My story

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

Macaroon is a 5-year-old heeler mix who has not had a kind life but so deserves one! A very timid girl she would thrive in a calm, secure, structured, dog-savvy home environment with maybe another quiet dog or two. Macaroon has been in a temporary foster home and is ready to move up to a longer term foster or forever home.
Mac is healthy, vaccinated, spayed, and heartworm free. She is also quiet, and timid at first with both people and dogs, but once she warms up loves to be loved on. She also loves to play with toys and enjoys a game of fetch. Mac would benefit from more socialization, leash work, and a kind, patient, dog-savvy family that can set boundaries while also giving lots of TLC. Her energy level needs a fenced yard for play. Mac would be perfect for a calm person or couple with a steady routine that can introduce her to new situations and walks in small doses. She's very food motivated, house trained, and loves her crate -- her safe space.
Mac longs to trust in people and be an active companion for hiking, the beach, day trips, and yard play! If you can be her hero by fostering or adopting, please submit an application to ewenityfarmsbch.com.
She needs acclimation to car rides, walking out in public, and exposure to men. There is no animosity or reactivity, we just pancake or shake. She would be a project dog for a retired couple, who have no pressing events like vacations, grandkids coming etc. If you give her time and patience she will come around. Mac has been in a temp situation and sadly they have to travel, and do not feel she is ready for that. She is being returned to her former temporary foster. A new foster home for her is imperative to her moving forward. If you can help please submit an app to ewenityfarmsbch.com..

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require potential adopters to fill out an Adoption Application.When that is approved we can arrange for the prospective adopter to meet the dog they are interested in. We do require an adoption contract to be signed at time of adoption. We have a virtual home-check process (don't forget to submit photos of the exterior of your home!) Adoption fees range depending on the age of the dog. We do have dogs located at qualified fosters throughout the state and also out of state.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Since all rescue dogs live in foster homes, there is no single facility to meet pups.

You will need to contact Ewenity Farms HDH to make arrangements to meet the rescue dog after you have an approved app on file. Apps can be filled out at ewenityfarm.org

More about this rescue

We are a small, foster-based rescue organization located in Southwest Florida. Being small helps us give more one-on-one attention to individual dogs and their needs. Rescued dogs are kept in our homes and treated as our own. Herding dogs are unique. They are highly intelligent and require much of the owner’s attention. The dogs are evaluated, when they come into the rescue, for any temperament and health issues. Then they are given basic obedience, socialization and rehabilitation as it is necessary.

It is our sole purpose to find forever homes for these loving, wonderful dogs that have been discarded through no fault of their own. All adopted dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on shots, heartworm negative, micro-chipped, and on flea and heartworm preventative.
