Adoption Application

MAGSR reserves the right to decline any application, based on the information we receive or are given during the approval process, with no explanation to the applicant.  Information received during the approval process is considered confidential.  Any Application not completed IN FULL will not be processed.  *Denotes required fields

Due to the time involved in processing applications please advise us if you have adopted elsewhere, no longer interested in adopting, or would like to withdraw your application as soon as possible .  This will allow us to spend our time working on open applications to find homes for our dogs.

Please do not consider adopting any of our dogs simply because they have a sad story behind them unless you are completely and totally committed to seeing them through their problems and adjustment.  Moving from place to place will only add stress to their lives and can cause more problems.  Dogs have feelings too; please think of theirs when making the decision to bring one into your home.  Our goal is to have this be the last move in their lives, their FOREVER home.

Phone Numbers: Please include Area Code.
Please indicate who to ask for at work number.  
Also, one number must be a home number.  Cell numbers may also be listed as an additional contact number. 

If you rent we must receive written approval from your landlord giving consent for a GERMAN SHEPHERD or MIX, to be in/on the property, BEFORE the application process is started.

  • You may fax it to 888-257-7894 Attn: MAGSR or
  • mail it to MAGSR, P.O. Box 353, Mt. Airy, MD 21771.

You should hear from us within 48 hours once we receive your application.  If you pay the application fee by check, this can delay the processing of your app by a minimum of 7 additional days, so you might not hear from us for 7 to 9 days. If you have not heard from us by then please email us here to inquire about the status of your application. 

Please Be Sure to check your "bulk mail folder" while waiting for us to reply as often times our responses mistakenly go into applicants' bulk folders and they delete without reading.

Please be patient while the form goes through, it may take a few seconds.  You should see a thank you page once the information went through.

If you get an error message, please try to submit the form again. 
If the problem persists, please e-mail us.

Thank You!
