Prancer
ADOPTED 12/12/2022!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
MAGSR received a call from another local rescue that a large group of puppies were in need of placement as soon as possible. In total there were 21 pups who would need rescue placement. As this was too many puppies for one group to support, the hope was that we could work together to get everyone into safe and loving homes. With 8 pups finding safety with the other rescue, our team began working together to see if we could find loving foster homes for the remaining 13. Although this was a rather large undertaking, team MAGSR worked quickly to put everything in place. The "Christmas Puppies" - Rudolph, Hermy, Yukon, Clarice, Moonracer, Donner, Vixen, Claus, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Comet, and Cupid - have arrived and are hoping to find forever homes for the holidays.
Having been born in what appears to be less than ideal situations, the "Christmas Puppies" arrived having missed out on early vetting, exposure to new environments, and socialization with people outside their immediate caregivers. Now that they are living with MAGSR foster families, their opportunities are endless. All 13 puppies are going to see our amazing vetting partners so that we can begin vaccinations and make sure that everyone is healthy. In their foster homes, these puppies are learning about toys, treats, regular meals, and the comfort of soft, warm beds. They are also beginning the important process of learning the ins and outs of living in a home. As very intelligent pups everyone is excited to begin. As they move forward, it is critical that their new families provide the "Christmas puppies" with regular socialization with people and other animals. A well socialized pup will become a stable adult. Although these babies are absolutely adorable, please remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your home with endless puppy antics. With time, training, patience, and socialization, they will develop into good canine citizens. If you are interested in welcoming a member of the "Christmas puppy" litter into your household, ask to meet them today!
Updates:Prancer has taken some time to overcome her rough start and start to take comfort in the people around her. As such, she is slower to warm up to new people but with patience, some ear scratches, treats and toys, you're rewarded with a sweet and comical companion! Prancer has excellent toy and ball drive and would be a great candidate for dog sports (FAST Cat or lure coursing anybody?). Not only does she have the drive itself but she is already perfecting her retrieval and "out"!when motivated with a great toy, she really has no fear and will show off her athleticisim, climbing, jumping and running over or into anything! She does great with another well adjusted dog to learn from-- she tends to blossom when she is with another dog who enjoys her company. She is very respectful of other dogs cues, but definitely appreciates a dog who wants to rough house with her. She does well with dog savvy cats but will chase if they run, so that is a work in progress for any family with feline companions. With a large amount of malinois in her lineage, she learns very fast and loves to have opportunities to work her brain and she has high energy levels that allow her to be an excellent play and exercise companion.

Updates:Claus's brother, Rudolph, joined the rescue with some unexpected medical needs that have required extra support. He could really use your help.
Working closely with our amazing veterinary teams, Rudolph has begun seeing his regular vet to address typical puppy vetting needs as well as a specialist to address concerns about a preputial defect. Although it is unknown if this condition was congenital or trauma based, Rudolph needs a contrast study and preputial reconstruction in order to correct the defect and help him move forward. When combining Rudolph's presurgical care, surgical consult, contrast study, and surgical reconstruction, his care will cost more than four-thousand dollars. Having been a very good puppy throughout this process, we know that Santa has Rudolph on the top of his "nice" list and is working on finding him the perfect forever family. With surgery scheduled in early December, Rudolph is hoping to be healed for the holidays. Rudolph's care is very expensive, but we know that this special guy is worth the cost. Please consider supporting Rudolph for the holidays and donate to his care. Not only will your support help us get this little lovebug the help that he needs to move forward, but it will also help us continue to support other dogs with medical needs.
Ada
ADOPTED 12/10/2022!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Ada and her buddy, Amelia, found themselves in a tough situation when their owner got into some trouble and the girls were confiscated. Although they were brought to a shelter where they waited for a forever family that would help them move forward, the girls were not one of the lucky ones that found a home. Staff members adored these girls and kept hoping to find them homes; however, with overcrowding at the shelter and no options available, the girls were placed on the euthanasia list. A final plea went out for help. Fortunately, this plea reached MAGSR. With no time to spare, we immediately stepped up and welcomed both girls into the family.
Ada and Amelia are incredibly sweet girls. Ada has done very well with new people and children. However, she can be a little shy at first and would prefer a family that will be patient as she gains confidence. Ada is looking for a forever family that will provide her with the structure, routine, and leadership that all GSDs crave. Clearly well socialized with other dogs, Ada seems to understand the ins and outs of the doggy world. Although we know that Ada is a love, we do not know anything about her past. As a result, she may need a little patience in her forever home learning the ins and outs of being part of a family. Training will go a long way with Ada. Not only will training help her develop a strong and healthy bond with her forever family, but it will also help her grow into a stable and confident canine citizen. Ada is looking for a forever family that will commit to her for a lifetime. Could that be with you?

Sir Axyl
ADOPTED 12/05/2022!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Sir Axyl was picked up as a stray and brought to a shelter. Although he was adopted out quickly, he was found running loose in a neighboring town a few months later. Based upon his condition, Sir Axyl had not been treated well. He was emaciated, missing fur, and in sad condition. Recognizing that Sir Axyl deserved to find a forever family that would love and care for him the way he deserved, the shelter began looking for a breed specific rescue that would find Sir Axyl the perfect placement. When we heard about his story, we knew that we needed to help. Team MAGSR immediately began putting plans together to welcome this sweet boy to the family.
Sir Axyl is one of the dogs who makes the world a happier place. He is stable, friendly, and loves everyone. Good with people of all ages, Sir Axyl enjoys the company of his people especially when they are open to a few snuggles. Good with other dogs, Sir Axyl is patient and friendly. Although we do not know anything about his past, we do know that Sir Axyl has known love and kindness at some point in his life and deserves so much more. Having the benefit of living in a foster home, Sir Axyl loves a warm bed and regular meals. He is housebroken and seems to understand many of the rules of a household. However, he will need time to adjust to his forever home. Already knowing a few commands, Sir Axyl is a rockstar on leash. However, further training is essential. Training will not only help Sir Axyl further develop his skills, but it will also help him build a strong and healthy relationship with his forever family. If Sir Axyl sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet him today!
