Story
Pippa has a loving, loyal and fierce personality. She loves walks, chicken and rope toys. She needs time to warm up to new dogs but once she warms up to them she’s the best friend to them. She’s 26lbs and eats a diet of plain rice, chicken and veggies. She’s always happy to see you and has a moderate amount of energy. She mostly sleeps through the day and likes to play sporadically throughout the day. Her toys of choice are tough stuffed dog toys and rope toys. She does have an issue with resource guarding her food and bones. She is kennel trained and responds “go home pippa” that is her command to enter a kennel. She is very vocal when she needs to use the restroom and hardly ever goes to the restroom inside the house. She was born in April of 2019 and has been with me throughout my adolescence. Unfortunately we cannot afford to transport her to our new place of residence. We would love if she went to a safe and loving home.

Story
Meet Calvin! Calvin is a 1-year-old Dachshund and Poodle mix — our best guess, but no matter the breed, he’s 100% adorable! Weighing in at about 16 lbs and fully grown, this sweet guy sports a long, wirey coat that will need regular brushing or grooming to keep him looking his best. Calvin is a happy, playful pup who loves other dogs and warms up to people quickly — though he can be just a little shy at first. Once he’s comfortable, he’s all tail wags and affection! Calvin would do well as an only dog or in a home with another playful pup (since he can pester those who aren’t in the mood to play). At home, Calvin enjoys toys, loves attention, and sleeps soundly in his crate at night. He’s not fully housebroken yet and currently wears belly bands indoors, but he was recently neutered and is doing great with a potty routine in his foster home. Leash walking is still a work in progress, so a home with a fenced yard would be ideal. Calvin also thinks chasing cats is fun, so if you have one, it should be a confident, dog-savvy feline. Like many young dogs, Calvin is still learning what’s okay to chew — shoes are his current favorite treasure to “borrow.” If you think Calvin could be your perfect match, please apply on our website: www.trackingintheshadows.com Calvin's adoption fee is $200.  He is fully vetted for 1 year, Spayed, microchipped, & on monthly preventatives. but will need a booster in 2-4 weeks.  Once approved, we will set up a day/time for you to meet Calvin.  Please be ready to take him home within 1-3 days after application approval. *We do not accept electric/underground fences. All dogs & cats in the home must be spayed/neutered & up to date on core vaccines & preventatives in order for your application to be approved.* Please live within 1 hour of Elkhart, Indiana ##2639103##

Story
Meet Glitter Intelligent, affectionate, adorable, and eager to please! I can be a little sensitive to touch from people I don't know very well. I like to take things slow and really get to know you before we get touchy-feely. When we are better friends, I love to snuggle up for some belly rubs and cuddles! I am looking for someone that has experience with food and resource guarding. Some of the MAS staff and volunteers have been helping me practice self control with positive reinforcement training. I am very motivated by food, so training is like a fun game for me! I need consistent structure to help me control myself. I have been making leaps and bounds of progress with my training and protocols and I am eager to please, I know several commands and release cues such as "come", "down", "bed", "sit", "look", "lets go", "yes", and "ok". Glitter is such a joy to get to know. She has such a sweet and silly personality, it's nearly impossible to not love her, she is like a little molasses cookie! Growing a bond with any dog, is special; but especially a dog you know has been through a lot. There is such a rewarding feeling, knowing for this dog, you made a difference. Glitter deserves a safe loving home to get a second chance to experience what a family is. Please note that Glitter has a special meet-and-greet protocol that requires several visits, so she and her potential adopters can get to know each other before Glitter goes home. If you would like to apply to adopt Glitter, please submit an adoption application at www.mackenzies.info DOB: 12/14/2014 Meet-Your-Match Canine-ality color is: Orange Busy Bee! For safety's sake, we are looking for homes with physical fenced in areas. Please fill out our online adoption survey at www.mackenzies.info/adopt/adoption-survey-application/
