Story
My name is Mimi&#44 and I am a five-year-old German Shepherd mix hoping to find a quiet&#44 loving home where I can finally relax and enjoy my golden years. I did not have the easiest start to life. I spent my early days living in a backyard with many other dogs&#44 and it was often overwhelming for me. Because of that&#44 I can be a little shy when I first meet new people. I like to take my time&#44 observe&#44 and make sure I am safe.<br/><br/>What I have always dreamed of is being an inside dog - a companion who gets to share a peaceful home&#44 soft places to rest&#44 and gentle moments with someone who cares. Once I begin to trust you&#44 my whole heart opens up. I become a devoted little shadow&#44 following you from room to room and finding comfort simply in being near you. Earning my trust may take a bit of patience&#44 but the bond that forms afterward is something truly special.<br/><br/>I am searching for a calm&#44 steady environment where I can feel secure and loved. A quieter home would help me continue to build confidence and discover what it means to be part of a family. I am ready for a second chance - one filled with kindness&#44 stability&#44 and the warmth I missed out on before.<br/><br/>If you are looking for a gentle&#44 loyal companion who will cherish the person who gives her a fresh start&#44 I would be honored to meet you. Come visit this sweetheart today and help me begin the life I have always deserved.

Story
Gentle Soul is the very best way to describe my personality. Hi&#44 Im Simba&#44 a senior shepherd mix with the softest heart youll ever encounter Ive been through a bit lately. My owner died&#44 and I was brought to the shelter by family who couldnt give me the life they thought I deserved. When I arrived&#44 I had a pretty painful skin infection that caused a lot of my fur to fall out. But good news... Im healing beautifully and making huge strides every day! My glow-up is well underway. <br/><br/>Im the sweetest boy whos ready to enjoy the calmer side of life. I do the sweetest commands - sit and shake! At this stage&#44 Im not really into wild play sessions - Id much rather spend my time relaxing&#44 soaking up love&#44 and enjoying peaceful companionship. Id prefer to be the only dog so I can have all your attention&#44 but I could potentially live with a very mellow&#44 respectful dog who understands that Im not interested in roughhousing. <br/><br/>What am I interested in? Kind voices&#44 soft beds&#44 slow walks&#44 and someone who will love me for the sweet&#44 loving boy that I am. I have so much love to give&#44 and Im just waiting for the right person to see how special I am.<br/><br/>If youre looking for a loyal companion with a heart of gold and a story of resilience&#44 come meet me today - I cant wait to meet you.<br/><br/>Love from Simba

Bronco — Gentle Giant Looking for a Calm Home 🐾 Meet Bronco, a 6-year-old German Shepherd/Bullmastiff mix with a big heart and even bigger personality.

He’s a loyal companion who thrives on one-on-one attention and is happiest in a calmer, low-stress environment. Bronco is a strong, confident dog who can be reactive in high-energy or overstimulating situations, so he would do best in a home with patient handlers and proper introductions to other dogs. He has previously lived in a home with multiple other dogs of various sizes as well as cats. He will thrive with the right dog companion. He is calm when left alone and respects the home environment. Bronco is eligible for our Foster-to-Adopt program, making it easy to see if he’s the right fit for your family before committing to adoption.

Story
Harley is a 6-year-old German Shepherd/Red Heeler mix who has the whole package: calm, loyal, smart, and deeply devoted to her people. She is house-trained, crate-trained, knows her commands, and settles beautifully in the home. She enjoys her daily walks, her toys, and above all, being close to her humans. A true Velcro dog, she loves nothing more than quietly sticking by your side. Harley can be a bit reserved with men and loves to protect her human. When she is feeling unsure or scared, she may bark or growl out of fear, but with slow, positive introductions, she warms up wonderfully. In her foster home, she absolutely adores her foster dad and teenage foster brother, showing just how loving and loyal she becomes once she feels safe. She gets along with other dogs and is in foster with dogs of various sizes and personalities. She may show herding instincts, so a home with older children and no cats would be best for her. Harley is available through our Foster-to-Adopt program, giving you the chance to get to know her and see just how special she is. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will stick by your side through everything, Harley just might be your perfect match. ----------------------------------------- If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at mscrescue.org/adopt.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. ** More information on Sherlock, coming soon! **           If you're looking for a gorgeous, mature, trainable German Shepherd who will love you forever, SHERLOCK may be your ideal family member! SHERLOCK'S ADOPTION FEE:   $150 This fee covers only part of what we spend to vet, board and rehab the dogs we save. On average we spend over $450 on each dog. We made a decision to keep our adoption fee at the 2005 level even though vet prices have doubled and tripled since then. We are constantly fundraising to cover the deficit. At minimum, your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming, monthly heartworm and flea preventives, and microchip. In many cases it also includes surgery and various types of vet treatment for standard issues such as hot spots, ear infections and so on. INTERESTED IN ADOPTING SHERLOCK? Complete an Adoption Application Now!          Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER! We're picky about our adopters.  Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They 'mouth' and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.   Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!! What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up?  Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.   Have Questions? Email us at mogsrescue@gmail.com Thank you for considering a homeless dog or cat.November 3, 2024, 9:06 pm
