We need fosters! Please help!
|
Our hands are tied! Without good foster homes, we can't help the dogs that need us! PLEASE consider giving up a bit of space and some time to help a dog in need! Join our team of heroes today!
Fostering costs you nothing! We pay for food, any vet visits, and provide you with everything! MASR has a dedicated team to help you with any issues or concerns you have. We have vast online resources for our volunteers to help you, including how to introduce your dog to your foster dog, training tips, what to expect in the first days of bringing the dog home. We also have a trainer to offer any additional training tips. Please consider opening up your home and becoming a foster. Our dogs rely on it, Email: foster@masrescue.com |

Lennox!
|
Today we are celebrating our beautiful Lennox! Not yet available for adoption but she will be later this month. Lennox came into our care with her eight adorable babies. Lennox was not in great shape when she first arrived. She was severely underweight and suffering from some health issues due to being badly malnourished. BUT, with some good nutrition, good veterinary care and lots of TLC from her foster family, Lennox is now doing great! She is happy and playful and very very sweet and loving.
Lennox is a beautiful female Shepherd cross, approximately one year old. She is smaller than an average Shepherd would be, we describe her as medium sized. She is very pretty with expressive eyes and a gentle nature.. Keep watching for further updates on our wonderful Lennox! <3 |

Dog of the Week: Howie
|
Our Howie had a big day yesterday! A walk through the bush, a ride on a pontoon boat and his very first canoe ride! This wonderful pup is always game for anything. Howie loves life and is happy trying new things or just relaxing with his foster family.
Howie is outgoing and friendly, good with children and good with other dogs. House and crate trained. He has learned some manners and his recall is amazing for a young pup! All Howie is missing is a family of his own... why not drop into Canvasback's Adoption Days event next Saturday (September 14th) and meet this terrific pup? Howie will be charming everyone from noon until 2 pm! If Howie sounds like your new best friend email adopt@masrescue.com |

Scam Alert!
|
It has been brought to our attention that there are individuals collecting fraudulent donations on behalf of several rescue groups in Manitoba. These individuals are accepting cash or etransfers through their personal email accounts and the funds are never forwarded to the rescue they claim to be representing. They are falsely identifying themselves as rescue volunteers and are committing fraud by targeting the generosity of those who support animal rescues.
Manitoba All Shepherd Rescue only accepts etransfer donations to the following email address: treasurer@masrescue.com |
We also accept donations directly to our account at Plessis Veterinary Hospital.
We never solicit donations by phone, email or go door to door. To confirm whether or not an individual is associated with MASR, please email us at the above address. If you believe you have been a victim of fraud, please contact Winnipeg Police Service to report it. |

Our New Sponsorship Program!In the spirit of thanksgiving weekend, we wanted to introduce our new sponsorship program. This sponsorship program is designed to help vet and feed all our puppies and dogs in care, as well as any unexpected costs.
We are currently almost 100% out of food for our dogs. But to keep it simple for everyone, and keeping things easier on our dogs stomachs, we are now looking for monetary donations so we can purchase large quantities of food, and still be able to issue tax receipts to all those who donate $25 or more. There are 4 levels of sponsorship, and you can choose to donate as monthly sponsors or not. You can also choose if you want to be the sponsor for a certain dog or puppy. Costs of veterinary care (including medication) has been increasing, as well as the cost of quality dog food. One of our long term residents is now on a fully raw diet, plus natural supplements in order to help finally put an end to her allergies and boost her natural immunity. Her costs alone for maintenance is $150-$200. Please let us know if you have any additional questions about our sponsorship program. Please share this poster as well as we can really use the support to keep our rescue functioning and saving as many lives as we can! |

Have any of you following our rescue ever wondered why we do what we do? Ever thought that there's always so many dogs needing help and surely our efforts can't be making that much of a difference? Ever thought that you wouldn't want to foster because it may be too hard to let them go? Maybe figured that donating money or food is just a "drop in the bucket" because the need will always be there?
Well, here's our answer to anyone asking those questions. This picture says it all! The top photo is Orion (now Diesel) who came into our care with his mom and three littermates from a very remote northern community. The bottom photo is Bair (now Bear) who came into our care after his owners moved and left him behind. Both of these photos show these beautiful dogs with their forever families. These two wonderful dogs, and hundreds of others just like them, have been helped by MASR because we had fosters willing to brave the heartache of letting them go on to their new lives. We were able to provide these dogs, and others, with the proper medical care because of the kindness of people donating towards their veterinary care. Good nutrition was also provided due to the generosity of people donating food. This is why we do what we do! "Saving one dog will not change the world, but surely for that one dog, the world will change forever." |
