. A regular participant in doggy playgroup, Haruto is a social guy particularly, when with his brother Haru. These two pups simply love to play together. Haruto is looking for an active family that will help him burn his energy both physically and mentally every day. If Haruto sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet him today!

Gender: Female
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 4 years 10 months
Color: Cream
Current Size: 64 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 70 lbs
Housebroken: Unknown
Obedience Trained: No
Altered: No

Good With Kids: Older kids, over 12
Good With Cats: Unknown
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Beautiful Stella was found on the streets of a big, busy city. She was taken to a shelter with the hopes that her family would come and claim her. Unfortunately, no one came to get this lovely girl. Shelters have been quickly reaching capacity over the last few months and this shelter found itself in the same situation. Although they tried to help Stella find a loving forever home, shelter staff recognized that Stella would be more successful if she was transferred to a breed specific rescue. When we heard of Stella's need, MAGSR welcomed her to the family.

Stella is a gorgeous, playful girl. She can be timid and a little shy when first meeting new people. However, given time and patience, Stella's lovely personality will shine. Having participated in doggy play groups at the shelter, Stella enjoys the company of other dogs and has participated in many doggy play sessions. However, as is true of most dogs when she is tired, she will let the other dogs know she needs a break. As a young girl, Stella will benefit from continued socialization with people, other animals, and in a variety of environments. This will help her develop into a stable adult. Training will also be very important for Stella as it will help her bond with her new family as well as develop the skills needed to become a confident dog.

Unfortunately, we have learned that Stella is heartworm positive. This diagnosis could have been avoided had she been provided with monthly preventatives. Stella's heartworm treatment has already begun and she is doing very well. The cost of her entire treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Treatment is expensive, but this gorgeous girl is more than worth the cost. Please consider donating to Stella's treatment. Your generosity will help us save her and other dogs with medical needs. Although Stella will need to take it slow over the next few months, she will be back to full strength soon. Stella is looking for a loving forever home that will commit to her for a lifetime. Could that be with you?

Skye

ADOPTED 11/01/2021!



Gender: Female
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 4 years 7 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 60 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 65 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: No
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: Yes
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Skye was surrendered to a shelter when her family could no longer provide for her. Fortunately, a foster family was able to step up and take her into their care so that Skye could remain in a household while she waited for her forever family. Unfortunately, due to a sad turn of events, Skye's foster was injured and could no longer take care of her. Recognizing that Skye was out of options, rescue groups in the area began searching for a placement in another region. When asked if we could bring this lovely girl into the MAGSR family, we immediately stepped forward. 

Skye is the sweetest, well mannered and tolerable girl. She is wonderful with small children, adults, and dogs, and even cats. Although it should be known that she does find the cats interesting. Having lived in a household, Skye is both housebroken and crate trained. She is comfortable and happy in her crate, on the floor, or even on the couch (if allowed). Lovable and affectionate, Skye is a big kisser but may be one of the sloppiest kissers you will ever meet. She is looking for a household that would appreciate a nice balance of playtime, training, and snuggles. 

We have learned that Skye is heartworm positive. This diagnosis could have been avoided had Skye been provided with monthly heartworm preventatives. We have already begun Skye's treatment and the cost of her entire treatment will be covered by MAGSR. Treatment is expensive, but this sweet little girl is beyond worth the cost. Please consider donating toward Skye's treatment. Your generosity will help us save her and other dogs with medical needs. Although Skye will need to take it easy over the next few months while she undergoes treatment, she will be an easy patient as she already knows so much about living in a home. Skye is looking for a forever family that will commit to her for a lifetime. Could this be with you?
