Duke
ADOPTED 12/31/2022!
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?
Handsome Duke was a stray in the south. He was an amazing bus stop buddy to several children in the neighborhood where he was living. Although Duke was a neighborhood favorite, the community knew that this sweetheart needed help. When some trauma occurred that caused a bad tail injury, a family stepped in and found him help with another rescuer. Luckily, she had a space for Duke and welcomed him into her home to help him get the care he needed. As his foster worked with him, she recognized that Duke would be best placed in a rescue so that he could get the care needed to move forward. When MAGSR heard about Duke's story, we stepped in and welcomed him to the family.
When Duke arrived in his foster home, he was in a lot of pain. No one could quite imagine what could have happened to his tail. He had been in the community for a few months being fed by a few local families and showed up one day missing most of his tail and in unimaginable pain. Our first step was to get the pain under control and start antibiotics. Once these pieces were in place, Duke's foster made sure he got to a great surgeon who amputated the remainder of Duke's tail. Although the healing process took time and patience, Duke was an excellent patient. He is now completely healed and ready to move forward.
Good with dogs of all sizes, Duke has enjoyed playtime with his foster siblings. He has clearly learned some social skills even with his difficult beginning. Starting to work on basic commands, Duke is now ready to learn all about being a good canine citizen. Looking for a loving forever home, Duke will thrive with structure, routine, and leadership. Training will go a long way with this guy. Not only will it help him develop a strong and healthy bond with his forever family, it will also help him develop into a stable and confident adult dog. Duke is looking for a forever family that enjoys long walks, car rides, and possibly the occasional car ride treat. If he sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet Duke today.
Chloe
ADOPTED 12/31/2022!
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?
Stunning Miss Chloe and her buddy, a great pyrenees, showed up at a dog-friendly household on a chilly September morning. Seeing that the dogs were social and seemed to do well with people if given time to adjust, the home owner began looking for their family. Unfortunately, when the family was found, they made it clear that the dogs were no longer wanted and were not welcome back in their home. Recognizing that both dogs would do best in breed specific rescues, the finder had the dogs surrendered and started working with rescue friends to send out a plea for both pups. Chloe's buddy found placement right away, but many GSD rescues were already over capacity. Word spread that Chloe needed placement. When we heard that this lovely lady needed help, MAGSR immediately welcomed her to the family.
Chloe is in many ways your typical, young GSD. She is active, intelligent, and has endless energy. Motivated and quick to pick up new skills, Chloe has been learning sit, wait, heel, leave it, kennel, place, and recall. It's amazing how quickly she learns. Of course, knowing her treat of choice helps - cheese! As is true of the breed, she will test the handler. A calm and confident handler would be best. Further training will go a long way with Chloe as she already has a foundation to build upon. Training is essential for all dogs as it not only provides everyone with the opportunity to build a strong, healthy bond, but it also helps young dogs, like Chloe, with the opportunity to develop into stable adult dogs. Having had the opportunity to learn about the ins and outs of living in a home, Chloe is both crate trained and housebroken. She is cues with barking when she needs to go outside and takes care of her business quickly. When outside, Chloe is happy to bounce around or simply enjoy the sunshine. She is clearly an adventurous girl who loves the fresh air. She will likely make a great walking or running buddy. Not well socialized with new people, Chloe is good with people of all ages but needs some time to adjust especially when meeting new adults. A slow and patient hand is best during introductions. Although adults take a minute to adjust to, Chloe adores children. Gentle and responsive with the littles, Chloe is definitely a special girl. Having she lived with another dog, Chloe does know some doggy social cues. However, she is most successful with slow introductions to new dogs. When given the opportunity to develop a relationship over time, Chloe does enjoy the company of other dogs, particularly large, male dogs. With structure, routine, and clear leadership, Chloe will thrive. If this incredible girl sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet her today!
Rudolph
ADOPTED 12/22/2022!
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?
MAGSR received a call from another local rescue that a large group of puppies were in need of placement as soon as possible. In total there were 21 pups who would need rescue placement. As this was too many puppies for one group to support, the hope was that we could work together to get everyone into safe and loving homes. With 8 pups finding safety with the other rescue, our team began working together to see if we could find loving foster homes for the remaining 13. Although this was a rather large undertaking, team MAGSR worked quickly to put everything in place. The "Christmas Puppies" - Rudolph, Hermy, Yukon, Clarice, Moonracer, Donner, Vixen, Claus, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Comet, and Cupid - have arrived and are hoping to find forever homes for the holidays.
Having been born in what appears to be less than ideal situations, the "Christmas Puppies" arrived having missed out on early vetting, exposure to new environments, and socialization with people outside their immediate caregivers. Now that they are living with MAGSR foster families, their opportunities are endless. All 13 puppies are going to see our amazing vetting partners so that we can begin vaccinations and make sure that everyone is healthy. In their foster homes, these puppies are learning about toys, treats, regular meals, and the comfort of soft, warm beds. They are also beginning the important process of learning the ins and outs of living in a home. As very intelligent pups everyone is excited to begin. As they move forward, it is critical that their new families provide the "Christmas puppies" with regular socialization with people and other animals. A well socialized pup will become a stable adult. Although these babies are absolutely adorable, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your home with endless puppy antics. With time, training, patience, and socialization, they will develop into good canine citizens. If you are interested in welcoming a member of the "Christmas puppy" litter into your household, ask to meet them today!
Updates:Handsome Rudolph joined the rescue along with his 12 siblings in the middle of November.
Unfortunately, Rudolph joined the rescue with some unexpected medical needs that have required extra support. He could really use your help.
Working closely with our amazing veterinary teams, Rudolph has begun seeing his regular vet to address typical puppy vetting needs as well as a specialist to address concerns about a preputial defect. Although it is unknown if this condition was congenital or trauma based, Rudolph needs a contrast study and preputial reconstruction in order to correct the defect and help him move forward. When combining Rudolph's presurgical care, surgical consult, contrast study, and surgical reconstruction, his care will cost more than four-thousand dollars. Having been a very good puppy throughout this process, we know that Santa has Rudolph on the top of his "nice" list and is working on finding him the perfect forever family. With surgery scheduled in early December, Rudolph is hoping to be healed for the holidays. Rudolph's care is very expensive, but we know that this special guy is worth the cost. Please consider supporting Rudolph for the holidays and donate to his care. Not only will your support help us get this little lovebug the help that he needs to move forward, but it will also help us continue to support other dogs with medical needs.
Lacy
ADOPTED 12/22/2022!
, 
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?
Lacy was surrendered to us due to a baby on the way and there would be no room for Lacy. It is obvious she was not well cared for as she came to us obese, weighing 107 lbs. and should only weigh around 70 lbs. She also came to us with a skin infection and some fur loss, which our vet feels is caused by lack of care and poor quality food. She is being treated for the skin infection, put on a diet, good quality food, along with exercise that she obviously did not get in her last home. She is settling into her foster home and dealing with the changes of her new life. She is confused with some whining, but that is expected with the changes. She is very sweet and friendly with everyone she has met.
Updates:Hi everyone, meet Lacy! Lacy is super sweet with humans and children. She is almost six years old, knows some basic commands, and loves to fetch! She also likes to play soccer, chew on Nylabones and be with her people. She does have a skin allergy that requires daily medicine. Lacy is on a weight management plan so she can slim down a few pounds (summer is coming and she really wants a two piece swimsuit). Lacy is scared of bicycles and golf carts. She is housebroken and crate trained. If you are looking for a furry co worker to rest in a dog bed while you work, play some low key fetch on breaks, go for a short stroll after work or on lunch break, Lacy is the dog for you!!! Lacy has a propensity to resource guard and protect from other dogs (unsure about cats) so she would be best as an only dog. If you have any questions let me know!
Lacy has settled in well at her foster home. She is a pro at keeping all wild creatures out of the backyard. Her soccer skills are something to behold. Her leash walking skills are coming along nicely. And all her beautiful hair has grown back. She does need a daily pill for her skin condition and most likely will need to remain on the pill for the rest of her life. She is a wonderful house guest and always lets me know when something unusual is at the front door. She is not fond of thunder storms or bicycles. She mostly ignores other dogs while out on walks, unless they try to approach. She doesn't get on furniture and takes treats nicely. And she is a favorite at the vets office. If you are looking for a more older mature lady, who will make a great companion Lacy would be a wonderful addition to your family.
Update 23 November 2022: Lacy has been in the rescue for over a year and is really hoping to find a family she can call her own this holiday season. Are you looking for a dog that is already housebroken, knows some basic obedience and is happy to lounge or play fetch in the yard ?! If so, Lacy is the girl for you! Lacy is like a fine wine; she only gets better with age and she absolutely adores her humans. Lacy has 3 main loves: people, jolly balls, food and marrow bones, in that order. Lacy had a rough past as she's been neglected and abandoned by the ones who were entrusted to provide her a loving home but she is putting that behind her and ready to start fresh. Lacy is intelligent, inquisitive, lovable, and protective. As is her true nature she is a herder and wants everyone and everything to be corralled, to include cyclists as she is upset when they pass her by but will gladly jog next to or in front of them. She is great at keeping her humans on a schedule and will vocally let you know if you are late for a feeding or letting her outside. She has blossomed into a beautiful shepherd with a beautiful coat with proper nutrition, medication, and TLC. Lacy would prefer to be the only dog in the household. Lacy would enjoy a family to show her love, attention, structure and patience. She is such a good girl who has a lot of love to give. If Lacy sounds like a good fit for you, ask to meet her today!

Loverboy (L.B.)
ADOPTED 12/22/2022!
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?
Handsome L.B. was picked up as a stray and brought to a shelter in the south. Although he was as friendly as can be, L.B. had hair loss, was emaciated, and tested positive for heartworms. A local rescue recognized that L.B. was a special guy that needed more care than the shelter could provide. As a result, they pulled L.B. with the hope that they could start his road to recovery while looking for a breed specific rescue that would find L.B. an amazing forever family. When we learned that L.B. needed help with the next step of his journey, we welcomed him to the MAGSR family.
L.B. is a sweet, endearing, and lovable guy. Although we do not know anything about his past, it is evident that at some point he was well socialized with people and other dogs. As is true of all GSDs, L.B. will thrive with structure, routine, and leadership. He is hoping that his forever family enjoys long walks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. True of all dogs, training is critical for L.B. Training will not only help L.B. build a strong, healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen. L.B. has waited patiently for his forever family. Could that be with you?
Updates:I walked L.B. (Loverboy) on Sunday. He was easy to leash up, loves treats, loves to follow his nose, and is a good looking youngster. He is friendly, saw no reaction to other pups, jumped into the back seat of my car, without treat, and knows "sit". Threw a paw in there when chicken was involved but that might have been accidental. He does not appear to be interested in balls or other toys, but is still a fun companion, and will do a decent loose heel when prompted. Just an all around friendly pup who needs to add a few pounds and who will allow you to check his ears, paws and teeth and will throw in a few kisses to boot.
Ollie
ADOPTED 12/17/2022!
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 Ollie was picked up as a stray and brought to a shelter in the south. Although he waited patiently for his family to come and claim him, no one stepped forward for this handsome guy. Shelter staff worked hard to try to help Ollie find a forever family; however, with shelter numbers over capacity, Ollie was scheduled to be euthanized. Recognizing that this guy deserved a life and a family of his very own, a final plea went out. Fortunately, we heard Ollie's story and stepped in to help him move forward.
Ollie is a friendly and interactive guy. He simply loves everyone. Charismatic and goofy, it is hard to keep from smiling in his presence. Good with people and with dogs, Ollie was clearly well-socialized at some point along his journey. He is an all around good guy with your typical GSD energy. As a young GSD, Ollie is looking for a forever family that will provide him with the structure, routine, and leadership that all dogs crave. As we do not know anything about Ollie's past, we do not know how much experience has had in a household. However, based upon his stable personality and friendly demeanor, he has known love and companionship. Ollie, like any new dog, will likely need a little time to adjust to the rules and routines of his forever home. However, with patience and clear routines he will thrive. Training will go a long way with Ollie. Not only will this help him bond with his forever family but it will also help him develop the skills needed to be a good canine citizen. Ollie is looking for a forever family that will love him for a lifetime. If this sweet guy sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet him today.
Jockey
ADOPTED 12/17/2022!
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?
Young Jockey was picked up as a stray and brought to a local shelter quite a few times. This last time Jockey got off the farm her family made the tough decision to surrender her as they were afraid she may get hit by a car. Recognizing that a GSD is often most successful if placed through a breed specific rescue, shelter staff worked with MAGSR to help move Jockey forward. We are so excited to have welcomed Jockey to the MAGSR family.
Thriving on attention and interaction, Jockey loves to be doted upon and is incredibly outgoing. She is certainly a work in progress as she doesn't quite realize that she is a full-grown shepherd and certainly needs some work on her manners. Jockey will be a delight in training class. Not only will training help Jockey bond to her new family but it will also help her develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. Training helps to focus the mind and develop confidence. Jockey will benefit from both.
Jockey has not had many interactions with dogs that we are aware of and as a result, we are still learning about her doggy socialization skills.
Jockey is a work in progress and incredibly worth it! If you are interested in helping Jockey learn the good life please inquire.

Update: Dasher is so sweet and has done well in our home. He has come such a long way since the pups were rescued. He loves our dogs, he's very playful, and has come out of his shell and really seeks affection with people. He is good with kids, teens and adults. He's also making great progress with house-training.
Lucy
ADOPTED 12/12/2022!
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?
Lucy's family fell on hard times and could no longer afford to provide her with the care that they knew she deserved. As a result, they decided to surrender her to a local shelter where they hoped that Lucy would find a forever family that would provide her with a lifetime of love. Although the shelter staff recognized that Lucy was an incredible girl, they also knew that shepherds are a special breed that are often most successful when placed within a breed specific rescue. When asked if we could welcome Lucy into the MAGSR family, we immediately stepped forward.
Lovely Lucy is an interactive, intelligent, and affectionate girl. It is obvious that her family worked hard to socialize her with new people and animals. Lucy enjoys the company of people of all ages. She grew up with kids and is accustomed to their activities, sounds, and movements. Lucy also lived with cats. Although she never hurt them, she was known to chase them for fun. Having lived in a household, Lucy knows many of the ins and outs of living in a home. However, as is true of any new dog, she will need time to adjust to the structures and routines of her forever home. Lucy will thrive in an environment with structure, routine, and leadership. Training will go a long way with this lovely lady. Not only will it help her develop a strong, healthy bond with her forever family, but it will also help her develop into a good canine citizen. Lucy is looking for a family that will love her for a lifetime, could that be with you?

Updates:Prancer has taken some time to overcome her rough start and start to take comfort in the people around her. As such, she is slower to warm up to new people but with patience, some ear scratches, treats and toys, you're rewarded with a sweet and comical companion! Prancer has excellent toy and ball drive and would be a great candidate for dog sports (FAST Cat or lure coursing anybody?). Not only does she have the drive itself but she is already perfecting her retrieval and "out"!when motivated with a great toy, she really has no fear and will show off her athleticisim, climbing, jumping and running over or into anything! She does great with another well adjusted dog to learn from-- she tends to blossom when she is with another dog who enjoys her company. She is very respectful of other dogs cues, but definitely appreciates a dog who wants to rough house with her. She does well with dog savvy cats but will chase if they run, so that is a work in progress for any family with feline companions. With a large amount of malinois in her lineage, she learns very fast and loves to have opportunities to work her brain and she has high energy levels that allow her to be an excellent play and exercise companion.

Ada
ADOPTED 12/10/2022!
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?
Ada and her buddy, Amelia, found themselves in a tough situation when their owner got into some trouble and the girls were confiscated. Although they were brought to a shelter where they waited for a forever family that would help them move forward, the girls were not one of the lucky ones that found a home. Staff members adored these girls and kept hoping to find them homes; however, with overcrowding at the shelter and no options available, the girls were placed on the euthanasia list. A final plea went out for help. Fortunately, this plea reached MAGSR. With no time to spare, we immediately stepped up and welcomed both girls into the family.
Ada and Amelia are incredibly sweet girls. Ada has done very well with new people and children. However, she can be a little shy at first and would prefer a family that will be patient as she gains confidence. Ada is looking for a forever family that will provide her with the structure, routine, and leadership that all GSDs crave. Clearly well socialized with other dogs, Ada seems to understand the ins and outs of the doggy world. Although we know that Ada is a love, we do not know anything about her past. As a result, she may need a little patience in her forever home learning the ins and outs of being part of a family. Training will go a long way with Ada. Not only will training help her develop a strong and healthy bond with her forever family, but it will also help her grow into a stable and confident canine citizen. Ada is looking for a forever family that will commit to her for a lifetime. Could that be with you?
Cupid
ADOPTED 12/08/2022!
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?
MAGSR received a call from another local rescue that a large group of puppies were in need of placement as soon as possible. In total there were 21 pups who would need rescue placement. As this was too many puppies for one group to support, the hope was that we could work together to get everyone into safe and loving homes. With 8 pups finding safety with the other rescue, our team began working together to see if we could find loving foster homes for the remaining 13. Although this was a rather large undertaking, team MAGSR worked quickly to put everything in place. The "Christmas Puppies" - Rudolph, Hermy, Yukon, Clarice, Moonracer, Donner, Vixen, Claus, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Comet, and Cupid - have arrived and are hoping to find forever homes for the holidays.
Having been born in what appears to be less than ideal situations, the "Christmas Puppies" arrived having missed out on early vetting, exposure to new environments, and socialization with people outside their immediate caregivers. Now that they are living with MAGSR foster families, their opportunities are endless. All 13 puppies are going to see our amazing vetting partners so that we can begin vaccinations and make sure that everyone is healthy. In their foster homes, these puppies are learning about toys, treats, regular meals, and the comfort of soft, warm beds. They are also beginning the important process of learning the ins and outs of living in a home. As very intelligent pups everyone is excited to begin. As they move forward, it is critical that their new families provide the "Christmas puppies" with regular socialization with people and other animals. A well socialized pup will become a stable adult. Although these babies are absolutely adorable, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your home with endless puppy antics. With time, training, patience, and socialization, they will develop into good canine citizens. If you are interested in welcoming a member of the "Christmas puppy" litter into your household, ask to meet them today!
Updates:<p>Cupid's brother, Rudolph, joined the rescue with some unexpected medical needs that have required extra support. <strong><a href="/donate/rudolf-needs-your-help">He could really use your help.</a></strong></p>
<p>Working closely with our amazing veterinary teams, Rudolph has begun seeing his regular vet to address typical puppy vetting needs as well as a specialist to address concerns about a preputial defect. Although it is unknown if this condition was congenital or trauma based, Rudolph needs a contrast study and preputial reconstruction in order to correct the defect and help him move forward. When combining Rudolph's presurgical care, surgical consult, contrast study, and surgical reconstruction, his care will cost more than four-thousand dollars. Having been a very good puppy throughout this process, we know that Santa has Rudolph on the top of his "nice" list and is working on finding him the perfect forever family. With surgery scheduled in early December, Rudolph is hoping to be healed for the holidays. Rudolph's care is very expensive, but we know that this special guy is worth the cost. <strong><a href="/donate/rudolf-needs-your-help">Please consider supporting Rudolph</a></strong> for the holidays and donate to his care. Not only will your support help us get this little lovebug the help that he needs to move forward, but it will also help us continue to support other dogs with medical needs. </p>
Sir Axyl
ADOPTED 12/05/2022!
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?
Sir Axyl was picked up as a stray and brought to a shelter. Although he was adopted out quickly, he was found running loose in a neighboring town a few months later. Based upon his condition, Sir Axyl had not been treated well. He was emaciated, missing fur, and in sad condition. Recognizing that Sir Axyl deserved to find a forever family that would love and care for him the way he deserved, the shelter began looking for a breed specific rescue that would find Sir Axyl the perfect placement. When we heard about his story, we knew that we needed to help. Team MAGSR immediately began putting plans together to welcome this sweet boy to the family.
Sir Axyl is one of the dogs who makes the world a happier place. He is stable, friendly, and loves everyone. Good with people of all ages, Sir Axyl enjoys the company of his people especially when they are open to a few snuggles. Good with other dogs, Sir Axyl is patient and friendly. Although we do not know anything about his past, we do know that Sir Axyl has known love and kindness at some point in his life and deserves so much more. Having the benefit of living in a foster home, Sir Axyl loves a warm bed and regular meals. He is housebroken and seems to understand many of the rules of a household. However, he will need time to adjust to his forever home. Already knowing a few commands, Sir Axyl is a rockstar on leash. However, further training is essential. Training will not only help Sir Axyl further develop his skills, but it will also help him build a strong and healthy relationship with his forever family. If Sir Axyl sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today!
Amelia
ADOPTED 12/05/2022!
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?
Amelia and her buddy, Ada, found themselves in a tough situation when their owner got into some trouble and the girls were confiscated. Although they were brought to a shelter where they waited for a forever family that would help them move forward, the girls were not one of the lucky ones that found a home. Staff members adored these girls and kept hoping to find them homes; however, with overcrowding at the shelter and no other options available, the girls were placed on the euthanasia list. A final plea went out for help. Fortunately, this plea reached MAGSR. With no time to spare, we stepped up and welcomed both girls into the family.
Amelia and Ada are incredibly sweet girls. Amelia is a little more confident than her buddy. She clearly enjoys the company of her people and leans in for love and affection. Amelia has no problem sharing affection with people of all ages. She is looking for a forever family that will provide her with the structure, routine, and leadership that all GSDs crave. Clearly well socialized with other dogs, Amelia seems to understand the ins and outs of the doggy world. Although we know that Amelia is adorable, we do not know anything about her past. As a result, she may need a little patience in her forever home learning the ins and outs of being part of a family. Training will go a long way with Amelia. Not only will training help her develop a strong and healthy bond with her forever family, but it will also help her grow into a stable and confident canine citizen. Amelia is looking for a forever family that will commit to her for a lifetime. Could that be with you?
