My story

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

Lil Mac may have once had a reputation as a ladies’ man, but he’s recently discovered that with patience, trust, and plenty of treats, guys can be pretty great too! His foster dad has completely won his heart, and watching Mac’s confidence grow has been truly special. This gentle, sensitive soul is learning that the world isn’t as scary as he once thought—and he’s taking big, brave steps every day.

Mac recently began training sessions and is doing incredibly well. He’s eager to learn, soaking up new skills, and proudly showing off just how smart he is. His confidence is blossoming, and it’s a joy to watch him come into his own.

Lil Mac thrives in a calm, cozy home where he can relax and feel safe being himself. Once you earn his trust, you’ll have a devoted snuggle buddy for life—loyal, loving, and happiest curled up right by your side. He’s been cat-tested and does wonderfully with feline friends, too! Mac would do best in a home without young children.

Do you have a soft spot for sweet underdogs? Whether you’re a dog-loving lady or a kind-hearted soul like his foster dad, Lil Mac might just be your perfect match.
