My story

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

Current Location: Accokeek, MD

Macey is a shy girl with a soft heart. She starts timid but leans in for affection once she feels safe. She is gentle, submissive, and likes the comfort of kind people and friendly dogs.

ENERGY AND PERSONALITY
She is skittish in new situations and needs a patient home that moves slow and builds trust. She warms up faster to women and needs more time with men. She is underweight and needs steady care and love. She enjoys backyard zoomies and relaxed time inside. She settles well once her energy is out.

TRAINING AND BEHAVIOR
Macey is doing well with crate training, house training, and leash work. She responds well to food and praise. She understands no and is learning sit, leave it, and stay. She has not needed much correction because she tries hard to figure out what you want.

SOCIAL LIFE
She loves other dogs and feels braver when she has a dog friend to follow. She enjoys exploring the yard and watching the world at her own pace. She likes meeting new people once she has time to assess and relax.

BEST HOME FIT
Macey will thrive in a quiet home with patient adults or older kids. A gentle dog companion would help her confidence grow. She is sweet, loving, and loyal. She needs someone who will give her space, time, and steady reassurance.

MEET AND GREETS

We primarily rely on meet & greets for potential adopters. Approved adopters may meet adoptable animals at the home of the animal's foster, or possibly in the adopter's own home.

More about this rescue


Operation Paws for Homes, Inc. rescues dogs of all breeds and ages from high-kill shelters reducing the numbers being euthanized daily. We provide foster homes where they can get the love and attention needed before finding their forever homes. Our organization provides pet adoption services in Virginia, Washington DC, Maryland, and parts of Southern Pennsylvania. Operation Paws for Homes, a 501(c)(3) organization, is 100% donor funded and could not save these dogs and fulfill their dreams of being united with their forever families, without the dedication of our incredible adopters, fosters, donors and volunteers. Sadly, without our help, all of these adoptable animals would face almost certain euthanasia - usually within days or hours of arriving at the shelter. Each year we take in hundreds of wonderful animals who were left at shelters by no fault of their own.
