Bronco is undergoing a very intense, 3 month long, physical therapy rehabilitation program including shockwave therapy sessions to break up scar tissue, acupuncture, laser and water therapy. His foster mom does various exercises with him multiple times through the day and night in between. While his recovery is going well, Bronco still has a lot of work to do over the next 3 months. MAGSR will continue to fund Bronco's rehabilitation, but could really use some help - the surgery and rehab is costing several thousands of dollars. Donations are desperately needed to help cover his medical costs, as well as other dogs in need of medical care. Your donations allow us to continue to provide the medical care needed for other dogs such as Bronco. Please donate and enter "BRONCO" in the message section. UPDATE:Bronco is doing very well in his recovery from his hip and knee surgery. While he may be getting a little stir crazy, he is doing very well in the crate and just happy to be inside. Bronco is a big boy who loves to give kisses and get belly rubs. He also loves being around his foster fur-brother who calms him. He's very interested in everything and anything in the house - everything is new and exciting to him, that he just needs to check it out. If Bronco sounds like a good fit for your family, please ask to meet him. Bronco's surgery was very expensive for MAGSR - please help MAGSR afford the surgery so that we can continue to help other dogs in need like Bronco. MAGSR is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charity, so your donation is tax deductible. Bronco has not had a very good life. He has lived his life on a chain with his companion a Cocker Spaniel. They were not well cared for, never shown the love of humans, proper care or the comforts of a home. When Bronco arrived in our care we noticed he was favoring his leg and not using it that often. We had him seen by a specialist and it was discovered that he had a dislocated knee and on the same leg his hip was bad. Surgery was recommended to repair both. Bronco quickly stole the hearts of his Doctors and caregivers at the hospital. He is such a gentle soul, happy to meet anyone greeting them with tail wags. He rides well in a car, takes treats gently and loves to be pet. Ask to meet this very special boy. Age: 6 years Good with Kids: yes older Good with Cats: Unknown Other Dogs OK: Yes Please visit our website at www.magsr.org for more info and to fill out our online adoption application.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
