Story
Courtesy Listing Hansel is a calm, confident adult dog with a steady presence and a deeply devoted heart. Now fully grown, he carries himself with quiet assurance, balanced by a gentle and affectionate nature with the people he trusts most. Naturally intelligent and attentive, Hansel is quick to learn and appreciates clear guidance and routine. He enjoys structured activities, engaging play, and outdoor time where he can stretch his legs and take in his surroundings. Thoughtful and observant, he tends to assess new situations carefully before jumping in, showing a maturity that makes him feel wise beyond his years. Hansel forms strong bonds with his family and is happiest when he knows everyone is together and safe. While he may appear reserved at first, his loving personality shines through in subtle ways — leaning in for quiet affection, staying close by your side, and offering steady companionship throughout the day. Strong yet gentle, protective yet tender, Hansel is a loyal and dependable friend who brings comfort, stability, and heartfelt devotion to his home.

Story
Daisy just arrived and she is beautiful! She is a little nervous meeting new people at first but warms up quickly. She will need training, she has absolutely no leash manners and she is a very tall girl. She also has LOTS of energy! She will need to be spayed before she can be placed. More info to come as she acclimates in her foster home. Please include your home area code and a phone number where a volunteer can reach you when contacting us about an adoption.

Story
Elmer is a sweet 3 year old great Dane/ mastiff mix. He came into rescue with his family of puppies and sister due to no fault of their own. He loves everyone he meets and greets them with tail wags and big leans. If Elmer really likes you he will sit in front of you and offer his paw then lay down for belly rubs. He is gentle taking treats and will sit for his food. He goes into the crate easily and loves a soft bed to sleep on. He is trustworthy in the house and has not been destructive or counter surfed. He has the typical great dane characteristic of being glued to his foster mom's side. Elmer is currently living with a large female dog and has shown that he can be pushy if she is getting more attention than he approves of. He will push between and needs to be corrected. He quickly responds to redirection. He loves tennis balls and will carry a large one around in his mouth and play independently. He loves to run and play with his foster sister but needs to be reminded not to get too rough. Taking walks is one of Elmer's favorite things to do. He sits to have his leash put on and walks with minimal pulling. He does need a strong handler though in case he sees another dog or small animal. He will leap and lunge towards other dogs, not aggressively but wants to meet them and he will stare at birds, rabbits, and squirrels he sees outside. He is overly curious of the cat and chinchillas in the foster home and needs to be pulled away from the cage and chases the cat. At this time we cannot recommend placing him in a home with small animals because of his size and strength. Overall Elmer is a happy, healthy large boy who is looking for a loving home that will be as devoted to him as he is to his people. He has had his cherry eye repaired and has been neutered while in the care of MAGDRL. He will be the perfect addition to the right family.

Story
Augie (formerly Chico) is a special needs blind 6 month old Mastiff mix who has returned to MAGDRL and is currently getting the training he needs to be the best companion he can be. Augie was not liked by the other dogs in his previous home and would be best as an only dog or in a home with a laid back tolerant large female. Augie will be a big boy, is growing fast and loves to play play play. He is doing so well with his training, and whoever adopts him will have the support of his trainers for life. Augie is loved by anyone who meets him, he may be blind but he does not let it slow him down one bit. Please consider Augie if you love a dog with a lot of character, have big dog experience and even better if you have blind dog experience. He is going to blossom into a wonderful companion with some maturity and continued reinforcement of his training. UPDATE JUNE 2026: Augie, our special needs blind mastiff mix, has been in the kennel since Thanksgiving, he just turned one year old. He desperately needs a home that is willing to work on his special needs. He can be very sweet but has his quirks and needs leadership. He will bond quickly to his leader. He has been thru lots of training and knows all of his commands, walks great on a leash. Please help us find Augie his forever home, he deserves a loving home, he has so much love to give. Please include your home area code and a phone number where a volunteer can reach you when contacting us about an adoption.

Story
7 year old male husky named Blue. Blue needs a big yard and lots of walks to keep him happy. He gets along with cats and dogs however he does not do well with a senior dog. He has hurt my 13 year old Puggle and we need to keep them apart. He does great at unleashed dog parks. He is crate trained and never has accidents in the house. He is a quiet dog. Never barks. He is very good driven and his prey drive is high. Especially for birds. He will escape if you do not have a fenced in yard. He counter surfs so food must not stay out. He knows a few basic commands. Sit, stay, paw, roll over. He does not like to be grabbed. We have adult children. He has never hurt a child however I do not know how he would react if his fur was pulled or he was hit by a child. We need to rehome him because we live in a smaller home and smaller yard from our previous home. His constant picking on my senior dog is also an issue. He is absolutely fine with my 3 year old Pomsky.

Story
Hello there! Romeo here! I know, can I be any more handsome? I mean, I could be the poster pup for charm and cuteness. I'm a young, single fella, friendly as can be, and trust me, I've got the manners of a true gentleman. I know my basic commands and am always eager to make new friends. Before joining the amazing crew at B.E.A.R., I spent some time wandering the streets, hoping to find a family to call my own. So here I am, tail wagging and heart full of hope, just waiting for the right family to sweep me off my paws! Are you the one I've been waiting for? Let's make some unforgettable memories together.
