One of the largest puppy mill busts found hundreds of German Shepherd's living in absolute filth and in horrendous condition. Ankle deep mud and feces mixed with urine, no adequate shelter, lacking food and clean water is how these dogs were left to live, many for years. The urgent call was made and MAGSR knew we had to take in as many as possible. We now have 38 dogs that have a multitude of medical needs that we are addressing, and they need to learn to trust humans. All dogs are scared, some are shut down, but our volunteers and vets will get them on their road to recovery. It will be awhile before these dogs are ready for adoption, so please be patient and watch for updates.
An undertaking of this size for an all-volunteer rescue is quite a task, but one we are meeting it head on. Many of the dogs require medical boarding so that they can receive the best possible care. We are committed to providing everything they need, not only medically, but emotionally. Our medical costs are going to be at an amount we have never seen before. We need your help, the dogs need your help. Please donate , your donation will go towards their ongoing care, medical needs, emotional needs and help them on their road to recovery and a brighter future.
Blue
ADOPTED 02/16/2019!
Good With Kids: Yes
Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Blue was surrendered to us as his loving family fell on hard times and did not have the finances to continue to care for Blue. He is very much loved by his previous family and they only want what's best for him. Blue is having some allergy issues which has caused some fur loss and irradiated skin. He is on medication to bring him some relief, we have changed his diet and he will be seen by our vet. As you can imagine, Blue is quite confused with losing his family and home. He lived with children ages 6 through 16. We are giving Blue time to settle in and become accustom to his new surroundings and our volunteers.
Updates:Blue is settling into his foster home even though it's only been a few days. He's walking better on a leash and really wants to play with or at least be near the resident GSD, who is still trying to figure out who his new house guest is. Blue likes to chew on his chew toys and is crating really well with no accidents in the house or the crate. Blue seems to know basic commands, but can sometimes be stubborn, but he's young and training should help with that. If Blue sounds like he'd fit well into your family, ask to meet him.
Blue continues to progress with his training. He's great in the crate and is still accident free in the house. Blue takes the "tough chew" label on toys as a personal challenge and wins every time! He loves his Nylabones and antlers. Blue is still leary of new people, but we're working on it. We'll continue with training and go to more public places to get him comfortable with new experiences.
Frieda
ADOPTED 02/15/2019!
Good With Kids: Yes

Frieda came to us from a not so good situation. She was used as a breeding dog, she was not provided with proper care or adequate living conditions. Thankfully after complaints and an investigation she, along with other dogs were confiscated. Frieda is now in our care where she is looking for a family that will provide her with a loving and warm home, where she means more to her family than just a puppy machine. Sweet Frieda needs someone who will love and care for her during her golden years. Someone that will show her that not all humans are cruel. She needs a place to rest her body and soul, to go for leisurely strolls, to lay in the sun and take in the day, to have a big comfy bed of her very own and to finally know true love. Please give this beautiful senior girl the chance at a life she has never known, if it isn't for as long as a younger dog, she is just as deserving.

Rhee
ADOPTED 02/10/2019!
Good With Kids: Yes

Rhee lost her family and home as her Military family were stationed overseas until 2022. Rhee was staying with a family friend but unfortunately did not adjust well and was not getting along with the other dogs in the home. Rhee will require time to adjust to yet another change in her life, a family with patience that will provide structure is best. She lived with children since she was 11 months old with no issues. She has been through professional obedience training, but a refresher course with her new family is required.
Updates:Rhee is a wonderful girl. She has settled into her foster home, is crate trained, and has excellent house manners. Rhee is currently a plus-size girl and loves to play, chew on toys, and go on walks. Rhee's leash manners need a little work, which a refresher course with a trainer will help to improve. Rhee loves everyone she meets and is patiently waiting for her forever home. Please ask to meet Rhee and be her fur-ever family.
Hello, my name is Rhee! I’m living with a foster family and I consider myself a perfect guest. I heard that I am the best foster they have ever had (I’m not their only foster). I am housebroken, crate trained, and I know basic obedience. I don’t counter-surf or get on the furniture. I love to chew, but only on my toys. I was put on a diet and exercise program and I have slimmed down. I can walk a 5K at a brisk pace. So, if your looking for an active, well-behaved walking companion who is slightly senior, please ask to meet me. See you soon!
