Adopted MAGSR Dogs

This happy girl came to us as a stray. She is a sweet dainty girly girl that found herself with animal control and no one came for her. Although she can be shy with new people, Elke is a people pleaser and loves to socialize once comfortable. Typical of a young shepherd, Elke has some puppy energy and is a joy to be around. She loves squeaky toys and playing ball outside. She will get a bit mouthy when excited, but she will stop when corrected. At this time, Elke is in a loving foster home learning about house breaking, crate training, and general household manners. If Elke sounds like a good match for your family, please ask to meet her today.

Titan's family loved him very much. Unfortunately, they had to make the difficult decision to surrender him to a shelter when they could not find appropriate housing that would allow for a GSD. Prior to his arrival at the shelter, Titan lived with kids of varying ages. His family made sure to keep him well socialized, even bringing him to work from time to time.

Since his arrival at MAGSR, Titan has been identified as a goofball. He is energetic and playful. Titan is a ball dog. He loves to play ball and brings a lot of laughter when doing so. Titan, just like any dog, will benefit from training with his new family. This will not only help him bond with his new family but it will also help him become a good canine citizen. If Titan sounds like a good match for your household, please ask to meet him today.

Sadie and Mazie were well-loved members of their family. Unfortunately, due to circumstances outside of their control, the girls' family needed to find them a new home. MAGSR was honored to step-up and provide Sadie and Mazie with a safe haven while we looked for the perfect forever for these girls. 

Sadie is a sweet girl who looks for guidance and leadership from those around her. When given calm and consistent leadership, Sadie responds positively. Sadie, similar to Mazie, is a little confused by all of the changes in her life. As a result, she needs a little extra time to warm up to new people and situations. However, when provided with guidance and support, Sadie warms up to new people and takes cues from the handler.

If Sadie sounds like a good match for your household, ask to meet her today. 

Jasper was dumped by his former owner on a country road and picked up by animal control.  When our volunteer picked him up from the shelter it was obvious he was not feeling well and not in great shape.  He immediately went into medical boarding at one of our vets offices, where he received the best care.  He had a severe respiratory and ear infection, hair loss with a skin infection and was not eating.  All needed tests were performed and treatment was started.  As time went on he was still not wanting to eat, radiographs were taken and it was found he had foreign objects in him.  He was immediately taken to surgery where a number of assorted items were removed from his stomach.

After spending 3 weeks in medical boarding Jasper was able to go home with his foster.  He is now on the mend, starting to eat on his own and finally wagging his tail some.  He still needs to put on some more weight but his foster will be sure he never misses a much needed meal.

Through all of this he has been nothing but sweet and friendly.  Jasper is now looking for his forever family, one that will treat him with care and love him for his lifetime.  He is ready to leave his past behind and looks forward to a future of living in a home, proper nutrition, walks, playtime and lots of cuddles from his humans.

Kona is a beautiful and intelligent girl. She was surrendered to MAGSR when her family was unable to continue to care for her. As it is quite evident that Kona's family loved her, we have promised to help Kona find a forever family that will continue to provide her with the structure, guidance, and love that will help her continue to thrive. 

Housebroken and crate trained, Kona understands many of the household rules. However, as is true of many shepherds, she may try to explore too much when her family is away. As a result, it is best that Kona be crated when her family is away. Having previously lived with a large male, Kona enjoys the company of other large dogs, particularly, male dogs. She has a confident and stable personality. Kona has lived with children in her previous home and did well with them. Although Kona does already know some commands, she will excel in training with her new family. This will help her develop a strong bond. If Kona sounds like a good match for your family, please ask to meet her today. 

 Diesel is a large male about 1.5 years old but acts like an 8 month old puppy. He requires a strong owner who will hold him accountable, and training is a must. Diesel will require daily exercise to keep his energy in check. He still has some bad habits that will need to be worked on. Diesel is mouthy when excited, however, he responds well to correction.  He also counter surfs if not supervised. If he isn’t properly supervised in the yard he will dig. Once he has been exercised he is much calmer and listens very well.

Diesel rides well in a car and loves to go on walks. He has good leash manners and has been non reactive to dogs or people while on walks. Diesel has lived in a home with 7 other dogs while in foster without any issues. He crates well and is house broken. While in his foster home he has made great improvement regarding the negative behaviors listed here but will require continued work. He is a very sweet and lovable boy who needs the right family, to get the excess energy out and teach him what he needs to know.

Happy-go-lucky Aster found herself in a shelter with no one coming to claim her. Although she can be shy with new people, Aster is a people pleaser and loves to socialize once comfortable. Typical of a young shepherd, Aster has some puppy energy and is an overall joy to be around. At this time, Aster is in a loving foster home learning about housebreaking, crate training, and general household manners. If Aster sounds like a good match for your household, please ask to meet her today.

Apollo is a big, handsome fellow, and he is settling in nicely in his foster home.  It has been a couple weeks so this very striking and impressive dog is starting to get past the stress of being separated from his previous family, and is showing himself to be even-tempered, affectionate, and trained GSD.  With consistent and appropriate guidance from his person, he walks very well on leash, is well-mannered passing strangers and other dogs out walking in the neighborhood, and is generally very attentive and responsive.  However, Apollo is a powerful, headstrong dog that will require structure and strong leadership, and he does show some anxiety when left completely alone so he will need to be properly managed by an experienced adopter to build his confidence and avoid potential separation anxiety.  He is comfortable with the other dogs in his foster home, and crates very well.  Apollo is alert and can be protective of his space and pack, and will alarm bark at unfamiliar people.  He listens well, and is very focused on a leader that he trusts, and will need to complete training with his new people to help build and ensure those bonds of trust.  He will thrive in a home that can provide him with the love and consistent leadership that he needs, and he deserves nothing less.  If you think Apollo might be the dog for you, please ask to learn more about him.

Chole (yes, Chole, not Chloe) found her way to MAGSR when her family fell on hard times and could no longer take care of her. This heart-wrenching decision was made in the best interest of Chole who was clearly a treasured member of the family. Chole is a lovely lady who has lived with kids, dogs, and cats. In fact she has helped many rescue cats find their way home over the years. With a stable and playful personality, Chole loves to play ball and enjoys the company of others. She easily wins over the hearts of minds of everyone who meets her. Chole would be a wonderful addition to any household. Please ask to meet her today. 

Khaleesi came to us as her prior person is being stationed out of the country and could not take her along.  Wanting only the best for Khaleesi she was surrendered to us to find her a loving family.  Khaleesi has lived with another male GSD and got along fine.  She is reported to be very friendly with people.  As she is new to us we are still learning more about her, please check back for updates.
