Adopted MAGSR Dogs

Delgado has had himself a rough time, he found himself at the shelter. One day he got adopted but shortly thereafter he found himself on the streets again and in another shelter.

Delgado is a sweet boy who loves zooming around and playing ball, he needs some manners but knows many commands. He received a gold star at the vet for his behavior! If you are interested in giving this boy his final forever home, ask to meet him today!!

T-Rex was found wandering the wilds of the south and was on the edge of extinction before a kind samaritan found this poor fella!  We don’t know a lot about him, but as we do get to know T-Rex, we are discovering that despite his poor health and emaciation (2/9 body scale), he has a very sweet demeanor and really likes everyone he meets! T-Rex is thought to be around 3 years old and is likely housebroken, but will definitely need training to ensure he learns proper manners and can be the best GSD he can be. 

Given T-Rex’s past, he is eager to find the right FUR-ever family that is willing to give him extra love, time and obviously food so he can fully recover from his not so dino-mite past.  T-Rex would really thrive in an environment where he is provided the basic necessities of a true GSD/furry family member -  training, structure, boundaries, routines, and continued guidance.  

If T-Rex sounds like the adventure you would like to emBARK upon, please ask to add him to your family today!

Description: Martin’s story is one of confusion and heartache. He was ‘raised’ somewhere in Louisiana with 10 other dogs, but these poor pups were neglected and left to live a life outside, (occasionally inside), without consistent and proper care.  After a wellness check, animal control negotiated to take Martin in hopes of providing him with a better life.  When MAGSR heard about Martin, we stepped up to save this sweet, and incredibly fluffy, boy.  Despite his rocky past, he has an incredibly sweet disposition displaying love and gratitude.  Oh, and did we mention adorably fluffy?

As we get to know him through his foster family, he appears to be well mannered, and house broken.  Martin doesn't mind short periods of time in the crate, as long as he can see you or other dogs.  His foster family is waiting to introduce him to the resident cats until he is able to decompress a little and understand he is safe, loved and will be cared for.  Martin enjoyed his day at the spa, and relished in the newly found attention a good cleansing bath gave him. His foster family did notice he wasn’t confident in stairs, so this would be something to work towards in his forever home.

Martin will need time to decompress and fully understand he will be living indoors with a family that will properly love and care for him.  He is eager to please, but will need to be properly trained in order to shine bright and show what a well mannered ‘Southern Boy’ can add to the right family. He will thrive in a home and environment where he will be provided the basic necessities -  training, structure, boundaries, routines, and continued guidance.  

If you think you would like to add some ‘Southern Charm’ to your household, please ask to add Martin to your family today!

Jerry Lee is a victim of cruelty and neglect.  He was confiscated and charges were brought against his owner. Jerry Lee has moved on from his horrible past and is looking ahead to the future. Jerry Lee is a young, energetic, intelligent guy. He is looking for an active household that will provide him with the clear structure and routine that all shepherds need. Consistency and leadership are essential to developing stable and confident adult German shepherd. Coming from a situation with little opportunity for affection or interaction with the world around him, Jerry Lee is learning about the smells, sounds, and sites around him. He can be a little timid at first; however, patience and confidence go a long way with him. As is true of all young dogs, Jerry Lee will need daily exercise for both his mind and his body. This will help him develop the ability to handle new people and situations in a calm and composed manner, as well as help him develop a healthy mindset. Continued socialization is also critical for Jerry Lee as he has spent his first year with limited interactions. Providing Jerry Lee with opportunities to interact with people and other animals in a controlled manner will help him develop essential skills that could not be established while chained up. Training will be an essential piece of this process, as it will not only help Jerry Lee learn to develop a healthy bond with his family, but it will also help him develop the skills needed to be a good canine citizen. Fortunately, Jerry Lee has already learned many of his basic commands. Further practice will help him develop the stability needed to meet with success. It is important that his new family understands the needs of the breed. If Jerry Lee sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today.

Unfortunately, we have learned that Jerry Lee is HW positive. This could have easily been avoided with a monthly heart worm preventative. Jerry Lee's treatment has begun. However, he will need a few months to complete the entirety of his treatment. Although heart worm treatment is expensive, MAGSR will cover the entire cost of Jerry Lee's medical treatment. Please consider donating to Jerry Lee's care as it will not only help him continue to move forward, but it will also help us continue to welcome dogs with medical needs. Jerry Lee is looking for a forever family that will cherish him for a lifetime. If this lovable guy sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today!

Nala and her buddy, Zoe, were surrendered to a local shelter, as their owner was not keeping them from wandering in their community. Having landed in an overcrowded shelter, both girls were living on borrowed time. Fortunately, shelter staff recognized that these girls were special and began networking them in the hopes that they would find rescue placement. When we learned about their potential fate, team MAGSR stepped in to ensure that both girls could move forward safely. We are thrilled to have been able to welcome them to MAGSR. 

Nala is incredibly sweet and good natured with everyone she meets. Clearly well-socialized with people, Nala is affectionate and playful. Still a young girl, Nala will thrive in a household that provides her with the structure, routine, and leadership that all shepherds crave. Although she has done well with other dogs, Nala does have a high-prey drive. As a result, she is not a good match for households with small animals or free range farm animals.  Having previously lived in a home, Nala does know many of the ins and outs of living in a household. However, as is true of any new family member, Nala will need time to adjust to the routines and expectations of her forever family. Given opportunities to meet with success, Nala will rise to the occasion. As Nala moves forward, training will be critical to her success. Training will provide Nala with the foundational skills needed to develop into a stable and confident canine citizen. It will also give her the opportunity to develop a healthy and trusting relationship with her forever family. Nala is looking for an active household that will cherish her for a lifetime. Could that be with you?
