For every dog we bring into the rescue, 
including the adoption donation, we lose about $200!

The average vet fees amount to nearly $100. If we have to kennel the dog for a month, that's another $300. Less the $225 adoption donation leaves MAGSR in the hole over $200 for every dog. This doesn't even take into account the dogs that come to us with health problems or the dogs we don't place right away.

How can you help? Two ways: 

  • First, open your heart and your home to a foster dog. We'll work closely with you to find the right dog for your specific situation (existing dog, cat, small children). By doing this, you'll save the Rescue $300 each month.  

  • Second, if you can't foster a dog, please sponsor one. We have several plans to choose from. 

Sustaining Plan
Contribute just a dollar a day, either monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually in one contribution.

Single Donation Plan
Contribute whatever your budget allows and know that your contribution is going directly to help a German shepherd in need.

When you sponsor a German Shepherd under either plan, you will receive a certificate of Sponsorship showing the dog's name. With your permission, your name will be displayed on our web site.

To participate in MAGSR's sponsorship program, complete the sponsorship form and mail it with your check (payable to MAGSR) to: 

Mid-Atlantic German Shepherd Rescue, Inc.
PO Box 353
Mt. Airy, MD 21771

Remember, your contribution may be tax deductible; MAGSR is recognized by the IRS and the state of Maryland as a 501C(3) charity. And with MAGSR you can be sure that 100% of your donation goes to directly helping the dogs.
