hie has had a busy fall and early winter. On Nov. 2nd she gave birth to seven healthy puppies. We were very proud of Sophie who proved to be a good mommy to all of her babies. It took a few weeks but Sophie's personality began to shine as she was able to get a few breaks from motherhood. Sophie loves any and all toys. She throws them in the air, chases after them, and generally entertains everyone around. As an inquisitive girl, Sophie will try most things particularly, once she trusts her handler. A food motivated girl, Sophie loves any and all dog treats and will immediately sit or go into a down when treats are involved. Living with a pack of foster siblings, Sophie has socialized very well with everyone in the pack. She definitely has the energy of a teenage dog but has quickly learned the ins and outs of pack life. At this point Sophie is housebroken and crate trained. She loves attention and often just wants to snuggle with her people. As Sophie's pups are now old enough to find their own homes, Sophie is hoping to find her forever home as well. If this fun-loving girl sounds like a good match for your household, please inquire about her today. Update-A few days after Sophie's arrival to MAGSR, her stomach looked distended, so we got her to the vet and found out that she was very pregnant and is due a litter of puppies in a couple of weeks. Sophie was surrendered to a shelter as she was constantly roaming the streets. Sadly her family found it easier to dump her then to properly contain her. Her mother is an AKC registered purebred GSD and dad is anyone's guess. Sophie is a sweet friendly girl who enjoys the company of other dogs. Sophie deserves better, a family that will train her, take her for walks, provide both mental and physical exercise.

  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.
