MAGSR Females Available for Adoption

Cleo Grace’s journey hasn’t been easy. She was found as a stray and brought to a local shelter, carrying the weight of a difficult past. Her ears tell part of her story—one bears the scars of chronic infection, and the other shows signs of fly strikes. But while her body carries reminders of hardship, her heart is ready for healing.

Cleo Grace is like a little seed waiting to blossom. At first, she can be shy and unsure, but once she feels safe, she leans in close and buries her head into her handler’s chest—her way of saying “thank you for keeping me safe.”

Because new experiences can overwhelm her, Cleo Grace will do best in a quiet, calm home with patient adopters who can offer gentle guidance, structure, and consistency. Keeping her safe and secure will be a top priority, as she is still considered a high flight risk due to her past. With time, trust, and encouragement, she will thrive.

She will soon begin a confidence-building training program with our rescue, where she’ll learn that people can be trusted and life can be joyful. Cleo Grace is safe now, surrounded by love and support, and we’re committed to giving her every chance to succeed.

All she needs is her forever family—the one who will nurture her, help her bloom, and finally give her the happy ending she deserves.

This lovely lady found herself in the care of a rescue determined to place her in a safe and loving home. That rescue later reached out for help with some of the dogs in their care, and as we all know, teamwork makes the dream work, so MAGSR didn't think twice before stepping forward to assist.

Cloud is the kind of dog who leaves an impression you won’t soon forget. With her kind eyes, sweet spirit, and gentle way of moving through the world, it’s hard not to fall in love. A sensitive soul at heart, Cloud has been through a lot and responds best to slow, soft introductions and a gentle, patient handler - someone who understands that dogs who’ve had a tough past deserve the time and space to build trust. She’ll likely need a little more decompression time than most dogs when settling into a new space, but the rewards of her trust are well worth the wait. Given that a calmer, more consistent environment will help set her up for success, this sweetheart may struggle around little kids. A charming companion, Cloud gets along well with cats and other dogs; she prefers large male dogs whose steady presence helps her feel more secure.

While she might take a moment to settle in with new people and surroundings, this affectionate girl warms up more quickly when there are treats involved. When she opens up, her bright, playful personality emerges, revealing a funny, friendly pup who’s eager to connect and explore. Whip-smart and athletic, Cloud has amazing potential, with the right guidance and continued training. Not only will additional training allow her to fine-tune her manners, it will also allow her to build and strengthen a bond with her forever family. If you’re someone who values a pup with depth, sweetness, and just the right dash of playfulness, Cloud might be your perfect match. To witness her quiet, endearing magic in person, ask to meet her today.

Elegant Everest was picked up as a stray in the South and brought to a local shelter, where staff patiently waited for her family to come claim her. Sadly, like so many others, Everest wasn’t one of the lucky pups who got to go home. When no one stepped forward, shelter staff began searching for the right placement, and for a moment it seemed Everest had finally found her forever family. But within two weeks, she was back—confused, heartbroken, and unsure what had gone wrong. Knowing Everest deserved a family who would truly commit to her, shelter staff reached out to breed-specific rescues for help. When our team learned she needed a safe option to move forward, we knew the MAGSR family was the right fit.

Everest is a friendly, sensitive girl who has bounced around more than any dog should. She adores being near her people and is wonderfully attentive, but her past experiences have left her a bit timid during introductions. Give her a little time, patience, and a few tasty treats, and her warm, affectionate personality begins to shine. While much of her past is unknown, it’s clear someone invested in her early socialization. Everest is unbothered by the other dogs in her foster home and enjoys being near both people and animals. She reads canine cues well and thrives in a pack environment. Already housebroken and crate trained, she has a solid start on the basics of living in a home. As with any newcomer, she’ll need time to adjust to her forever family’s routines, but she is eager to learn and aims to please.

Everest is highly food-motivated and loves both treats and praise. She sits politely when asked and is beginning to learn additional basic commands. Continued training will be essential to her confidence and success. It will also help Everest develop a healthy bond with her forever family. Medically, Everest arrived heartworm positive—a completely preventable condition had she been given proper monthly prevention. Thankfully, the diagnosis was made early, her treatment is underway, and she’s handling it with grace. She seems to understand that with just a bit more time and patience, she’ll be ready for a fresh start.

Everest is searching for a family that enjoys daily exercise, playtime, and the companionship of a truly special dog. If this stunning girl sounds like the perfect match for your home, ask to meet her today!

Meet gorgeous Glacier from the Winter Litter! This adorable baby girl is ready to find her match. The **Winter Litter—Tundra, Glacier, and Frosty—**joined the MAGSR family a few weeks ago after being rescued from a local cruelty and neglect situation. An advocate reached out to local law enforcement after discovering these puppies were living in conditions that were simply unimaginable. When they arrived, all three were severely emaciated, full of worms, missing patches of fur, and understandably unsure of new people. They urgently needed rescue placement to begin their journey toward safety and healing. Thanks to our incredible foster families, prescribed medications, structured feeding schedules, and strong veterinary support, all three puppies were welcomed into the safety of the MAGSR family.

Glacier is a delightful, playful, and smart young pup who thrives when both her mind and body are exercised on a daily basis. Like many puppies who lacked early structure, Glacier has benefited greatly from an experienced foster home that has begun teaching her the ins and outs of living in a loving home environment. Crate training and housebreaking were first on the list, and Glacier has been doing a wonderful job learning these important skills.

Living in an established pack has also given Glacier the opportunity to learn appropriate social skills and understand pack structure—an essential foundation for her long-term success. With a strong desire to please her people, Glacier has begun learning basic expectations. Continued training and consistent opportunities to learn will help her grow into a confident, well-rounded canine citizen. While Glacier is undeniably cute, it’s important to remember that puppies are a lot of work. They will whine, chew, have accidents, and fill your home with endless puppy antics. With patience, consistency, and training, Glacier has all the potential to mature into a stable, confident adult dog.

If this beautiful girl sounds like the perfect match for your family, ask to meet Glacier today!

Not every dog gets to spend their life curled up on a couch, showered with affection, and surrounded by family. Ivy’s story is a reminder of just how resilient dogs can be — even when life hasn't always been as kind as you may hope.

Though Ivy has known human kindness, she has never known the comfort of a true home until now. She came to MAGSR having never lived in a home, yet her soulful eyes and calm presence speak of a dog who still believes in love. Physically, Ivy carries the weight of a life spent giving more than she received. Her body shows signs of many litters, untreated medical conditions, and severe arthritis. When her pain became too much to ignore, a decision was made to give Ivy the care she so desperately needed — and she joined the MAGSR family.

One of our amazing senior foster families immediately stepped up, giving Ivy her very first taste of home: a comfortable household, soft beds, quiet spaces, and unconditional love. Despite her past, Ivy is gentle, affectionate, and slowly learning the joys of being a beloved companion. She enjoys short walks, tasty treats, and has recently discovered the magic of dog beds.

But Ivy's journey is far from over. Upon arrival, she was diagnosed with:

• Severe arthritis in her front left leg, causing her significant pain and lameness
• A skin infection requiring treatment before other procedures could take place
• Ulcerated tumors and masses on her chest and belly
• Underweight frame, which needed to be addressed before surgery could commence

This week, Ivy bravely underwent a complicated hysterectomy, had several masses removed, and began treatment to address her discomfort. Radiographs of her joins and chest were taken to determine the extent of her needs. Consultations with specialists also took place. At this time biopsy results are pending, and more invasive care may be needed. Despite everything, Ivy remains calm, loving, and endlessly patient — a true testament to her spirit. She is wearing her surgical pajamas like a champ, is adjusting to the cone and pro collar, and has been very patient when going through daily clean up and care. Ivy isn’t available for adoption just yet, but she will be — once she’s strong, healthy, and ready for the next chapter of her life.

Ivy’s care is ongoing and expensive. If you’re touched by her story, please consider making a donation toward her medical expenses. Every dollar helps us continue to care for dogs like Ivy — the ones who’ve waited too long for a family of their own and are finally getting their chance. Donations can be made at magsr.org. Thank you in advance for joining us in believing in second chances.

Ivy is an exceptional girl who we know is worth every dime. 

Some dogs are passed around far too many times in their young lives, and sweet Kieko is one of them. At just five months old, she has already experienced more transitions than any puppy should. Each time she began to settle in, another change followed. Fortunately, her most recent owner recognized that Kieko deserved stability and made the thoughtful decision to surrender her to a local shelter only two weeks after bringing her home. Knowing Kieko needed a permanent, supportive placement, shelter staff reached out to MAGSR for help. We knew this adorable little lady would thrive in rescue, and thanks to an incredible foster family stepping forward, Kieko officially joined the MAGSR family.

In many ways, Kieko is your typical young German Shepherd puppy—curious, energetic, and eager to explore the world around her. She has previously lived with other dogs and cats; however, her prey drive is a bit too strong for feline friends, so a cat-free home will be best for her moving forward. While we don’t know much about her early history, it’s clear that someone invested time in giving Kieko a solid socialization foundation. She enjoys people and happily cuddles up for affection.

Because of the many changes she has experienced early in life, Kieko will need time to adjust and settle into her forever home. With patience, consistency, and continued training, she will absolutely thrive. Kieko already walks well on leash and knows several basic cues, including sit, stay, paw, and down. Like many puppies, she’s still learning appropriate manners and can be a bit enthusiastic, especially when it comes to keeping all four paws on the floor. This is a normal puppy behavior that will improve with clear expectations, structure, and training. Overall, Kieko is a joyful, affectionate puppy who loves to run, play, and soak up attention from her people.

While Kieko is beyond delightful, it’s important to remember that she is still a puppy. Puppies will whine, chew, have accidents, and bring plenty of playful chaos along with them. Structure, routine, training, and continued socialization will be the keys to Kieko’s long-term success. If this little lady sounds like the right match for your family, please ask to meet her today!

Kya is a stunning young female German Shepherd who effortlessly turns heads wherever she goes. Having lived in a loving home since she was a puppy, Kya has a strong foundation and understands many of the ins and outs of living in a household. She is already housebroken and crate trained, making her transition into a new home much easier. However, as is true of all GSDs, she will need time, patience, and structure while she adjusts to her new household. 

Highly intelligent and full of drive, Kya is a dog who truly enjoys working and learning. Her family recognized her motivation early on and provided opportunities for socialization and training from a young age. As Kya matured, it became clear that she needed a home capable of meeting her higher-level needs—both mentally and physically. Kya thrives when she has a purpose and requires daily outlets to exercise her body and challenge her mind. Advanced training, agility, or a job of her own would be excellent fits for this talented girl.

Although her family adored her, they made the difficult and selfless decision to surrender Kya to MAGSR, knowing she needed more than they could provide. Kya is not a couch potato. She is seeking an active, experienced home that will embrace her energy, intelligence, and drive. This girl is incredibly handler-focused and reads her person well. With calm, consistent, and clear leadership, she truly excels. She will thrive in a home that provides structure, routine, and clear expectations, allowing her to reach her full potential.

Kya is ready to find a family of her very own—one that will appreciate her abilities and help her shine. If this lovely girl sounds like the right match for your home, please ask to meet her today!

Mavis is a joyful, energetic 6-month-old pup with a heart as big as her personality. Always ready to play, explore, and make new friends, she truly is the life of the party. From the moment shelter staff met her after she was picked up as a stray in the South, they knew Mavis was something special—a little spark of endless joy in an overcrowded shelter full of dogs needing help. Fearing she might be overlooked due to overcrowding, a plea was sent out for her. While many rescues were already overwhelmed, our team stepped forward with a plan, and Mavis walked out the shelter doors and into the MAGSR family.

With a solid social foundation already in place, Mavis has learned that many people are just as excited to say hello as she is. Continued socialization will be key to her success, as she benefits from positive experiences with new people, animals, and environments. She is a smart, curious girl who learns quickly and loves people of all sizes. Mavis adores kids and has a playful spirit, though—like most young pups—she is still learning her manners. With training, structure, and clear boundaries, she could be a wonderful companion for a child to grow up with and a true best friend.

Mavis does best with a calm, confident leader and often looks to her handler for reassurance, especially when encountering new sounds or situations. As a former stray, she can be a bit skittish at times, but with confidence-building and continued positive exposure, she continues to thrive and grow.

Thanks to time in a fantastic temporary foster home, we’ve learned that Mavis already has great house skills. She is housebroken, crate trained, and polite on leash. She takes care of business right away when outside and will sit patiently while waiting for her leash to be removed—though, as a young pup, she can get a little excited if it takes too long! Occasionally, the world is just a bit too exciting and she may dash suddenly on leash, but overall she is learning quickly. Mavis enjoys relaxing with her people and has a love-hate relationship with the TV—she likes to watch, but may react when animals or certain sounds appear. She’s incredibly affectionate and believes being a lap dog is a very serious job. Having been overcorrected in the past, Mavis may briefly retreat when told “no,” but she quickly bounces back, eager to give kisses and reassure herself that all is well.

Adopting Mavis means welcoming endless fun, affection, and loyalty into your home. She is ready to give her whole heart to a family who will help her continue to grow and feel safe—forever. Please consider giving Mavis the loving home she deserves, so she never has to worry about her safety again. 

Marvelous Maylee was found as a stray in the South and brought to a crowded shelter. Although it was clear she’d been well socialized with both people and other animals, no one ever came to claim her. With shepherds filling shelters and space running out, Maylee urgently needed a safe place to go. Thankfully, the staff saw how special she was and advocated for her. When we learned Maylee needed help and fast, our team stepped in to give this incredible girl the second chance she deserves.

Maylee is a smart, social, and eager-to-please young shepherd. Someone in her past clearly invested time in her—she’s treat-motivated, already knows several commands, and truly loves to work. Her ideal family will enjoy training and mental enrichment as much as she does. Like most shepherds, Maylee thrives when both her mind and body are exercised daily, which helps her feel confident, balanced, and happy. She’s very comfortable on leash and ready for any adventure: walks, hikes, or simply exploring the neighborhood. Maylee checks in with her handler often and takes direction beautifully. This is definitely a special little lady.

While we don’t know much about her past, we’re certain about her future: with patience, structure, and routine, Maylee will blossom. Training will not only help her continue developing good canine manners, but will also help her bond deeply with her new family. This is critical for all shepherds and Maylee deserves this opportunity to shine. Maylee is a truly wonderful girl looking for a family who will love her for a lifetime. If she sounds like your perfect match, ask to meet her today!

Lovely Moiraine was picked up as a stray with her pup and brought to a local shelter. Although both dogs were clearly well-socialized and friendly, they sat at the shelter without anyone stepping forward to claim them. Knowing that they were special dogs who would be most successful if placed with a breed specific rescue, the shelter reached out to MAGSR for help. They found the perfect placement for the pup but needed a home for Moiraine. Too many momma's get left behind far too often. Team MAGSR knew that we would find Moiraine the perfect placement and give this marevelous momma a loving home of her very own. Without a second thought, we welcomed Moiraine to the MAGSR family.

Moiraine is the picture of a true German Shepherd — intelligent, loyal, and devoted to her people. This beautiful mama dog embodies everything that makes the breed so special: she’s protective yet gentle, confident yet affectionate, and always eager to please. Since joining the MAGSR family, Moiraine has had the opportunity to socialize with a variety of people and has constantly impressed us with her social personality. She's a quick learner who will thrive with continued training, structure, and clear boundaries - the kind of dog who blossoms when given purpose and guidance. In fact, Moiraine has already begun to develop her basic obedience with one of our amazing training partners. She is developing leash manners and basic commands. Although we do not know much about Moiraine's past, we do know her future is bright!

After lovingly raising her puppies, Moiraine is ready to enjoy a home of her own where she can be the one getting all the attention.  With her classic Shepherd spirit and steady companionship, Moiraine will be a faithful, loving partner to someone who appreciates the brilliance and heart of this remarkable breed. If Moiraine sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet her today!

Not all mothers get to bring their babies into the world surrounded by love, safety, and comfort. Sadly, Moonlight and her nine puppies — affectionately known as the Island Litter — were found in a heartbreaking state: malnourished, filthy, flea-infested, and utterly neglected. Confiscated by animal control and placed in a shelter, this vulnerable family was at high risk. But thanks to the quick work of compassionate rescuers and foster volunteers, they were pulled to safety.

From the moment Moonlight arrived in foster care, her strength and sweetness shone through. Despite the suffering she endured, she remained attentive to her pups and incredibly responsive to her caregivers. With medical care, nutritious food, and gentle handling, Moonlight and her babies began to heal — body and soul.

Today, Moonlight is thriving. She is smart, alert, affectionate, and energetic — everything you’d expect from a classic German Shepherd. She’s always ready for a new adventure and loves interactive time with her people. Her resilient spirit, loyal nature, and engaging personality make her truly special. As a dog with drive, Moonlight loves toys and activity — but she also has a strong prey instinct. For that reason, she is not a candidate for a home with cats or other small animals. However, she is social with other dogs and may do well with a compatible canine companion.

To give Moonlight the best start in her new life, MAGSR has partnered with Mason Dixon K9 to help her build foundational obedience skills. She is currently working on her training, and continued structured training will be essential in helping her grow into the confident, well-balanced dog we know she can be. Her ideal family will provide guidance, consistency, and plenty of love.

Moonlight has already endured more than most dogs experience in a lifetime — and she’s come through with grace and heart. Now, she deserves the very best: a forever home filled with security, adventure, and unconditional love. Apply today to bring Moonlight home. Help her leave the past behind and step fully into the bright, joyful future she’s been waiting for.

Patsy Cline, like far too many dogs, was born without the resources or care she needed to thrive. She spent her puppyhood living outdoors with little consistency, guidance, or attention. As her brothers and sisters were placed into homes, Patsy was left behind. In time, another accidental litter arrived—the Country Puppies: Reba, Lainey, and Shaina. Born into the same circumstances, all four dogs ultimately found themselves in need of help. Recognizing that the puppies deserved a safer, healthier start, their owner made the responsible decision to surrender them to MAGSR. When our team visited the property to meet the Country Puppies, it quickly became clear that Patsy Cline needed help as well. At MAGSR, we don’t leave family behind—so we promised to move Patsy forward alongside her sisters.

Patsy is a friendly, social, and affectionate young girl. While she didn’t have the upbringing we would have hoped for, she is clearly made of something special and has done wonderfully with our volunteers. Arriving without prior veterinary care, Patsy has been spending her time getting caught up on all the important medical support she needed. A playful and interactive pup, Patsy enjoys social time and brings plenty of young-dog energy to everything she does. She is still learning the ins and outs of living in a home with structure, routine, and clear expectations, so her forever family should be prepared to give her time to adjust. With patience, consistency, and guidance, Patsy will absolutely thrive. Training will be especially important for Patsy—not only to help her learn good manners, but also to build a strong, healthy bond with her family and develop the skills needed to become a confident, well-rounded canine citizen.

Patsy Cline is a young, energetic, and loving girl searching for a forever family who will cherish her for a lifetime. If your family is looking for an absolute sweetheart who would love days filled with adventure and nights spent snuggled close, ask to meet Patsy today!

Reba, along with her sisters Lainey and Shaina, came from an accidental litter; one that we have affectionately named the Country Puppies. Born without the resources or care they needed, the girls spent their early days living outside without consistent attention or guidance. Recognizing that the puppies deserved a safer, healthier start, their owner made the responsible decision to surrender them to MAGSR. This gave each girl the chance to grow into a confident, stable adult with the support of a loving family.

Reba is a brave little sweetheart with a big heart and an even bigger desire for love. Despite her tough beginnings, she’s discovering just how wonderful the world can be—one cuddle, treat, and wagging tail at a time. Curious, affectionate, and eager to bond, she’s soaking up all the positive experiences she missed early on. Reba does have some natural alpha tendencies and can be opinionated. She has even attempted to herd the other two GSDs in her foster home. However, with time, patience, and consistent guidance, she is learning manners and basic commands. She’s dog-friendly and people-friendly, though cats may not be the best match for this lovely girl.

As adorable as she is, Reba is still very much a puppy. She will whine, have accidents, and keep you on your toes with endless puppy antics. But with training, routine, and plenty of opportunities to learn, Reba will grow into an amazing adult dog. Her foster family has been working hard to build a strong foundation of skills, and she’s ready to continue her journey with a family that can provide the structure, routine, and encouragement she needs to thrive. In return, Reba will bring joy, devotion, and that special rescue-dog gratitude that fills a home with love.

Reba is ready for her forever family—could it be you?

Regal Rory was originally welcomed to the MAGSR family as a puppy. She was one of the Baseball Puppies. Having lived with an amazing foster family, Rory had developed a good foundation of social skills and was adopted into a loving household. Although her family had every intention of loving Rory for a lifetime, when a family dynamic shifted, the decision was made that it was in Rory's best interest to return her to the MAGSR family. Surrendering a cherished member of the family is never a decision that is made lightly. Rory's family adored her; however, they knew that she would be more successful if placed in a different home. We know this was not easy for Rory's family, but we promised to find her an incredible match so that she can move forward and meet with success. 

In many ways still a puppy, Rory is young, energetic, and curious about the world around her. However, having left the home she expected to remain in for the rest of her life, she is a little unsure right now. Recognizing that Rory will need some time to decompress and adjust to new people and environments, our team is working with her to help her meet with success. Rory's new family will need to ensure that she is given time, patience, structure, and routine in her new household. This will help lovely Rory thrive. Once comfortable, Rory is a playful and loving girl. She enjoys toys and loves to learn new tricks. When playtime is finished, Rory is an expert cuddler. She is a great balance of joy and affection. Having lived in a loving home, Rory understands many of the ins and outs of living in a household. She is both housebroken and crate trained. However, as is true of all new dogs, she will need time to learn the specific expectations of her new family. Training will be beyond helpful for Rory. Not only will training help Rory build a strong bond with her forever family, but it will also help her develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. 

Rory is looking for a patient household that enjoys daily activities with a good cuddle session thrown in from time to time throughout the day. If this little love is the right match for your family, ask to meet Rory today!

Sweet Sage found herself in an incredibly tough situation in the South after being surrendered to an overcrowded shelter—one where many dogs step in but never get the chance to step back out due to a lack of space. Fate, however, had other plans. As Sage arrived, a local rescue volunteer happened to be walking out. Recognizing the danger Sage faced, she immediately began networking this lovely girl, determined to give her a chance at a future. At the same time, MAGSR was already in conversations about another dog at the same shelter. Knowing Sage had no other options, our team made the decision that saving two lives was better than saving one—and both girls joined the MAGSR family.

Sage is a beautiful young dog with a soft caramel-colored coat and an even sweeter personality. Just under a year old when she entered her temporary foster home in the South, Sage was underweight but incredibly affectionate. With full meals, a soft bed, and a consistent routine, she quickly began to thrive. It became clear that Sage already had some important skills—she is social, walks well on leash, and loves to lean in for cuddles. Though her past is unknown, it’s obvious someone showed her kindness along the way. She is comfortable with people and other animals, and while she occasionally needs redirection when she gets a little too playful with the resident cat, she responds well to guidance.

Sage impressed her foster family by excelling with crate training and making great progress with housebreaking. When she recently traveled north to her current foster home in the Mid-Atlantic, it was clear that she had been enjoying her daily meals—she had gained some healthy weight. Upon closer inspection, however, it became apparent that the extra pounds weren’t just from good food… Sage was pregnant. Still a puppy herself in many ways, sweet Sage arrived with more than one little passenger. Knowing she deserves to feel safe, calm, and comfortable while finishing out her pregnancy, one of our incredible foster families welcomed her in and is providing everything she needs to rest, nest, and prepare for motherhood. Donations toward Sage’s baby shower can be made at https://a.co/angSJOp.

As Sage’s medical care is now being closely monitored, we also learned that she is heartworm positive—a diagnosis that could have been prevented with monthly heartworm prevention. Because treatment cannot begin until after her puppies are weaned, Sage will require careful monitoring over the coming months as she delivers, raises her babies, and later begins heartworm treatment. This care will be extensive and costly, but Sage is absolutely worth it. Please consider donating to support her ongoing medical needs.

Despite everything she’s been through, Sage remains a joyful, affectionate girl with a heart of gold. Because of her size, it’s easy to forget she’s still very much a puppy—and she does puppy things! She is eager to love, quick to bond, and ready to be someone’s very best friend when the time is right.

Stay tuned for updates on Sage and her growing family. 

If you’re looking for sunshine wrapped in fur, look no further than Sim! This happy, affectionate girl is full of life, energy, and love to share. Sim is always ready to greet new friends—human or canine—with her trademark wiggly booty, bright eyes, and big, goofy grin. She loves meeting new people and has never met a stranger. Although she hasn’t been around children before, her friendly, social nature suggests she would greet them with the same enthusiasm she shows adults.

Sim is a fun-loving, curious companion who thrives on attention and playtime. She’s happiest when she’s part of the action, whether that’s going for a run, playing in the yard, or just soaking up affection from her favorite humans. She’s loyal, full of personality, and has an infectious zest for life that makes every day brighter. Sim is simply all about enjoying every ounce of life. As is true of the breed, particularly younger GSDs, Sim will thrive with continued training, clear boundaries, and consistent structure. She knows how to sit and shake paws, but she’s still working on perfecting her potty training and leash manners. Her curiosity sometimes gets the best of her—she may zigzag on walks, pull ahead to investigate something fascinating, or stubbornly stop when something catches her eye—but with patience, direction, and positive reinforcement, she’s eager to learn and please.

At home, Sim is a bundle of energy and curiosity. She doesn’t guard her food, toys, or space and plays well with other dogs, though her enthusiasm can sometimes overwhelm those who want quiet time. Sim is definitely not a couch potato. With this in mind, she is still working on understanding boundaries and can get herself into a bit of mischief. Sim has been known to chew on household items, dig in the yard or trash, and even counter surf for interesting objects (though not food!). She’s also quite the clever girl—when she needs to go outside, she’ll sometimes try to open doors herself by standing on her hind legs and turning the knob. She’s not crate trained yet and can’t have bedding or blankets, as she enjoys tearing them apart, but with time and guidance, she’ll learn what’s hers to play with. When provided with clear rules, routines, and structures, Sim will shine. 

Sim’s best qualities are her friendly, loving spirit and her playful energy. She adores people and always wants to be involved in what’s going on. She would thrive in a home that can give her plenty of exercise, affection, and patient training. She’s beautiful, smart, and full of potential—what more could you ask for? If you think your home is the right fit for this amazing girl, ask to meet her today. She’s ready to find the forever family she’s always deserved.

Xena was recently returned to the MAGSR family after spending several years in a loving home since she was a puppy. While this was not the outcome anyone hoped for, sometimes life circumstances change in ways that are beyond a family’s control. Xena was deeply loved, and her family knew that she deserved the opportunity for a fresh start—one MAGSR promised to provide. We welcomed Xena back with open arms and committed to finding her an incredible match as she moves forward into her next chapter.

Xena is an active, intelligent, and impressive girl who thrives when she has a job or a purpose. She is highly motivated to learn, eager to engage, and has a strong foundation that sets her up for success. Always happy to try new things, Xena needs regular mental and physical stimulation to stay balanced and fulfilled. She is not a couch potato and is looking for an active family that will challenge both her body and her mind on a daily basis. This structure not only helps her continue building skills but also supports her confident, stable personality.

Having lived in a home for several years, Xena understands many of the ins and outs of household living. She is crate trained, housebroken, and familiar with household expectations. As with any dog transitioning into a new environment, Xena will need time to adjust to the routines and rules of her forever family. True to her breed, Xena does take her role as a guardian seriously and can be protective of her home and property. Her forever family should be prepared to understand and implement best practices that help keep Xena feeling secure, supported, and successful. At the end of an active day, Xena is more than happy to relax with her people. She is affectionate, enjoys closeness, and loves settling in for the evening with those she trusts.

If your family is looking for an outgoing, intelligent, adventurous companion who is ready to form a deep bond and thrive with the right guidance, Xena would love to meet you and find a family of her very own
