wrapped in a soft, loyal soul. Big Boy adores being part of whatever his family is doing and has a calm, loving presence that brings comfort to everyone around him. He gets along beautifully with people and other animals alike, showing signs of being both dog- and cat-friendly. His easygoing, mellow temperament makes him an ideal companion for almost any home. Whether he’s trotting happily beside you on a walk, quietly watching over the yard, or curling up to relax with his favorite humans, Big Boy shines brightest when he’s surrounded by love. Big Boy was picked up as a stray almost a year ago by another rescue. However, due to an overabundance of animals in need in the area he was overlooked by potential adopters for far too long. Knowing that this gentle soul deserved a family to call his very own, the rescue asked us to consider welcoming Big Boy to the rescue family. MAGSR knew this handsome guy would be the perfect match for the right household and welcomed him without a second thought. Although we know Big Boy is special, we do not know much about his past. With such an incredible personality, someone must have loved him somewhere along his journey. Like all shepherds, Big Boy is looking for a loving household that will provide him with the structure, routine, and leadership that will help him thrive. Training will be critical to his success. Not only will training help Big Boy recognize that he is finally home with his forever family, but it will also help him develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. I Big Boy is looking for a forever family that will appreciate his impressive nature and provide him with the love and happiness that he so desperately deserves. Big Boy truly is a big boy with an even bigger heart. If you are looking for the perfect gentleman, look no further than this boy!

  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.
