ADOPTED 08/17/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes

Farrah came to us from a local shelter. The shelter staff told us that she was very sweet and wow, were they right! Once she warms up to you, she will give little kisses. Though Farrah is a little timid in the noisy kennel environment, she is still pretty outgoing even after all the change she has been through recently. She doesn't appear to have been taught any commands. But she is quick to learn and is very inquisitive about what is expected of her and what she is being exposed to. Farrah rides quietly in a vehicle once she jumps in. She doesn't seem to understand what toys are about which is kind of sad. But we are confident she will learn in no time. She also met an adolescent boy today while we at the shelter and she was fine with him. Again, she was curious; just taking in the world around her. Though she is estimated to be approximately 4 years old, in some ways she acts much younger and somewhat puppy-like at times.
She was introduced to two MAGSR alums today; Snowy (seen receiving kisses from Farrah) and Karma (smaller white and cream mix) and she really liked both of them. She was very comfortable around both and she would do well in a home with a well mannered dog who she can learn from.
Updates:Farrah has settled nicely into her foster home. She really is just the sweetest thing! She is working on house training, but she isn't there quite yet. She is still a little shy when first meeting new people, but will warm up quickly. She is so eager to please and is very smart- she is coming along nicely with basic commands. She is now comfortable with cars and will jump right in, then rides nicely in them. She knows what toys are now and is a chewer! But she won't chew on anything that isn't hers. She has excellent house manners and isn't destructive at all! She would do great in a house with another dog to keep her company. She is just an absolute sweetheart and don't miss the opportunity to meet her!
Woodrow
ADOPTED 08/13/2017!
Good With Kids: Unknown

Woodrow along with his brother Luther have not had the best of care, but through their years of neglect they have been best buddies and the one constant in their lives. These boys are very bonded and would not do well separated, they must be adopted as a pair. The boys are settling into their foster home together and experiencing a life of love and comfort that they so deserve.
Woodrow is about 30 lbs underweight, he also is missing fur with sores on his body which the vet feels is caused by a Flea infestation which caused dermatitis. He is now receiving the care and nutrition he so desperately deserves and is under the care of our vet. We think he is very handsome and will only be even more so once his fur grows back and he gains some much needed weight.

Luther is stunning, although his coat and skin are dry at this time the good nutrition he is now receiving will make a big difference.
Magda
ADOPTED 08/13/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes

Magda came to us from a shelter so we have no information about her past. We do know that she is a sweet, friendly girl looking to the future with her new family. She needs to put on some weight, with good nutrition it will also help with her dry skin. Watch for updates from her foster family.
Updates:Magda is a pretty sweet shepherd, who is doing well in her foster home. She calmly submitted to a bath that she did not enjoy and sat nicely to have her fur and teeth brushed. Magda is gentle with children and interested in playing with other dogs. She stays close to her people and seems unfazed by the ruckus of young kids. She is not accustomed to stairs and needs a little encouragement to walk down them. Magda will put her paws on the counter to look for snacks, but she listens to "leave it." She does not seem food aggressive and rides nicely in the car. She rode well in a crate in the car, but hasn't been left alone yet. Magda has not had any accidents in the house, but she has been supervised on a leash a all times since coming home.
Grisham
ADOPTED 08/12/2017!
Good With Kids: Yes

Grisham is a friendly boy with lots of puppy energy, at only 1 yr he is still a puppy. Training will go along way in helping him learn good manners and create a bond with his new family. Young dogs need a lot of attention and guidance, so please be sure you are able to commit to Grisham for the rest of his life.
Updates:Grisham is a very sweet and good-natured young dog. He has been living in his foster home for a couple weeks now, and has settled in wonderfully. He is very well adjusted to his crate, has proven he is housebroken, and gets along splendidly with the two older resident dogs. He is coming along very well with some of his obedience commands, and has a good sit and down, and has really made great progress on his leash manners. He meets new dogs easily and well with proper introductions, keeping in mind he is still pretty young and puppyish, so may be a little “over the top” for some older and more reserved dogs. As a young dog he has boatloads of energy, and loves to run and play in the yard, and go biking with his foster dad. He is happy to meet all people, young and old, and loves to curl up at your feet and hang out (once he’s burned his puppy energy off!). Grisham may be a bit stubborn sometimes when he is uncertain about what is going on – for example he wasn’t going anywhere near the vacuum cleaner the first time he met one. But he is very handsome and charming young GSD mix that is very upbeat and eager to please. Please ask to meet Grisham if he sounds like the dog for you!
