We don’t know if it’s ‘Maybelline’ or maybe it's MAGSR, but this ‘Beautiful Basha’ (or Rose from the Golden Girls) doesn’t look or act her age!  It’s clear she was well taken care of, but unfortunately an abrupt change with her previous owner's living situation has left her as an owner-surrender. It was a heartbreaking decision, but the couple knew bringing her to MAGSR would give her the best chance at living out her golden years, (much like Rose) in a loving home.

As we get to really know Basha, she is somewhat bashful, but still very active, working-line, almost 11 year old beauty.  It’s really difficult to believe she’s almost 11! She has the agility and energy to leap a 2’ hurdle to chase a squirrel out of your yard for absolute protection!  Basha’s foster reports she is unfortunately struggling with her new living situation and will need some time to decompress and realize she is safe and will be loved and taken care of, much like the final episodes of the Golden Girls. 

Since Basha comes from a working-line of GSD’s, she is well trained and knows a number of tricks, but is probably up to learning a few more.  This will help fulfill her need for both physical and mental stimulation.  Because she has a high prey drive, it’s probably best she is placed either in a home without cats, or with one that is a dog-savvy cat.

Basha is absolutely eager to find the right FUR-ever family, and would really thrive in an environment where she is provided the basic necessities of a senior, working-line puppy-at-heart -  training, structure, boundaries, routines, and continued guidance.  

If ‘Beautiful Basha’/ “Golden-Girl Basha’’ sounds like the golden era you would like to chat about life with, please ask to add her to your family today!

Our newest babies - Sam, Ellie, Carlton, Blue, and Eugene - were found too small and without a mommy. Babies really need to be with mom until at least eight weeks. This gives them a chance to access the nutrition, love, and social foundation needed to meet with success. As luck would have it, a dog in the area, Madison, was having a hysterical pregnancy and was ready to step in and help these babies in need. Madison did an incredible job fostering her babies and taught them everything she could before sending them on their way to their adoptive families. We will forever be grateful to Madison and her human mom for stepping in and making miracles happen. 

All five babies have been well-loved and cared for. Over time, they have developed their own special personalities. Sam (also lovingly known as Dippy) was the runt of the litter. She is the floppiest of the group. She is sweet, affectionate, and talkative. She will easily fill her forever home with giggles and joy. Although Sam is a love, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your world with endless puppy antics. With time, patience, and training, Sam will develop into the good canine citizen we know she is destined to become. If this floppy little girl sounds like the right match for your family. Ask to meet her today!
