Ace
DESCRIPTION:

Ace was surrendered by his family as he was not getting along with the older male GSD in the home.  His family loves him very much, but realized it would best for all that Ace find a new home.  Ace lived with another male and female GSD, he did not have any issues with the female.  He has been around children and did well, but he does get spoked when they run up on him, for this reason it would be best that Ace only go to a home with older respectful children.  Ace loves attention from his family, he is crate trained and has good house manners.  Ask to meet this handsome boy.

Luke

ADOPTED 09/29/2016!

Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Age at adoption: 13 years
Color: Black & Red
Current Size: 94 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 95 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: No
Living With: Foster

Good With Kids: Older kids only
Good With Cats: No
Other Dogs OK: Yes

DESCRIPTION:

This sweet, loving, senior boy who devoted his life to his previous family was repaid for those years with being dumped at a shelter.  Why, because they no longer had the time for him.  The condition he arrived in our care showed that this family never had time for him, his nails were so over grown that he had a very difficult time walking, his beautiful long coat was dirty and matted and he had a skin infection.  Well his life has changed for the better, he is now in a loving foster home living the life he so deserves.  

Luke bonds quickly with his people, he is getting around well after his much needed nail clip and has a nice pep in his step for a senior.  He has been examined by the vet and is being treated for the skin infection.  Seniors are wonderful, they have so much love and kindness to give.  Please don't let Luke's age deter you, he deserves a true family to call his own and to spend his senior years with.

Updates:
  • Luke is settling in nicely to his foster home. He's getting stronger every day in MAGSR's care and when he walks, he's almost prancing around and seems so happy. He likes to play with toys, play catch with his ball, and is becoming more active. If you're looking for a companion and would consider one who has lived a little, please consider this senior boy who still has a lot to give. Luke's foster mom took Luke in thinking she would be getting an old guy that really couldn't do much, but she has been very surprised. MAGSR was told Luke is 12 yrs old, but his foster mom think he's a few years younger than that. While Luke may not be for someone who wants to hike 10 miles or someone who wants a dog to run or jog with, Luke is now taking several walks a day and can easily walk 1/2 mile without difficulty. Luke is very affectionate and loves all attention he gets. Luke would make someone with a quiet lifestyle a great dog and companion. Please schedule an appointment to meet Luke!

EvieEvieEvieEvieEvieEvieEvieEvieEvieEvie
DESCRIPTION:

Sweet Evie was surrendered at a shelter when her family decided to move. They took the 3 month old male GSD but didn't take her. Evie lived with children in her previous home - the youngest child being 4. She is reported to be housebroke and trustworthy in the home. Evie is a sweet girl looking for a family who will love her for life.

Updates:
  • Evie is doing well in her foster home and recovering from a pretty bad case of pneumonia. Evie is a very sweet girl and is very attentive and affectionate and focused on her handler. Evie will need structure and training, as all the pups do, and is waiting to fully recover and move on with her life and her new family. Please think about meeting Evie because she is waiting to meet you.
  • Evie was returned to MAGSR after a year, through no fault of her own, but because her owner could no longer provide care for her. Evie's foster reports that she is confused and nervous in her temporary home. Her fosters slowly introduced her to all of their resident dogs a little bit at a time, but for now, are allowing her to decompress in her crate and will continue to integrate her into the pack gradually and at her own pace. On walks around the neighborhood, Evie seems to be okay, but she is very sad she is now without a permanent home. Evie walks well on a leash and was friendly with the neighborhood kids. Evie is such a sweet dog just wants to find a family who will love and commit to her. If Evie sounds like a good fit, please ask to meet her.

While he does have some basic obedience training, we do require that all of our adopters complete a minimum of 6 week training with their adopted dog.

Hemlock

ADOPTED 09/05/2016!

Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Age at adoption: 1
Color: Black and Tan
Current Size: 75 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 75 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Yes
Living With: Foster

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: Yes
Other Dogs OK: Yes

DESCRIPTION:

Hemlock was very much loved by his family but his owner was deployed and his family looked to MAGSR to find Hemlock a loving and caring home. He is a beautiful boy who is very friendly with everyone he meets. He loves to play fetch, Frisbee and loves to cuddle. He has carpus valgus in his left front joint. It has been established that this condition most commonly occurs in rapidly growing medium to large breed dogs. Some evidence suggests male puppies are more likely to be affected by this condition. This condition does not stop Hemlock from running and playing and having fun. If you can provide this handsome boy a loving home please ask to meet Hemlock today.

Updates:
  • Hemlock was returned to MAGSR when his family could no longer care for him. Hemlock is a young and energetic dog who has now broken the plate in his leg causing turning of his leg again. MAGSR is working with surgeons to determine the best course of action for Hemlock so that he can move forward with his life with a new family. Hemlock's recovery will require time and patience and following a strict set of guidelines for any adopter. Please ask to meet Hemlock if he sounds like a good fit for your family.
  • Hemlock (or ‘Lock, as his foster mom calls him) may have a crooked leg, but it doesn’t stop him from having fun! He is a high energy dog with a goofy personality and a lot to say! Playing with his Frisbee, swimming, going for long hikes, and riding in the car are some of his favorite activities. If you’re looking for a dog to share in your adventures, he’s your guy! As long as he gets his daily exercise, he will happily snuggle on the couch and watch TV with you (but much prefers to bring you toys so you can toss them). He loves to play with his foster fur sister, but sometimes gets a little jealous if he’s not the main focus. He knows many tricks, and would love to learn more! He’s still young, so does have to be reminded of the rules, and going to training will help with that. He’s potty trained and crate trained, but he rarely stays in his crate because he’s just so good in the house! If you can provide the patience, love, care, and commitment he deserves, please ask to meet him!

Current Size: 100 lbs
Housebroken: Unknown
Obedience Trained: Needs Work
Living With: Kennel

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: Unknown

DESCRIPTION:

Shorty, who is actually a tall lanky boy was surrendered as his person could no longer care for him. It is obvious that he was loved and well cared for. Shorty is a lot of dog, weighing in at 100 lbs he is very strong and pulls quite hard when being walked on a leash. He has no formal training which he would benefit from greatly. He is super friendly and very sweet with everyone he meets, although he does like to greet them barks. He needs to be taught dog on dog social skills, he does get along with other dogs but has not had much exposure to them so he is not quite sure how to interact. If you have the time to devote to Shorty's training he will be a well mannered boy in no time, as he is very smart and picks up quickly.

Stefi

ADOPTED 08/13/2016!

Current Size: 65 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 65 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Needs Work
Living With: Foster

Good With Kids: Yes

DESCRIPTION:

Meet Stefi one of our new girls looking for her forever family and home.  Walks, playtime, socializing and love will make Stefi a happy pup.  Training of course will help her and her new family learn more about each other.

Updates:
  • <p>Hi, my name is Stefi (like Graf for those who remember her). I am totally cute, soft and sweet. Everyone comments on how incredibly soft I am – you won't find another dog as soft as me – and I love being petted, getting belly rubs, and generally just being with you. Within 1 minute of meeting you I will be in belly rub position. I know I don't look like a typical GSD, but it's in my heart – I am loyal, I listen and I love. I have highly expressive ears – they go all directions and even flat – and they help you understand what I am thinking. And along my back and around my neck my fur is a little 'curly'. My foster mommy thinks it charming. People comment that they think I am a puppy – I have great energy, have large paws, and sometimes act a bit goofy. But I have the great things that puppies don't: I am housebroken, I do settle and I come when called, etc. So other bits about me: I love cuddles and dog toys, I need to continue learning my leash manners, sometimes I am a bit too much when meeting other dogs but will settle into it but you'll have to help me, I am a total sweetheart and I will steal your heart. I love stretching out and laying in some interesting positions. Squirrels are fascinating to me, but I didn't show much interest in cats (though haven't been officially tested yet). I love love love kids – just check out my video on my profile. I am the gentlest dog when taking treats, easily eat my meds with my food, am a bit of an escape artist but I don't get in trouble, and I am crate trained – though would rather be out with you. Contact MAGSR and learn more about me. I'd love to meet you and find my forever home!</p>

DESCRIPTION:

Sable along with her puppy Honey were surrendered due to their person moving. Sable is an absolute sweetheart. She is very friendly, greeting people with kisses and tail wags. Sable's puppy days are over, it is time for her to live a life full of love, playtime, walks and being with her people.

Updates:
  • <p>Sable arrived to our care with what we were told was a cyst on her eye. We had her seen by a specialist and it turns out that Sable has a tumor on her eye. The tumor is in a location that makes trying to remove the tumor very risky, it also makes it very difficult to do a needle biopsy. In order to determine if the tumor is cancerous her eye will have to be removed and sent for pathology. Sable will be having her surgery shortly.</p>
  • <p>Little Ms. Sable tolerated her surgery well. She has some discomfort but is adjusting fairly well with her eye sight. Every day we see improvements. She will have to continue to wear the e-collar to prevent any injury to her surgery site until her stitches are removed and she is healed more. &nbsp;She is bumping around the house but learning as she goes. Through all of this Sable still remains very sweet and friendly. What we have learned so far is Sable is crate trained, good with other dogs and is very friendly with our resident cats. Once outside she has learned to follow her foster friends around by latching onto the back of them with her e-collar and follows behind them until she feels confident enough to venture off on her own. Ms. Sable is a easy going girl, loves everyone and will fit into any home. She doesn't seem to know any commands but we will work with her once she is feeling better. Please send healing thoughts her way.</p>

DESCRIPTION:

Sheba is what we lovingly call a pocket Shepherd due to her smaller size.  Don't let her size deter you though as she has many of the wonderful qualities of a full size GSD, just in a smaller package.  Sheba is confused with the changes in her life, we are giving her time to settle in and get to know her better.

Updates:
  • <p>Sheba has been in her foster home now for a few weeks and is really settling in with her foster family.&nbsp; Sheba is super sweet and just an all around great dog.&nbsp; She's also amazing with the resident cats - allows them in and they even allow her to lick/sniff them without running away.&nbsp; Ask to meet Sheba if she sounds like a good fit.</p>

Sam
SamSamSamSamSamSam
DESCRIPTION:

A neighbor found Sam tied to a tree after his family moved away and left him. Thankfully this good samaritan found him, had him seen by a vet then reached out to us to find Sam the home and family he deserves. Sam is somewhat skittish and needs a little time to be comfortable when meeting new people. Once he trusts you he becomes relaxed, enjoying walks and playtime. He will of course need his family to commit to training with him, this will help Sam become more socialized, build his confidence, learn all that he needs to know and of course create a strong bond with his family. Sam needs some work so please be sure you are able to devote the time that is required to help Sam move forward.

Updates:
  • <p>Sam has spent the last few months in a board and train program.&nbsp; Sam came to us having not been well socialized, lacking confidence and fearful.&nbsp; The trainers have brought him a long way,&nbsp;but it is an ongoing process.&nbsp; Sam will require an experienced and knowledgeable GSD handler.&nbsp; It is also required that his new person continues with his training in order for Sam to continue on the right path. &nbsp; Sam does bond with his handler, but requires time to accept new people.&nbsp; If you are interested in Sam it is required that you meet him and follow the directions of his trainers at K9-Koncepts&nbsp;<a href="http://www.k9koncepts.com/" target="_blank"><u>http://www.k9koncepts.com</u></a> to ensure a good fit for all.&nbsp; If you would like more information on Sam we can put you in touch with his trainers.</p>
  • <p>Sam is a very handsome, active 5 yr old altered male just reaching maturity. Sam is very sweet, but still shy - he will bond to his handler and definitely needs to be well exercised on a daily basis. Sam has completed basic obedience training, knows basic commands such as sit, down, come, &amp; walks well on loose leash.</p>

Toby

ADOPTED 07/31/2016!

Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Age at adoption: 1 year
Color: white
Current Size: 57 lbs
Ideal/Potential Size: 65-70 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Yes
Living With: Foster

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: Yes
Other Dogs OK: Yes

DESCRIPTION:

Toby made his way to MAGSR after a kind soul discovered him at a shelter and knew he deserved a chance at a forever home. Having moved around a bit in order to make his way to MAGSR Toby is, understandably, a little unsure about his new circumstances. However, he is slowly warming up to his foster family and we know over time his full personality will shine.  As a young and energetic pup, Toby is your typical GSD - he enjoys playing, leaning into his people, and head and neck rubs. Toby will require guidance, training, and continued patience as he develops into a good canine citizen; however, he already has a good start as he is housebroken and is currently crate training. Toby is an intelligent pup who wants to follow the direction of his handler. He is quickly picking up a few commands and is learning how to walk on leash when  participating in daily walks with his foster siblings. Although Toby is learning about pack life with his furry foster siblings, he does require slow introductions to new dogs at this time as he lacks confidence. We are sure that over time with training and socialization, Toby will develop into an amazing dog.

Updates:
  • <p>It's amazing what a few weeks in a foster home can do for a young, energetic pup. Toby has been very busy lately learning about what it is to be a good canine citizen. Thrilled to try anything that involves a high value treat, Toby has learned many of his basic commands. At this time, Toby knows - sit, stay, down, crate, out, and off. As he has developed many of his commands, Toby has increased his confidence and has become more comfortable within the community. In addition to basic commands, Toby has also been developing his leash manners. As Toby has made significant progress in this area as well, he is now jogging a few miles with a couple times a week. On days when Toby doesn't go for a run, he is thrilled to take a long walk and then play fetch. Activities such as these have helped Toby burn his puppy energy in a constructive manner. When activities are all done, Toby is happy to settle down with his foster family and chew on a bone or snuggle up for a few extra cuddles. If this fun-loving guy sounds like the right match for your household, please inquire about him today.</p>
