Adopted MAGSR Dogs
These are the most recent MAGSR adoptions. Dogs adopted prior to 2016 can be found here.
Frieda
ADOPTED 02/15/2019!
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?
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.

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.
Rhee
ADOPTED 02/10/2019!
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?
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!
Trooper
ADOPTED 02/09/2019!
Good With Kids: Unknown

Trooper was picked up as a stray by Animal Control. Upon being found he had numerous abrasions and gashes on his legs. He was seen by the vet immediately, had his wounds cleaned and sutured. He is still healing from whatever caused his injuries, but is healing well. Trooper is need of a strong handler, someone that will set rules and provide structure. Training is needed, as he needs to learn manners and good dog behavior. Trooper can be spooked by things he is not familiar with so ongoing socialization is important.
Unfortunately, Trooper tested heartworm positive when seen by MAGSR's vet. This could have been avoided had he been kept on monthly heartworm preventatives. Trooper is in the beginning stages of his heartworm treatment, which of course MAGSR will pay for his entire treatment. Treatment is expensive, but Trooper is certainly worth the cost. Donations towards his treatment would be greatly appreciated, this would also help us save other dogs with medical needs. He will have to take it slow for the next few months while he undergoes treatment, so lots of rest will be in order.
Updates:Trooper is one resilient and incredibly special guy. He was welcomed into the MAGSR family, as so many are, with very little information about where he came from or what he had been through. Although Trooper took a little time to adjust to a life of comfort, regular food, and stability, he seems to have discovered that things are improving every day. Trooper has already come a long way in the short time he has been with MAGSR. He has begun to learn basic commands such as sit, down, stay, and wait. His heel is coming along and only requires a few reminders that leaning in is better done when hanging out and not when walking on leash. As training is a requirement for all dogs, Trooper will be top of the class.
A perfect companion in the car, Trooper either lays down or quietly watches from his seat. He is good about getting into and out of the car. Having recently moved into a foster home, Trooper is now learning the ins and out of living in a home. Although cautious at first, Trooper seems to be taking this new set of changes in stride. He is learning about the joys of having his own bones, a comfortable place to sleep, and how to navigate slippery wood floors. Trooper is also developing an understanding of crate training and housebreaking. This is important as he will need to be on crate rest during his heart worm treatment. If Trooper sounds like a good match for your household, please inquire about him today.
Seth

Seth was abandoned by his person at a friends home and never returned for him. He is understandably confused with the recent changes in his life causing some anxiety. He lived with a female GSD and was around cats without issues. He did live with children but did not have much interaction with them, so we do not know how he would do with children. We are giving him time to settle in and will post updates once we know him better.
