Story
Nancy was found as a stray with her buddy Patsy. They were turned into local animal control, and unfortunately, never reclaimed so we welcomed them into the Mutts family!   She is estimated to be about 2 years old, near 50lbs and is a sweet girl that is both house and crate trained. She gets along with other dogs and loves attention too! Nancy arrived with some muscle loss/weakness in her rear legs due to poor nutrition and not being well taken care of.  As of July 1, her strength and muscle tone has improved and she is walking normal now - it is amazing how good nutrition, exercise and proper care can work wonders!  **Magnificent Mutts is an all foster home based rescue and meets are held by appointment with the entire family in attendance. Please ensure your current pets are up to date with vetting, have landlord/HOA approval and are prepared to take your new family member home at the adoption appointment.  Thank you for your interest!                                        If you are interested in adoption, please complete the "Application to Adopt" which can be accessed from this link: (       www.magnificentmutts.org )  No phone calls please, emails only. Adoption donations range between $400-$450 (cash only), unless otherwise noted. Prices are subject to change, please contact for specific adoption donation. Please visit www.magnificentmutts.org for the online dog application. July 4, 2025, 1:20 pm

Story
I’m looking to rehome my beloved German Shepherd mix to a home where he can thrive and find joy. He is in excellent health, up-to-date on all vaccinations, and has been well cared for since being adopted. This boy is smart, loving, and thrives on structure and companionship. He knows basic obedience commands and a few tricks too. He will do best with someone who can provide him with space to call his own (like a yard), an active lifestyle, or experience with working dogs with more time on their hands. He is fully house-trained, and has been around numerous dogs before. He's not a fit for homes in urban/populous areas. He has anxiety and is medicated for it. He prefers a slower paced environment where he can mostly be in control. This is a very difficult decision, and I am committed to finding Beau the right forever home and companion that is patient and understanding enough to meet his needs. I’m also open to a trial period/foster to ensure the fit is mutual for both Beau and you.
