My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Mac is friendly, loyal and active.
Mac prefers people over anything else!

This boy's needs are pretty simple - a one-person or one-couple home and some moderate daily exercise, followed by a place next to you, he is happiest finding a comfy place to be wherever you are.

When he is with his people he is an affectionate cuddlebug who will amuse you with his expressive face and cute mannerisms. He is a dog that looks to people for leadership and guidance - great qualities for training; his trainer says ‘once he meets you, he is a friend for life!"

ABOUT MAC:
- Mac is a Lab/Shepherd mix, 5 year old, male, mid-sized approximately 45 lb
- Mac is a tripod, he has 3 legs his back left leg was amputated after an injury
- Mac is neutered, house-trained, microchipped and has his core vaccinations
- He is friendly and does better with calm, slow introductions
- He will bond and follow his person(s) everywhere they go in the house

This boy doesn't pull on walks and will focus on you but he needs you to honour his way of communicating his desires. He likes meeting people but not other dogs on his walks (not right now, anyway) while he has been with us Mac has been working with a trainer and he's making progress. His trainer has made great strides with his vocalness to seeing other dogs on a walk, with space and distance he does well. Our trainer looks forward to working with his adopters to ensure a successful transition and knowledge transfer to his new family.

MAC'S IDEAL HOME:
- A detached home with a fenced yard in a quiet neighbourhood
- Home with one or two people who are home more often than not and not many visitors
- Someone who will be able to maintain his health and give him daily moderate exercise
- A family willing to continue to work with his trainer on his socialization

If you think Mac would be a great addition to your pack, we want to hear from you!
