Kash
ADOPTED 05/25/2025!
Good With Kids: Likely
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Handsome Kash and his sweet buddy, Kai, were absolutely adored by their family. Having grown up in a loving home, these boys had everything they needed and thrived. Unfortunately, when a new member joined the household, a severe allergy developed. Kash and Kai's family worked with doctors to address this allergy so that the family could remain together, but these measures proved unsuccessful and the boys were moved to a separate part of the home. Although they still received as much attention as possible, a complete separation was necessary in order to keep everyone healthy. The family remained this way for some time; however, they knew this wasn't fair to Kash and Kai. Recognizing that the boys would need to be rehomed for everyone's safety and happiness, Kash and Kai's family reach out for help. This was not an easy decision, but it was the best option to help the boys move forward. Knowing both Kash and Kai were incredible dogs that deserved a safe option to move forward, they were welcomed to the MAGSR family.
Kash is an outdoorsy guy. He loves the fresh air, freedom to run around, and the sunshine. A ball guy through and through, Kash is hardly ever found without a ball in his mouth or right next to him. Happy to chill with the ball, Kash keeps it close for security. However, he is beyond excited to play fetch with his people. He is hoping that his forever family is ready to keep their throwing arm in good shape. Comfortable with other dogs, Kash has been well-socialized. He is most comfortable with his buddy, Kai, and wouldn't mind resettling in a home with his partner in crime. Having lived in a GSD savvy home, Kash has learned the ins and outs of living in a household. He is house-broken and crate trained. He will even help you keep things clean, as dirty clothes are his one vice. True of all new dogs, Kash will need time to adjust to his forever family. With structure, routine, leadership, and daily activities, Kash will thrive. Training will be key to his success. Although he already knows some basics, training will help Kash develop a strong and healthy bond with his forever family. In addition, it will help him develop the skills he needs to become a good canine citizen.
Kash is looking for an incredible forever family that enjoys a solid companion, an outdoor adventure, and a good game of fetch. If this stunning boy sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet Kash today!
Schmidt
ADOPTED 05/24/2025!
Good With Kids: Likely
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Schmidt, like so many dogs, found himself at a crowded shelter as just a baby. Underweight, dirty, full of worms, and malnourished, this little guy was scared and unsure. It was beyond evident that he needed help and fast. Fortunately, a local rescue was able to pull this handsome guy quickly and began getting him some of the critical care he needed to meet with success. With some much needed vetting started and some supportive care in place, the rescue began looking into breed specific resources that could help Schmidt find a safe and loving forever home that would understand and know how to work with a GSD. Shepherds are an intelligent, active, and loyal breed; however, it is understood in the rescue community that they are not for everyone. When asked if we could welcome Schmidt into the MAGSR family, our team immediately came together to provide him with a safe landing.
Schmidt is a special guy. He has had a rough start, but things are definitely looking up. Living with an incredible foster family, this little guy is soaking in all the love he can. Recognizing the importance of socialization, his foster family is giving him endless opportunities to socialize with new people and other animals. Socialization is critical as it will help Schmidt develop the skills needed to grow into a stable and confident adult. His forever family will need to continue this process. As a young guy, Schmidt is learning the ins and outs of living in a home. He enjoys playing with his foster siblings, puppy toys, and endless snuggles. Making great progress with housebreaking and crate training, Schmidt is a smart little guy. Although Schmidt is an absolute love, 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 structure, we know that Schmidt is destined to become an incredible family member. If Schmidt sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today!
Jenny
ADOPTED 05/17/2025!
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?
Jenny and her buddy, Forest, were lucky to have grown up in a loving home that had planned to love them for a lifetime. Forest joined the family as a baby and was immediately adored. Jenny joined a little later when another family in the area needed to rehome her. She was immediately adored. Like "peas and carrots" these two lived side by side in an incredible household. Unfortunately, things simply don't always work out the way we plan. When circumstances changed unexpectedly in their home, it became clear that it was in both dogs best interest that they be rehomed. This is never an easy decision; it is often one of the hardest choices a family must make. However, their family knew this was what was best for both dogs. When asked if we could help both dogs move forward with loving families that would last a lifetime, team MAGSR stepped forward.
Jenny is a beautiful, intelligent, and active girl. With some very GSD heavy traits, she can be more timid and hesitant with new people. As a result, it can take her a little time to adjust to her surroundings. However, when given a chance to decompress, Jenny is friendly, sweet, and an amazing companion. Once truly bonded with her people, Jenny is your typical GSD - a constant presence, loyal, and on point. Having had endless opportunities to learn about the joys of daily activities and toys, Jenny enjoys playtime and hopes her forever family has plenty of toys. A lucky lady, Jenny has had the opportunity to begin building her good canine citizenship skills and participate in training. This has helped Jenny enhance her leash manners, develop commands, and increase her confidence. Although Jenny is building a solid foundation, it is critical that Jenny continue training. Not only will training help Jenny build a healthy and lasting bond with her forever family, but it will also help her continue to solidify her good canine citizenship skills.
Having had the benefit of living in a loving household, Jenny is already housebroken and crate trained. She has developed a good understanding of many of the ins and outs of living in a home. However, it is critical that her forever family provide her with time, patience, structure, and routine. With leadership and clear expectations, Jenny will thrive. This lovely lady is looking for a forever family that will take her on daily adventures, provide her with plenty of toys, and shower her with love. If Jenny sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet her today!
Cashew
ADOPTED 05/17/2025!
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?
Cashew found himself in a tough situation and was placed with a rescue in the south. He landed in a loving foster family where he settled in nicely with his foster mom. From time to time, her grandchildren would visit and Cashew was delighted by their presence. Although Cashew was doing well with his foster family, when a family emergency arose, he needed to find an alternative placement. Foster families are incredible, but they are not always as easy to find as we would hope. Without another foster available, once again Cashew found himself in a tough situation. Knowing that this guy needed another option, the rescue reached out to MAGSR to transfer Cashew into our care. We welcomed Cashew to the MAGSR family and did not look back.
Cashew is a big, intelligent guy. Very typical of the breed, he prefers slow introductions and clear expectations. He is most successful with a calm, confident, and experienced handler that will set him up for success. Initially more comfortable with women than men, Cashew is working with our volunteers to develop confidence and boundaries. Training will go a long way with this guy. Not only will training help Cashew develop the skills he needs to become a good canine citizen, but it will also help him build a strong, healthy, and lasting relationship with his forever family. As is true of all GSDs, Cashew is looking for a forever family that will provide him with structure, routine, and leadership. Allowing him time to decompress and adjust in his new home will help Cashew meet with success. Having lived in an incredible foster home, Cashew understands many of the ins and outs of living in a household. He is housebroken and crate trained. He has also developed a solid understanding of pack expectations and has done well with other dogs in the home. With some alpha tendencies, Cashew may be most successful with less dominant dogs. A big fan of daily activities both inside and outside of the household, Cashew has shown that he prefers to be close to his people. Ensuring that Cashew bonds in a healthy manner will be an important first step in his forever family. With time, patience, and training, Cashew will be an amazing companion.
Cashew is looking for a special family that will cherish him throughout his golden years. If this handsome guy sounds like a good match for your family, ask to meet him today!
Starlight
ADOPTED 05/15/2025!

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?
Momma Starlight and her adorable babies - Niner, Babs, Peace, Benisa and Seven - were surrendered to an overcrowded shelter when the babies were just 6 weeks old. Although shelter staff do everything they can to keep families safe, raising puppies in a shelter is stressful for the entire family and often results in illness. Although this family was clearly very sweet, no one stepped forward to help them. As shelter numbers everywhere are at astronomical rates, Momma Starlight and her babies were at significant risk of being euthanized as owner surrenders are typically the first to cross. Days passed without interest and the family was placed on the list to be euthanized. The rescue community was doing everything they could to help, but with rescues at critical levels finding placement options was very challenging. Fortunately, an incredible rescue close to the shelter was able to secure temp fosters for the family hoping to work with other rescues to move them forward. When asked if MAGSR could be the family's rescue destination, our team sent out a plea for help. We were lucky to have fosters ready and willing to help. The uncertainty of their survival had finally ended as they made their way to the MAGSR family.
Momma Starlight has been through so many challenges over the last two months, but she remains very sweet. Clearly a good mom, Starlight has done an incredible job raising her babies. However, it is time for Starlight to soak in the love and attention of a forever family. Starlight has had the opportunity to adjust to life without the babies in an experienced foster family. She is taking some time to decompress and enjoy the safety and security of a loving household. Once comfortable, Starlight is affectionate and full of gentle kisses. She seems to know that life can only get better from now on. Still somewhat a puppy herself, Starlight can be goofy and playful. She loves to goof around outside then roll over for belly rubs. Living in a foster home with other dogs, Starlight has done well. She was also a very patient mom to the babies. Although in a foster home now, we do not know how much experience Starlight has had in a household. She is learning to crate train and is adjusting to the routines and expectations of the home. As Starlight moves forward, she will thrive with consistency, structure, and leadership. Training will also go a long way for Starlight. Not only will it help her create a strong and healthy bond with her forever family, but it will also help her develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen.
Starlight is looking for an active family that will enjoy daily activities with her. She is also hoping that they are looking for a few extra snuggles at night. This gorgeous girl is ready for the perfect family to welcome her home. If Starlight sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet her today!
