My story

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

Octopus came to MAC in January as a stray with his three siblings, all around 8 months old. While his siblings found homes pretty quickly, Octopus is unfortunately still waiting for his chance. Now a teenager at the shelter (a little over 1 year old), he's bursting with energy and in need of more playtime. After 121 days at the shelter, he's eager to join a family he can grow up with!

This high-energy guy needs a big yard to run and play in, or some active humans to take him on long walks and adventurous hikes. Wear him out, and you'll also discover a cuddle bug who's incredibly loyal and loving! Octopus hasn't had much experience with other dogs, but he has the potential to do well with doggy siblings that match his energy level. He's a bit rambunctious, so a home with steady folks would be ideal. If you're ready for a high-energy, playful pup, Octopus is the one for you!
