Torrick 💙 we have nub wags. He will be the ONLY Doberman under MSGBR. He was our first dog off property from this case. Torrick will be the face that forever changed how I view a Doberman. He has taught us so much about his breed.
They are smart, some are derpy. They have ALL been attention hounds, seeking all the pets and rubs you will want to offer. Much like Pitbulls, I would say Dobermans are equally misunderstood. Loving. Loyal. We understand how so many have wanted to meet these dogs, so many following already knew what we would come to know. They are wonderful pets.
Please seek other posts on our page for full updates about this case, where all dogs are headed, etc. This was not anything Brad & I, nor our team could take on alone. It was too soon, following our own tragedy.
Torrick does have people within our rescue, following him, interested in him. We are still learning about him, he has only been with us for just over a week. Boots on the ground started this case October 25th, we will have it cleaned out in 10 days. 39 dogs. 2 left/disappeared after relinquish paperwork was signed*** THANK YOU ALL.
Almost 5 years living your best life, as an MSGBR sanctuary dog. 💙 we love you so big, Diesel. You wait for us each day. You know which cars are ours……..
There is no love, like a rescued dog’s love.
🌈 Recently, and sadly, one of our fosters, lost one of their pack dogs. A special dog. Trapped and rescued by Dawn, Ripley would have the best life, ever, surrounded by so many resident & foster dogs who loved her. She had her corner, where she watched the world go by. And if you were lucky enough to be trusted by her, she had the softest fur……
Watching dogs say goodbye is beautiful. If you know dogs, watching this video shows just how well they know, through their senses, of what happens day to day. On this day, they would all say goodbye to Ripley. One dog, another special rescue dog from #cabinroad would watch, with caution. Marley, rescued from #cabinroad had been exposed to so much death at #cabinroad, so much neglect, would hang back.
“Here's the videos I was talking about after Ripley passed. Marley, who had probably seen so much death, smelled so much death on Cabin Rd wouldn't go anywhere near it.”
A heartfelt so long, to a dog so well loved, Godspeed, Ripley~
The Rainbow Bridge
inspired by a Norse legend
"By the edge of a woods, at the foot of a hill,
Is a lush, green meadow where time stands still.
Where the friends of man and woman do run,
...When their time on earth is over and done.
For here, between this world and the next,
Is a place where each beloved creature finds rest.
On this golden land, they wait and they play,
Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day.
No more do they suffer, in pain or in sadness,
For here they are whole, their lives filled with gladness.
Their limbs are restored, their health renewed,
Their bodies have healed, with strength imbued.
They romp through the grass, without even a care,
Until one day they start, and sniff at the air.
All ears prick forward, eyes dart front and back,
Then all of a sudden, one breaks from the pack.
For just at that instant, their eyes have met;
Together again, both person and pet.
So they run to each other, these friends from long past,
The time of their parting is over
🚨 Can you help us move Bear to a home that more fits what he needs, from what our foster & MSGBR has learned about this senior guy….. HE CANNOT STAY WHERE HE IS~
Bear is currently in a home with kids, he does not like kids, he has let us all know. He will need a senior retirement home with no kids, a soft place to spend the rest of his days. HE LOVES ADULTS, so much. He has also done well with the male dog, he tries to hump the female. He is neutered. We are not sure of what happened with Bear & kids, previously, before he came to rescue in need, after losing his family.
How you can help:
We need a foster home where Bear could live out his days. He would not do well in a pack, but would be fine with one other submissive male dog, he has loss of vision in his one eye, causing shadows, he does become startled. If you have a soft place for Bear to land, and you love seniors, this boy has so much love to give. NO CHILDREN~
Happy 13th Birthday Clara!! Today Clara celebrated her birthday with ice cream and lots of extra love. This is her second birthday she has celebrated since coming into rescue last September.
Happy 13th Birthday Clara!! She has partied all day and ended her night with some ice cream. Clara has now celebrated 2 of her birthdays while in rescue. She came to rescue last September with one her one little pup named Hope. Clara has so much spunk, you would never know she turned 13 today.
😭 Heartworm injections ARE SO HARD ON THE DOG 💔 but so are the heartworms. Catch 22 and it is ALL preventable. Kamilla is home with her beautiful foster family, resting. She is very uncomfortable. Please hold her in your thoughts and prayers. We usually see them come out of this in 2-3 days, following the injection.
Please talk with your vet about the best course of preventatives for your pet. But please make sure they get this preventative, this is no longer a southern disease. We are seeing cases of heartworm pop up, up north.
We will be dropping our gal a care package tomorrow. ♥️ Thank you to her foster family for giving her extra loves over today and tonight.
COME OUT TO PITICORN TODAY FROM 10:30-4.
Eddie got a new favorite ball and he is hoping to take it to a new home, soon. 🐾 Eddie is still looking for his forever, he is hoping that person is reading his profile. MSGBR.org
~You love a hunk of a boy to hang out with (89#) and continue to work with.
~You understand and can spend time to continue to work with a guy who came in to rescue and his foster family, emaciated, a bit shut down/sad, and zero idea how to dog. Possibly chained, we are unsure but Eddie did not know much about being a dog, including inside manners. Those have all been worked through and our fosters are saints. There is still work that could be done on his favorite past time, bowl flinging. You will witness this in videos ♥️ If he was chained, this would make sense, this would/could have been all he had all day.
~You love to be loved, Eddie only knows how to be in your personal space.
~You want a dog that has as big of personality as he is in size. Eddie is a fun dog, and he is blocky. Does not always understand his size. Due to this, it is best for him to be in a home with kids 12+.
~You are ready for so much love from a big guy who has been through so much. There really is so much to love about Eddie. Eddie has done at all events with other dogs.
Eddie is thought to be around 5-7 from our vets here in VA. They do think it possible he was initially thought to be older, because of his condition/neglect. Eddie has come so far, he loves people. Ready to meet Eddie, head over to MSGBR.org 🐾

There are dogs at a local Humane Society. Their page was taken down from FB, the largest social media platform they had, over a misunderstanding about a cat. There are still dogs at this humane society who need to be networked and the Berkeley County Human Society in Martinsburg WV, has no page. They do have other social media platforms but have counted on facebook, that is where they have always had their largest following.
We have not been asked to do this.
How you can help, please help bring their dogs back to facebook until they can get their page back up. THIS IS ABOUT THE ANIMALS STILL IN THIS SHELTER~no matter how anyone feels, see beyond that to what matters right now, networking dogs and cats in need. In a time when most shelters already have negative space and animals coming in every day.
Losing an entire page over a misunderstanding is mind-blowing and should impact every single rescue & shelter who watched this happen. This could be any of us. And that is sad because ultimately only the animals will be hurt.
