Story

These puppies were surrendered at only two weeks old after their mother passed away, and they required full bottle-feeding, warmth, medical care, and intensive 24/7 support during the most fragile stage of their lives. Born on September 10th, they overcame a difficult beginning and have grown into healthy, confident, playful, and curious pups with soft medium-to-long coats. They were socialized with people, normal household activity, toys, and regular handling from infancy. Their adoption fee is HIGH and reflects the extensive cost of raising orphaned newborns, including formula, veterinary care, medications, supplies, and the round-the-clock work required to keep them alive and thriving. They are now ready for committed, loving forever homes. Phone Contact: 847-727-9608 Adoption Application: https://form.jotform.com/232924707557161

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Big Mama is the Mom to the Fighter Jet litter of pups and is now also available for adoption! She is now getting her girly figure back, is approximately 4 years old and weighs between 75-80lbs. Big Mama will require a home with German Shepherd/working dog experience. She has not been "kid tested" and if there is another dog in the home, she prefers one not to be in her face. She is both house and crate trained. More information to come soon! We recommend training for all our dogs! **Breed or size (once fully grown) is a 'best guess' and is not guaranteed since they arrived into rescue without either parent. **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. November 19, 2025, 3:09 pm
