My story

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

Mac is staying in his home until he is adopted. Meet and greets will be arranged for approved applications! (application can be found at caninerescue.org)

Handsome Mac is a 3 1/2 year old Husky/Shepherd mix and a big fella weighing around 70 pounds. He is fully house trained, and able to be left alone in the house. He is good with kids, adults and other dogs. He has not interacted with cats and other animals so not sure how he will respond to those. He is a homebody that likes to be with people and always wants to be near you. He's a loving dog and will be your best friend if you scratch him behind his ears. Mac will get on his hind legs to give you a hug if you signal him. Mac likes to go for walks but requires a harness or other contraption to help with pulling. His favorite toys are ropes to play tug of war with. He will also play with a ball but he likes to play keep away. Mac knows basic commands and will walk behind you up and down stairs instead of running past you. He isn't afraid of loud noises or thunderstorms but a green garbage bin is his worst enemy. Because Mac is so much of a homebody he hasn't done well with being left alone in places like a groomer and boarder. He is anxious and causes himself to get sick in these situations so has recently started anxiety medication to help with this and any stress in these situations. Due to work changes and constant travel of the family they would like to place him with a loving family who will be there for him. Does Mac sound like the dog for you? If so, send in your application!

If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application found at caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email your question to adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.

We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.

*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them.
