My story

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

**I AM OUT OF THE SHELTER UNTIL 5/3/24**

I`m the madness, the mayhem, the Macho Man!

One of my favorite quotes from my namesake is `I am the cream of the crop I rise to the top!` which is exactly what I did in the hearts of all the staff here at animal control. They all love me and really how could they not?

The staff estimate that I`m only about 1-year old and I already weight over 80 lbs! I`m a huge boy with a big head and an even bigger heart ready to bring all the love and affection you could ever need into your home.

I`m a pretty good listener, I know some basic commands like `sit`, and I usually do pretty good about using the bathroom outside. I am still working on some of my manners though like jumping on people (which I really don`t see an issue with, I`m just trying to give them hugs), so I could probably use some training to help me be an even better pup than I already am.

I really like to play! One time they let me visit with the office staff up front and I was playing and wrestling with them for hours! It was so much fun!

Since I was found as a stray in someone else`s backyard, the staff isn`t sure if I lived with other animals before, so if you have another dog I would like to meet them and see how we get along first. I would also need a slow and safe introduction with cats or other small animals, just in case.

And dont you forget `Nobody does it better than the Macho Man!`

If you are interested in adopting me or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, walk-in adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm and Saturday from 10am-3pm.

My adoption fee is $50.00
