Adopted MAGSR Dogs

Unfortunately, Rex tested heartworm positive when seen by MAGSR's vet. This could have been avoided had he been kept on monthly heartworm preventatives. Rex is in the beginning stages of his heartworm treatment, which of course MAGSR will pay for his entire treatment. Treatment is expensive, but Rex 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. , Rex is slowly settling in to his foster home. This sweet boy must have had a very hard past because he’s just so confused in a home. He enjoys watching out the window and taking naps with his foster mom. Poor Rex is so scared of the steps and of the kitchen, but his foster mom is working with him to help him gain some confidence with that. Rex does well going into his crate, which is good because he will require crate restriction during his heartworm treatment. Rex is affectionate and enjoys attention from his human – he just wants someone to love him. Rex is a quiet dog and needs a quiet and more calm home life so he can continue to build confidence and learn to trust humans again. If you’re willing to be patient and give Rex a chance, please ask to meet him today. , Hello, my name is Rex! I’m adjusting to my foster home. I’ve been through quite a lot since Hurricane Florence in North Carolina. My foster Mom thinks I’m real handsome and calls me Sir Rex Harrison sometimes. I love the attention I get from my foster parents and the resident dog. I’m relaxing and becoming myself. I was trained not to go into the kitchen and not allowed upstairs. A few times my foster Mom has taken me into the kitchen and upstairs but I’d rather not go there. My foster Mom realizes it’s not so bad. I like to wait at kitchen door and never get underfoot! I don’t get on furniture, no jumping up and I’m happy to retreat to my crate during the day for naps and to sleep at night. I like hanging out, going for walks and enjoy having treats for learning to sit. I was very excited when I first got here and had a problem with submissive peeing. I'm much better now, although due to heartworm treatment I’m on prednizone and really thirsty. My treatment is just starting. Thankfully, MAGSR is good to take care of the heartworm treatment for whomever adopts me. My foster parents are working to build up my confidence. In the meantime, I’m hoping for a forever home with gentle folks who can appreciate my good looks and charm. , Rex is doing great in his foster home. Rex has overcome his shyness and wants to play with the resident dog so badly, but is still on activity restriction until the end of his heartworm treatment so he's not allowed to run & jump yet. Rex walks well on the lead and doesn't pull and sits on command. Rex does well in the crate and is housebroken. He likes his neighbors and all of the dogs in the neighborhood. Rex is doing great but is still waiting for his fur-ever home - could that home be yours?
