Meet Magz, a 5-month-old puppy who we believe may be a German Shepherd/Malinois mix. Like many rescue pups, her exact breed blend is anyone's guess, but one thing is certain: Magz is an absolute sweetheart who is ready to find a family of her very own. With her sleek black coat, giant satellite-dish ears that stand proudly at attention, and the tiniest splash of white on her chest, Magz has a look that's impossible to forget. She has the kind of face that makes people stop and smile – and once you meet her, her personality is even more lovable. While many puppies are busy bouncing off the walls, Magz has a wonderfully gentle approach to life. She's the type of girl who carefully takes treats from your hand, melts into affection, and is perfectly content spending an afternoon curled up beside you on the couch. Long naps, cozy snuggles, and simply being near her people are some of her favorite things. That doesn't mean she isn't still a puppy! Magz enjoys exploring her surroundings, learning new things, and soaking up all the experiences that come with growing up. She's currently thriving in foster care, where she's building confidence, discovering the world, and showing everyone what a kind-hearted companion she is becoming.
Ideal Home
Because Magz may have German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois heritage, adopters should be prepared for the possibility of an intelligent and active adult dog who will thrive with training, enrichment, and opportunities to use both her mind and body. Puppies require time, patience, and consistency.
Ongoing Health
Magz is up-to-date on all vetting, including vaccinations, deworming, spay/neuter, and flea/heartworm preventatives. She has also been microchipped.
Training & Support
Puppies benefit from crate training, daily structure, early socialization, and positive reinforcement to learn important life skills like potty training, leash walking, and basic manners. While it may feel overwhelming at times, the payoff is a loyal, loving companion who's grown up by your side.
