Mako is a 5 1/2 year old pit bull who arrived at the shelter as as tray in late August. He is heartworm positive, but receiving treatment at the shelter. Mako is looking for his new home!
Mako is a handsome dog with a calm demeanor and a nose for adventure! This mellow guy absolutely enjoys spending time in the yard, where he happily roams around sniffing to his heart's content. While he isn't the type to chase toys or play games, Mako enjoys exploring his surroundings and taking in all the interesting scents.
When it's time for a walk, Mako's excitement shines-he'll eagerly run to the door as soon as he sees the leash! While he can be a bit of a puller, especially if there are other dogs around, he's generally easy to walk in a quieter environment. He responds well to treats (which he takes gently) and enjoys the company of his person.
Mako prefers to be the only pet in the home, as he doesn't seem to get along with other dogs. He can be reactive when passing other dogs in the kennel or on a walk, so he'd thrive in a dog-free household with a family that understands his need for space.
Despite his quirks, Mako's sweet personality makes him a joy to be around. He's a great companion for someone who wants a loyal, laid-back friend who's happiest sniffing around a yard or going for peaceful strolls. Could you be the one to give this beautiful boy the loving home he deserves?
If you're interested in adopting Mako, please come visit him during our adoption hours, 12 pm - 4 pm, every day but Tuesday at the Guilford County Animal Shelter.
