My story

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

Please contact Mamie Hall (mamie.hall@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet shy boy seeking fresh start and love!

MAC NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!

 

Name:  Mac         Best Guess for Breed:  Jack Russell terrier and Chihuahua mix

Best Guess for Age: 8 months as of November 2024        SEX: Male

 

Approximate Weight:  11 lbs as of November 2024; he is still growing!

 

Gets Along With:   Mac does well with other dogs and needs to go to a home with a welcoming resident dog. We haven't seen him with cats but he can be tested if you have them. 

We would be cautious placing Mac in a home with children under 12 years old because young kids can often scare shy dogs with their level of energy or noise.  Children would need to be supervised closely to not leave doors open and should never walk the dog without an adult holding the leash.  We would be happy to discuss this more in depth with any applicant.

 

Currently Living at:  DC area foster home.

 

Special adoption considerations:   Because Mac is shy, he needs to go to a home with a confident, welcoming resident dog. 

 

Mac is Looking For:   His forever home! This sweet shy boy and his sister Tina landed in the shelter along with their mama Faith through no fault of their own. Mac is eager to have his own humans for long sniffy walks, romps, and all the adventures they can dream up. Right now, though, he's confused and scared, and doesn't have enough experience in new settings. He's looking for extra loving and patient adopters who will show him the world at his pace and a welcoming resident dog who will show him how to dog. 

 

Mac is a young boy, not long out of puppyhood, and has so much to see and do. He's got so many adoring gazes and little tail wags, so much loyalty and love in him for his new humans.  What do you say? Does he get to see the world with you? Do you get all the love he has to offer?

What My Foster Says About Me:   Mac is the bestest boy! He is the perfect blend of playful and cuddly and will have bursts of playtime followed by lots of snuggles. He will even put himself in his crate when he's ready for a rest. He has done well playing with my resident dog and is respectful of the resident cat when she tells him to leave her alone. He can be nervous around loud noises, especially cars, but is quickly learning that he is safe. 

Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training. 

TO ADOPT:      The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at   bit.ly/adoptaluckydog  .

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
