Description

Hank came to us from a shelter where he was ended up for going after chickens and goats, so a home without livestock is best for Hank. He is a friendly boy and good with children.  He also gets along well with other dogs.  Hank is in a foster home enjoying a warm comfy bed, exercise and of course lots of love and care. 

Updates:
Hank is a wonderful dog and very friendly and laid back.  Sadly, sweet Hank tested heartworm positive when seen by a MAGSR vet.  He obviously was not kept on monthly Heartworm Preventatives which would have protected him.  MAGSR will make sure Hank gets the treatment he needs to rid his body of Heartworms so that he may enjoy many more years of life.  Treatment is expensive but Hank is certainly worth the cost.  Donations towards his treatment would be greatly appreciated – this would also help us save other dogs with medical needs.

Description

Bella's owners could not care for her appropriately and she spent most of her young life in a crate but all that has changed now that she is in the rescue living with a foster.  She is a puppy in every sense of the way in that she has boundless energy and is very inquisitive.  She loves to cuddle, give puppy kisses, and play with squeaky toys.   She will need work on her leash manners but she corrects easily and wants to please.  She is very much a lap dog and just wants to be close to her people at all times.  Bella gets along with dogs and kids and is just the happiest girl when given love and attention. She enjoys car rides so long as she can look out the window : )  Bella is ready find her forever home, could that be you?

Description

This young handsome boy landed in a shelter and we have no idea why.  He is 7 months old, full of energy and puppy behaviors.  He is in need of training as he is lacking manners and has so much to learn.  With training, structure and guidance from his new family he will learn to be a well mannered boy.  It is obvious whoever had him for his first months of life did not take the time to teach him.  If you are looking for a young, playful, willing to learn boy and have the time to commit to ongoing training ask to meet Hoss.

History: Shelter

Description

McGregor made his way to us from a shelter where he had been taken in as a stray.  We have no information about his past but our volunteers are getting to know him better.  He may be 5 years old but he has the energy of a younger dog.  He does require training as it's obvious that no one ever spent time with him teaching much.  With guidance, training and consistency he will learn what is acceptable but he needs a family to help him learn.

Description

Briggs was surrendered to a shelter by his former family as he may have EPI, which is easily treatable.  They had planned on breeding him with their female Shepherds, thankfully that will not happen now.  With so many unwanted dogs in shelters we did not need more to add to those that die everyday.  We will be having Briggs tested for EPI and should he have it he will be started on enzymes, it's that simple.  He is such a friendly boy who thinks he is a lap dog.  He is good with other dogs.  Watch for updates.

Updates:
Briggs is a wonderful dog and very friendly and affectionate – he just wants his human to love and pet him.  Sadly, sweet Briggs tested heartworm positive when seen by a MAGSR vet.  He obviously was not kept on monthly Heartworm Preventatives which would have protected him.  MAGSR will make sure Briggs gets the treatment he needs to rid his body of Heartworms so that he may enjoy many more years of life.  Treatment is expensive but Briggs is certainly worth the cost.  Donations towards his treatment would be greatly appreciated, this would also help us save other dogs with medical needs , MAGSR has tested Briggs and he has Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI), which can be very well controlled with proper nutrition and adding enzymes to his food which helps with digestion. More information can be found at epi4dogs.com along with before and after pictures of dogs that have EPI. , From time to time you come across a dog whose outgoing and playful personality simply warms your heart. Briggs is that dog. An impressive and lovable boy, Briggs simply wants to be a member of the family. Since coming into his foster home, we have discovered that Briggs is very well behaved in his crate, loves toys, and takes every opportunity he can get to snuggle in for attention. At this time Briggs knows a few commands - come, sit, and paw. He clearly likes to please and will be the star of the class when it comes to training.    Although Briggs has a few restrictions at this time due to his heart worm treatment, he is a great patient and does not seem phased by these restrictions. As his body heals, Briggs will definitely enjoy playing with toys and socializing regularly. Briggs would love nothing more than a forever home that will provide him with the training, exercise, and love this special guy deserves. If Briggs sounds like a good match for your family, please contact your adoptions coordinator today.
