Description:

Meet Mac!

Mac was surrendered by his owners when they moved.

Mac is a petite fellow, smaller in stature than he looks in his pictures, and when he curls up in a ball, he hardly takes up any room at all! He really likes his humans, and wants to be snuggled close (but not on top of your lap).

At his age, he's still youthful in nature but is a very well-behaved housemate. He's fully house-trained, doesn't chew on inappropriate things, and only occasionally barks (primarily outside).

Mac is a bit overwhelmed by the resident dog who is bigger than him - she wants to play, but Mac is a bit uncertain. He would likely do best as an only dog, or with another smaller dog, and would do fine in any home/apartment setting.

He has beautiful markings - his black back has just a few white angel kisses on it, and he has a small white ring around his nose. His fur is short and smooth to the touch, very easy to care for.

He is a little shy around the house, but when it's time for a walk, his confidence comes out more. He does well on the leash, and also knows "sit" and "lay down". Mac could probably benefit from obedience classes primarily for the socialization and confidence-building experience, not so much for the learning to behave himself.

Once Mac feels comfortable with you, he will give affection with small, gentle kisses or just a side-lean into your legs, and in return, he will politely ask for affection with a light pawing at you for attention. Looking into his brown eyes, and seeing his stubby tail wiggle with joy...you'll agree that he's a sweetheart!

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
