Dallas's Story

If you're looking for a loyal ranch hand with a heart of gold, saddle up and meet Dallas.<br/><br/>This handsome cowboy is as sharp as they come and takes real pride in learning the ropes. Dallas has been working hard on his training and is eager to show off just what a good boy he can be. He loves having a job to do, whether that's chasing down a game of fetch, figuring out a puzzle toy, or learning something new alongside his favorite people. Give this boy a challenge, and he'll be all in.<br/><br/>But don't let his hardworking spirit fool you—Dallas is just as happy clocking out for a little affection. After a day's work, he's more than ready to mosey over, climb into your lap, and cash in on all the cuddles and kisses you're willing to hand out. His sweet, people-loving personality is every bit as impressive as his good looks.<br/><br/>Dallas would do best with older children who can appreciate his playful enthusiasm. Like any good cattle dog worth his salt, he has some strong herding instincts, which means smaller critters tend to catch his attention a little more than they should. Because of that, a home without little critters will be the best fit for him.<br/><br/>This curious cowboy is always wondering what adventure might be waiting on the other side of an open door, so he'll need a family that's mindful when coming and going to help keep him safe.<br/><br/>Dallas is the whole package: handsome, affectionate, eager to learn, and always ready to ride shotgun on life's next adventure. If you're looking for a faithful partner who's equal parts brains, heart, and charm, this good ol' boy is ready to hang his hat at home with you!<br/><br/><br/>D.O.B: 5 / 19 / 2024<br/><br/>For safety's sake, we are looking for homes with physically fenced-in areas.<br/>Please fill out our online adoption survey at www.mackenzies.info/adopt/adoption-survey-application/

Mackenzies Animal Sanctuary's Adoption Policy
Mackenzie’s is a N0-KILL dog Sanctuary that is dedicated to helping abused, abandoned, and neglected dogs find forever, loving homes. We help (when room is available) other shelters and rescues before they have to consider euthanizing due to medical concerns, behavioral challenges, or lack of space. As a true “home-along-the-way” we are passionate about loving, advocating for, caring for, and getting to know each individual dog for the duration of their stay with us. Our adoption goal is to match applicants with their perfect forever dog based on personality, sociability, and energy level that suits your lifestyles. Our adoption program is very thoughtful and thorough to ensure both you and your new dog have a happy and successful relationship once you go home together. Adoption Criteria: Adoption visits are by appointment only. For safety’s sake, we require a physically fenced-in area. We DO NOT do same day adoptions, at least two adoption visits are required. Adopters must be at least 21 years of age. Established home dog(s) must be up to date on vaccinations. Established home dogs(s) must have an introduction to the MAS dog(s) you’re interested in. What to Expect from Our Program: The first step in adopting your new best friend is submitting your adoption application online. BE HONEST! Our application is designed to help the adoption team learn about you, your lifestyle, and what you are looking for to best match you with the appropriate dog. You will receive an email confirmation that we have begun processing your application. Once your application is approved, we will invite you and your family to visit the sanctuary and meet with the dog(s) you are compatible with. Upon meeting and spending time with the dog(s), we will go over their notes on behavior, health, and sociability. We believe full disclosure of the information we know is key to helping you make the best decision and finding the best fit for your family. Once you have narrowed down which dog is the right fit for you, a second visit will be scheduled. After the 2nd visit, we will provide you with additional information on your new forever friend (microchip details, rabies certificate, and their medical history report). We will also send home any medication(s) your new dog is currently prescribed, including their next dose of heartworm and flea/tick prevention. We will go over your new dog’s paperwork and answer any questions before finalizing the adoption! If you already have a dog(s) at home, we require a dog introduction at the second visit to ensure your new dog is accepted into your pack before going home. We take all the dogs on a short walk before going to a quiet building together to observe their interactions. Our trained staff will discuss a plan to help the dogs integrate for the smoothest transition into living together.
