Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 7 years 11 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 86 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Working on it
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Older kids, over 10
Good With Cats: Unknown
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Jagger was not well cared for in his previous home, he also was not well socialized or provided with any training.  Jagger will need a adopter that has experience with the breed and has the time and energy to devote to his training.  He takes sometime to warm up to new people, so a slow approach is best with this big boy.  High value treats are a great way to his heart.  Guidance from his new family, ongoing socialization and a good training program will help young Jagger become a well rounded boy. 

Updates:

Now that Jagger is in a foster home, his true personality is shinning through. Jagger is a very affectionate boy and will shower his human with doggies kisses every opportunity he gets. He frequently underestimates his size and will try and climb into your lap to be pet. Jagger is a big boy and will jump on you/ into you and can be mouthy when excited, which he is working on with his foster mom so best to go to a home without small children. His leash manners have improved in a short time and he heels nicely next to his handler with pinch/prong collar on and he is starting to learn some basic obedience.  Jagger rides beautifully in the car, taking in all the sights and sounds.  He is not as scared of new people now that he is away from the stress of the kennel environment, but he can still sometimes be weary of strangers and will bark at them. He is a very picky eater and so far have discovered a handful of treats/food he will eat, one of them being canadian bacon. He knows how to play fetch as you can see in his video on his profile and enjoys playing with toys. He has also conquered his fear of the vacuum and instead will focus on playing with his toy while it is on. When Jagger gets too hot, he will remove the top layer of gravel at the dog park and lay beneath a picnic bench. Jagger wants nothing more then to be with his people and will not leave their side. Jagger is the epitome of a GSD; smart, strong, loyal and as such will need someone with GSD experience who will lead him and teach him. If Jagger sounds like the dog for you please ask to meet him, he's waiting for you.

Gender: Female
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 7 years 12 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 60 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Partially
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Yes, older kids
Good With Cats: Unknown
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Lolly was dumped at a shelter extremely emaciated. Doing some research her original owner was found. Lolly was given away in Dec and ended up in a shelter in March. She has gained some weight but still needs more. She is such a sweet and loving girl. Lolly has EPI, Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency. This is caused when the pancreas does not produce enough enzymes to properly digest food. This is very easily treated by adding enzymes to each meal which helps the body digest food. More information can be found at epi4dogs.com along with before and after pictures of dogs that have EPI.

Lolly is now receiving the enzymes she needs and is gaining weight. Please do not let EPI deter you from considering Lolly, she deserves a family to love and care for her and in return she will give you her devotion.

Updates:

Lolly is quickly adapting to life in her foster home.  She crates nicely and is only noisy when she needs to go out to do her business and has proven to be housebroken so far.  She likes to play fetch, has good ball drive, and tug  - she's learning the "out or drop it" command so it’s best to have two balls.  Lolly gets along well with the resident large dog. She gets very aroused when she knows her food is being prepared with the enzymes and she does better separated from any other dogs during feeding time. Lolly has been friendly to all humans she has met and enjoys affection - especially the butt rub.  She seemed appreciative of the bathing process especially all the massaging and rubbing.  Lolly knows some basic commands and doesn’t pull to much on the leash.  Lolly is very smart and she will take advantage of her human without consistency, so she’ll need someone who can teach her the rules.  If you’re looking for a young dog with medium energy - ask to see beautiful Lolly!

,

More about the lovely Lolly - she loves water and will get the zoomies after swimming; she loves to play fetch and doesn’t want to stop; she knows sit, down, heel, kennel up and is learning place. Lolly doesn't reacted to other dogs, even reactive ones. Lolly whines when she needs to go out, is excited or wants attention.  She likes to be with people and she enjoys being brushed.  Lolly rides quietly in the car, crated or not crated. Lolly barks to alert only with good reason. Lolly loves to chew nylabones; was very good at the vets; and is overall a well mannered, balanced dog.  Lolly has so much to give - ask to see her today!

Gender: Female
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 7 years 6 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 70 lbs.
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: No
Altered: Yes

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

Dietra came to us as an owner surrender.  She was much loved by her previous family which included young children and a male GSD.  Dietra is a very sweet girl who is in need of a family of very own.  Dietra did arrive in our care not putting weight on her rear leg, we had her seen by our vet who recommended she be seen by a orthopedic specialist.  Dietra has an appointment scheduled for this coming week to see the specialist in order to find out, if anything, is wrong with her leg.  Once we know we will post an update. 

Updates:

Dietra has been seen by an Orthopedic Specialist.  Dietra has a bone infection which is being treated.   It was also discovered that Dietra has a torn ACL, once the infection has cleared up she will have TPLO surgery to repair the tear.  
 

MAGSR is committed to Dietra's treatment and surgery.  This is a costly endeavor, but Dietra is so worth it.  Donations towards her surgery are greatly needed and very much appreciated, no amount is too small.  Please help us help Dietra and the many other dogs that rely on us to keep them healthy and safe.

King

ADOPTED 05/15/2018!

King
KingKingKingKingKingKingKingKingKingKingKingKingKingKingKingKingKing
Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 9 years 12 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 70 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Unknown
Altered: No

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

King made his way to us after he was confiscated by Animal Control for running at large and lack of proper care.  He is approximately 4 years old.  He is a little shy upon first meeting new people, but he quickly warms up and leans in to be petted.  He seems to be a very nice boy that just needs stability, love and care.

Updates:

Once in our care, our volunteers noticed King may have some difficulty seeing everything that is happening around him, so MAGSR had King seen by an eye specialist who diagnosed King with Progressive Retinal Atrophy in both eyes. The doctor feels it could be congenital or event related onset. King is totally blind in his right eye and has partial sight in his left eye. At the vet's recommendation, MAGSR is starting King on a dietary supplement, Ocuvite, which is inexpensive and can be purchased online easily. Going forward, King will need to be seen once a year by an eye specialist. King's foster mom reports he was an amazing patient and through all the tests, he was gentle and cooperative - he even gave the vet a kiss when they were done. King's personality outshines everything else. King is wonderful in the home and quickly gets out of the resident cat's way. On his walks, King is friendly to everyone he meets - adults, kids and other dogs. He rides well in the car, is housebroken, and does well on a leash. He's not fond of the crate, but he does wonderful when free in the house. King can get easily spooked but that may have to do with his limited sight - when he gets scared, he just backups and doesn't bark or growl. He is learning about the steps and that they aren't a bad thing. King loves his food and treats and will sit nicely for them. King is a wonderful guy and anyone who meets him won't focus on his limited sight, but rather what a great dog and companion he is.

Bo

ADOPTED 05/13/2018!

Bo adopted
BoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBoBo
Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 9 years 2 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 100 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: Basic Commands
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Older kids, over 12
Good With Cats: No
Other Dogs OK: Some, with proper introduction
DESCRIPTION:

Bo came to us from a shelter, so we have no history on him.  He can be picky about his dog friends and may do best as an only dog or with female dogs.  Training of course will go a long way helping Bo settle in, learn some manners and how to properly interact with other dogs.  With people he is very friendly, although we do not know how he is with children at this time. 

Updates:

Bo is great dog, and he's doing nicely in foster.  His weight is up to 84lbs from 69lbs a month ago, and he loves to run and is building muscle - he is really looking good.  He has been going to training for a few weeks and is doing very well the class, both with his basic commands and in terms of his confidence and socialization.  He does fine in his crate (although he will start to make a racket sometimes if he feels he's missing out on something!), is house broken, and has acclimated well, and is happy and comfortable with his two older GSD foster siblings.  Bo still has a lot to learn, but overall he's a very sweet and responsive dog, that is progressing well and will make a great addition to the right lucky home, that is ready to provide the care and love that Bo so richly deserves.

,

Handsome a sweet Bo was returned to MAGSR thru no fault of his own after his family decided they no longer wanted him. Bo’s prior family never truly committed to him and he spent most of his time in a crate. Bo is an active and friendly boy who needs exercise and continued training, as do most German Shepherds. Bo is ready for a forever family who will truly commit to him, spend time with him and not lock him in a crate and not give him up when he becomes an inconvenience. If interested in meeting this handsome boy, ask to meet Bo today!

DESCRIPTION:

 

Oliver was surrendered as he was not good with the resident cats.  He was originally adopted from a shelter in Niagara Falls, Canada.  His adopters moved and could not take him so they left him with their parents in TN who had cats.   So as you can see he is well travelled on the East Coast.  He is a friendly boy who would just like to settle his paws in a forever home, one without cats of course.

Updates:

Windsor is a good foster pup. He gets along well with everyone, four-legged (dogs only so far) and otherwise. Windsor is working on his doorway manners and he's learning sit/stay in his foster home.  Windsor is a pacer out in the yard and has some energy to burn. Windsor is slowly learning to play, when he wants to.  Windsor accepts the crate, although he's not always happy about going into it, but he's quiet and relaxed when in there. Windsor is great interacting with kids. If Windsor sounds like a good fit for you, please ask to meet him.

Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 50 lbs.
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: No
Altered: Yes

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

Sadly Daina's family turned her into a shelter as she was experiencing digestive issues and weight loss.  Such a friendly, loving and sweet girl, she did not deserve to be abandoned especially in her time of need.   Now that Daina is with us she is receiving the care she needs and deserves.  She has been seen by our vet and is undergoing testing to determine why she is so emaciated.  She is receiving high quality nutrition and supplements and extra meals.  Daina deserves to know the love of a real family, one that will care for her no matter what.  Please consider Daina when looking for  your next BFF.

Updates:

Daina's test results revealed that she  has EPI, Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency.  This is caused when the pancreas does not produce enough enzymes to properly digest food.  This is very easily treated by adding enzymes to each meal which helps the body digest food.  More information can be found at epi4dogs.com along with before and after pictures of dogs that have EPI.

Daina is now receiving the enzymes she needs and will begin to gain weight.  Please do not let EPI deter you from considering Daina, she deserves a family to love and care for her and in return she will give you her devotion.

,

Daina is doing so very well in her foster home and is definitely stronger and putting on weight now that she has the enzymes she needs for her food. Daina is a smart, playful, active, curious and fun girl. Her playful personality is really emerging now that she feels better. Daina loves to play tug and will also retrieve a ball thrown for her and will sit immediately when waiting for it to be thrown again.  She is friendly but alert and will alert her foster mom when she hears unexpected noises, but Daina is a pretty quiet dog in general. Daina is very well behaved and housebroken. She is learning obedience commands and leash manners and takes easy corrections well - some training will help quickly teach her the skills she needs to be a good canine citizen. Daina is just a wonderful, sweet, playful young girl waiting to make some family very happy!   

,

Hi - I’m Daina! I’m a little over 1 year old, past the puppy days but so full of fun!  I sit, walk well on a leash, play with other dogs and kids very nicely, love my crate, and am a really happy dog.  I do have one easily managed issue: I need to have enzymes sprinkled on all my food 20 minutes before I eat, to help me digest it and stay healthy.  It’s called EPI, or exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, (which you can look up online very easily), but other than that, I’m a normal, happy, fun young girl looking for my forever home.  I’ve met other dogs, horses, and kids here on my foster’s farm, and I’m friendly but alert. I don’t bark much at all, unless I hear something that just doesn’t sound right - then I’ll let you know. I like to play ball and tug, and go for walks anywhere you want to take me!  Please consider me when you are looking for a dog you can love forever - I’m kind of a sweetheart!

DESCRIPTION:

Aria and her sister Allie came to us from a shelter where they had been surrendered.  We are told that mom is a purebred GSD and dad is purebred Lab.  At 16 weeks old both girls have a whole lot to learn.  It is never too soon to start basic obedience training, as socialization with other dogs and people is very important, along with learning good puppy manners.  Puppies will chew things, have accidents, get into things and have lots of energy, so please be sure you have the time and patience it takes to raise a puppy.

Updates:

Aria is settling well in her foster home. She is very affectionate, sweet, and playful. Aria will easily crawl up into your lap and cuddle next to you. Belly rubs are the best. She is responding well to housebreaking and enjoys hanging out with her family, including the resident cats. She is very friendly and her foster mom is working on her manners when she gets excited meeting new people. Aria is a gem, so don't miss out on meeting her.

DESCRIPTION:

Samson came to us as an owner surrender.  Unfortunately his former family have their hands very full with medical needs, this left Samson home alone for too long.  He was very much loved and well cared for.  He is now looking for a new family, one that will love and care for him as much as his last family has.  Samson is a stunning, all white male GSD.  In his previous home he lived with young children and another male GSD.  Samson is a very smart boy, he can open doors using his mouth to turn the knobs, he can open a gate latch and knows how to get out of a wire crate.   He does need some basic obedience training, not only will this help him learn good manners, but it will also help to create a bond with his new family.  He enjoys spending as much as time as possible with his family.

Obedience Trained: Basic Commands

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: No
Other Dogs OK: Unknown
DESCRIPTION:

Onyx was adopted from us as 9 month old puppy.  She had lived with her adoptive family for just over 4 years.  Onyx had a run in with the neighbors small dogs so her adopters decided to return her.  Knowing that Onyx would be housed at the kennel, as we have no available foster homes without dogs, they still decided that was the best place for her.  I can't imagine that Onyx thinks being a kennel away from her family is the best place for her.  At this time we do not know if Onyx is good with larger dogs as she has just been returned to us.  We are giving her time to adjust to losing her family and her home, once we feel she has settled in we will do proper dog introductions.  Onyx is very sweet with people, although a little cautious at first meeting them.  She lived with children in her prior home.  Onyx doesn't deserve what her family did to her, with proper containment, making sure she is not able to escape open doors and with training things could have been worked out.

DESCRIPTION:

Solomon came to us as an owner surrender.  Unfortunately his former family have their hands very full with medical needs, this left Solomon home alone for too long.  He was very much loved and well cared for.  He is now looking for a new family, one that will love and care for him as much as his last family has.  Solomon is a stunning, large, all black male with the shiniest coat.  In his previous home he lived with young children and another male GSD.  He does need some basic obedience training, not only will this help him learn good manners, but it will also help to create a bond with his new family.

Updates:

The past six months with Solomon have been an absolute blessing. Him and our female German Shepherd could not be a better match and are always together. Where one is, you will see the other. Solomon completed his beginner class through Dauntless and is currently half way through intermediate. He absolutely loves playing fetch, taking naps, chasing his sister female shepherd through the house, and laying with his person. He walks right in his crate and when we are in our room will just hang out in there.

Solomon is absolutely in love with our god children. When they come over he loves playing the game Tag with them. He is very gentle with them and will lay with them or run with them throughout the house.

He has been the perfect addition to the family. I am getting emotional typing this as I am thinking to myself “who really saved who?”

All the best-

Updates:

Allie is doing great in her foster home. She is definitely a puppy. Allie loves the resident children and follows them around. When she gets excited, she will jump but she is easily corrected. Allie is working on housebreaking and has been getting the idea about going outside. She enjoys chewing her bone and doesn't mind her crate. If you are looking for a fun, a loving puppy like Allie is for you.

,

Allie has settled right in to her foster home. She is a playful puppy that is always looking for praise. For Allie praise is better than a treat. Praise is working really well on her house breaking and she rarely has an accident in the house. Allie loves to play with the resident dogs and curl up to snuggle with the resident children. If you want a puppy to raise to be your very own Allie is your girl!

DESCRIPTION:

 

Mally was surrendered to us as her elderly caregivers were moving and could not keep her.  She has not had any training or guidance, nor has she been exposed to the world around her.  She will need a family who will commit to training to help her build her confidence and of course to learn good canine manners.  It is important that Mally has ongoing socialization and is introduced to the sounds, sights and smells of the world.  It is her families job to guide her, work with her daily, provide lots of playtime, exercise, love and care. 

Updates:

Mally is settling in to her foster home.  She is housetrained and very responsive to "No" verbal commands.  Mally is young, so she does good exercising with her foster.  Mally is excellent with her human and warms up to other dogs and strangers - she likes to take things at her own pace and be introduced slowly so she's comfortable.  Mally may do better in a lower key and less chaotic home and is very excited as she waits for her furever family.  Could that family be yours?

Merlin was surrendered as he kept escaping the yard with a 4 foot fence, suggested ways of keeping him contained were not implemented.  He had been with his family for 5 years and deserved more than to be given away.  As Merlin is new to us we are just getting to know him.  He lived with another dog in his prior home.  Right now he is confused and somewhat anxious with the changes in his life.  He does require training to help him with good canine manners and to learn what is expected of him.  Training is a great way to start the bonding process with a new family.

DESCRIPTION:

Mocha was adopted through our rescue when she was just 16 weeks old.  She has lived with her adopters for the last 6 years.  After 6 years they decided to return her because they could not contain her in their yard with a 4 foot fence. Instead of correcting the problem or supervising her while she was out she was returned, leaving the only family she has known.  Mocha deserved better than this, along with a lifetime commitment.  She is such a well behaved sweet girl, she gets along well with other dogs.  Mocha is now looking for a family who will commit to her for her lifetime.

NikiaNikiaNikiaNikiaNikia
Gender: Female
Breed: German Shepherd Dog
Approximate Age: 13 years 2 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 65 lbs
Housebroken: Yes
Obedience Trained: No
Altered: Yes

Good With Kids: Yes
Good With Cats: No
Other Dogs OK: Some, with proper introduction
DESCRIPTION:

Nikia was found as a stray and ended up in a shelter.  She is a beautiful, well behaved older girl, past the antics of a younger dog.  She would be happy hanging with her family, going for strolls and being loved.

Updates:

Nikia is settling in great to her foster home.  Her foster parents report that Nikia is a delighful dog. She loves to ride in the car and just look out the window. She walks beautifully on a leash with minimal correction ("back") to keep her from walking out front and pulling. Nikia doesn't lunge or bark at people, other dogs, or anything else - just perks her ears up and shows interest but stays quietly by handler's side. Nikia is calm around small children - she perks perked up her ears and sits nicely to watch.  Nikia loves tennis balls and tends to hoard them, so attention to taking those away when not supervised is necessary.  Nikia likes bully sticks too.  Nikia will only play with a toy if it is specifically given to her for play.  Nikia stays off the furniture unless given permission.  Nikia follows her humans around the house.  If Nikia sounds like a good fit for your family, ask to meet her today.

,

Nikia's playful nature is coming out now that she is getting more secure in her environment. She loves to ride in the car and go for walks and loves to play.

She knows some basic obedience commands and is quite food motivated.

Crate trained. Goes right into the crate to eat and when she wants some down time. She waits patiently by the front door and pants or softly whines when she needs to go out to relieve herself.

She comes when called when she is off leash. She is very social and friendly but never jumps up on people. When she is really excited she does these little leaps in the air but not onto anyone or anything, just leaps a little bit in her own space.

She is very teachable. Has already learned "back" when I want her to get behind me so I can go out the door first.

Good With Kids: Yes

Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Ralph came to rescue when he was a 6 month old puppy, all cuddly and cute.  Of course being a puppy lots of people were interested in adopting him.  His family adopted in 2016 and sadly returned him as  he is no longer the cute puppy they adopted.  Yes, we see this far too much, people getting puppies but once they are grown adults the puppy cuteness has worn off and they are surrendering the dogs through no fault of the dog.  While Ralph is no longer a puppy, he is a still a very handsome and loving young boy.  Ralph lived in a home with a toddler and did well.  He has had no obedience training, so his leash walking skills need improvement.  He enjoys being near people receiving attention.  He's a sweet boy that just needs some structure and training to make him the perfect little love-bug!    Ralph is looking for a family who will commit to him for his lifetime.

Updates:

Ralph is doing really well in his foster home. His humans are working on obedience commands with him and he's doing really well.  He is learning that as much as he loves to meet new people, it's not polite to jump.  He loves to play and dig in the back yard with his foster sister.  He's very alert and can hear his foster dad move his chair in the house on another floor which means that it's "Ralph's time" for attention.   If Ralph sounds like he could be a good fit for you, please ask to meet him soon. 

,

Ralph is a very well behaved and tolerant gentleman. His sit, stay, down are coming around nicely and his leash manners are good.  Ralph is a lovable nut and he's improving all the time.

Boyka was surrendered to us as his former person was very busy with his graduate studies.  He knew that Boyka needed more time and attention then he could give him.  Boyka is very well behaved for a 7 month old puppy, he is housebroken and crate trained.  He will whine and bark when first going into his crate but will settle.  He absolutely loves the company of other dogs, both males and females, he wants to be near them all of the time.  He is currently in a foster home with another GSD and Boxer, both are seniors and he does so well with them.  He does have a lot of puppy energy, he enjoys going for walks, playing and running in the yard and a good game of keep away is a lot of fun.  He does not have perfect leash manners, but they aren't bad for a dog of his age.  He is a sponge and soaking up everything his foster mom is teaching him.  He has met children of varying ages and did well, but he does not take treats gently and his energy level may be too much for little ones.   Boyka is very ready for a good training program and a new forever family.

Approximate Age: 6 years 11 months
Color: Black & Tan
Current Size: 64
Housebroken: Unknown
Obedience Trained: No
Altered: No

Good With Kids: Unknown
Good With Cats: No
Other Dogs OK: Yes
DESCRIPTION:

Clark is a handsome German Shepherd puppy who is approx.10 mos. old. Clark was  rescued from a bad situation, his owner died and the other relatives threw him out to fend for himself.  Despite his size he is still a puppy - happy, inquisitive, and wanting to please, but also needing guidance and patience from his new family. .Clark will need the full range of obedience training classes to help him be the best grown-up dog he can be. Training will also allow Clark to form a bond with his new family. This boy has been through a lot in his short life but is now ready to find a new home and a new family to love.

Updates:

Clarke is a wonderful dog and very friendly.  Sadly, sweet Clarke tested heartworm positive when seen by a MAGSR vet.  He obviously was not started early on monthly Heartworm Preventatives which would have protected him.  MAGSR will make sure Clarke gets the treatment he needs to rid his body of Heartworms so that he may enjoy many more years of life.  Treatment is expensive but Clarke is certainly worth the cost.  Donations towards his treatment would be greatly appreciated – this would also help us save other dogs with medical needs.

,

Clarke is a happy-go-lucky pup who has settled nicely into his foster home. As a young energetic pup, he has made a lot of progress with a little leadership and consistency. Although it seems that Clarke has had little experience on a leash or with training, this intelligent boy is quickly picking up on new skills. Clarke is learning sit, down, heel, and watch. His foster family reports that this treat motivated boy is always happy to learn a new skill particularly, if a training treat is involved. Clarke has begun some basic training but will definitely need to attend formal training with his forever family. Training will not only help Clarke bond with his new family but, it will also provide him with the guidance needed to address puppy behaviors such as mouthing and jumping. 

Due to his heartworm positive status, Clarke isn't able to run and play the way a young dog typically would at this time. However, Clarke is handling his restrictions like a champ. He is very well behaved in the crate and is making great progress with housebreaking. Having learned the joy of a good bone, a few comfortable blankets and a strong chew toy, Clarke seems unfazed by his current circumstance. Although Clarke will need to take it easy for a couple months as he undergoes heartworm treatment, he can't wait to find his forever family!

DESCRIPTION:

Diesel was surrendered to a shelter when his family moved and could not take him with them.  Diesel can take a bit of time to feel comfortable with new people, he just likes a slow approach.  Once you have given him time he bonds quickly, especially with women.  He enjoys being out for walks and play time, he is good with other dogs and enjoys spending time with his family.  This very handsome boy is looking for a family who will commit to him for his lifetime. Training is a must as it will help Diesel build confidence.  He requires a leader so that he can feel comfortable.

Updates: Hi guys​,​ Diesel here!  I wanted to tell you how much better I am doing now that I am in a foster home.   The kennel made me feel insecure and nervous but now I'm feeling much more confident and love to play fetch​. I'll even drop the ball for you on command.  My foster mom says I already know some basic obedience such as heel, sit, stay, down, and crate.  Speaking of my crate​,​I am the perfect gentleman in it and will go in on command, it's my space and I'm good with that a l thought I probably can be trusted free to roam but foster mom has not tested that out yet. I still take a little time to warm up to new people but once I know you I'm your shadow and welcome belly rubs and will nuzzle you with my head and crawl between your legs for attention. I can be protective of my handler and the home but with proper guidance I will follow your lead.  I am not a couch potato so taking me for plenty of walks and allowing me to run around to expend energy is a must.  I've proven to my foster mom how smart I am with this thing where she hides treats in a puzzle and I have to use my nose to open different compartments, boy is that a lot of fun!  Some of my favorite things are Kong squeaky balls, bully sticks, and tug toys.  Foster mom tells me what a wonderful boy I am and that my forever family is out there somewhere, could that be you?!

DESCRIPTION:

Dax is a very handsome and big boy.  He came to us from a shelter so we have no history for him.  He is very friendly with people and enjoys spending time with them.  He has done well with other dogs, although he will react to other dogs that bark at him.  He would probably do best with a submissive dog, but one that enjoys playtime.   He has a more laid back personality, such a wonderful boy.

Updates:

Dax is settling in great in his foster home. He’s mellow and does well free in the house – Dax is a very  large boy, so he needs a rather large crate. Dax is very strong and big. Dax rides well and is very attentively curious about wildlife (squirrels, geese birds, etc.) and all seem new to him, so he may not have been a country dog in the past. Dax seems to have had some obedience training, but needs to sharpen his skills. Dax loves to snuggle up to his foster mom and dad and likes his chill out and quiet time.  Dax is a dog with tremendous potential.  If this big loveable boy seems like the perfect fit for your family, ask to meet Dax today!

DESCRIPTION:

Maren was surrendered to us as her elderly caregivers were moving and could not keep her.  She has not had any training or guidance, nor has she been exposed to the world around her.  She will need a family who will commit to training to help her build her confidence and of course to learn good canine manners.  It is important that Maren has ongoing socialization and is introduced to the sounds, sights and smells of the world.  It is her families job to guide her, work with her daily, provide lots of playtime, exercise, love and care.

Updates:

Ahsoka, formerly known as Maren, unfortunately has been returned as she was too protective of her home.  She did not like when visitors came to the home.  This can be managed by putting her away in a secure room and/or crate when people come to the home.  She will also benefit greatly from a strong leader who will provide appropriate correction and training.  She would do best in a home that does not have frequent visitors and with a family that is willing to put her away when visitors do come.  She desperately needs someone who will commit to her to help her learn good manners through a good training program.

,

Ahsoka is doing beautifully in her foster home. She loves her foster dad, who takes her on bike rides/runs, and she's in love with the resident dogs, especially the male. Ahsoka stays focused on her handler and looks to them for guidance, so as long as the handler is in charge, Ahsoka is a happy and well behaved girl. She doesn't much like things that startle her, but corrects quickly and easily from reacting. Ahsoka will still need to be managed properly to ensure success for her and everyone else involved, which is why Ahsoka will only meet those who have prior experience with the breed. Ahsoka has come a long way - she is a happy and confident girl now and is waiting patiently for that special family to pick her. Is that you?

Luckily, for all involved, we were able to provide a caring home in his hour of need. He is now resting comfortably in the home of a very loving and compassionate care giver. Because of his advanced age, Chip is very arthritic, a little unstable on his feet and requires joint medication. A home with no steps is a must and limited non-slip floors are preferred. Currently, we are trying to take a little excess weight off of him. However, even with limited mobility, he manages to get around. Chip loves going for car rides and bonds very quickly to his favorite people. He is very charming and wants nothing more than to be loved and spend quiet time with his favorite people.

DESCRIPTION:

Midnight cannot be any cuter and is absolutely a great little girl, happy go lucky and loves to give puppy kisses.  Midnight has a lot to learn about going a good canine citizen and will require training.  Please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family - puppies are a ten to twelve year commitment.  Puppies are full of energy and can be mischievous – they will whine, have accidents, get into things, and chew on inappropriate things.  With time, patience, guidance and training, Midnight will become even more of an amazing girl than she already is.  Please inquire if Midnight sounds like a good match for your family.

Updates:

Midnight was attacked by a medium sized dog prior to her arrival in our care.  She sustained bite wounds to her face and mouth which were sutured.  Upon arrival to our care she was seen by our vet who referred her to a dental specialist.  Midnight was examined 3/6/18 by the dental specialist and it is found that her upper palate is fractured but is healing well and will continue to heal on its own.  Three of her baby teeth were damaged and had to be extracted.  X-rays did reveal that her adult teeth buds are present, but until they erupt it is unknown if they have sustained any damage.  If they have they may need to be removed.  If they do not erupt they may be absorbed or they may need to be removed.  Midnight also has a small puncture in her nasal cavity which is causing a snorting sound when she breathes, but it in no way is impeding her breathing and she has very good airflow.  She may or may not have the snorting sound for life.  The specialist stated she is a young, happy, growing puppy which is beneficial to her healing. 

,

Midnight is doing great in her foster home and has recovered from her dental surgery to remove the puppy teeth damaged by the dog bite. She is making progress on potty training.  Midnight is not shy at all and takes any new experience in stride.  Midnight corrects easily, is super playful and gets into everything, as all puppies do.  She loves the resident cats and wants to play with them and adores the resident dogs.  Midnight is an awesome girl.  Ask to meet her today.

DESCRIPTION:

Sadly Sadie recently lost her human dad as he unexpectedly passed away and her human mom is disabled and hospitalized.  As you can imagine Sadie is quite confused as to why she is not with her family, in a strange place with people she does know.  We are giving her time to settle in and adjust to her new surroundings.  She has been skittish with us but once she is comfortable with our volunteers she comes out of her shell and enjoys romping around.  Sadie would do best in a home that is not very busy as she is somewhat of a flight risk as she continues to look for her family.  With time and patience she will overcome this and become bonded to her new family.  
 

Updates:

Sadie is doing very nicely in her foster home and is fully acclimated to her humans and resident foster dogs with no issues.  Sadie loves her foster fur-siblings.  She goes biking with them, plays off-leash in the yard with them, and settles nicely with them in the home.  Overall, once she is comfortable in her surroundings she is a big puppy – very sweet and very animated and excitable.  Sadie is shy and cautious around new people, so her foster parents are working on that with her and helping her lose weight as well.  If this sweet girl sounds like she could be good fit for your family, ask to meet her today.
