Javee's Story

Javee is a little sidekick with a BIG personality who thinks his person is the greatest thing since peanut butter! He is affectionate, goofy, playful, and happiest when he's right where his people are. Lap? Absolutely. Pets? Yes, please! Kisses? He's got plenty of those to give back. Following you around like a little shadow? Obviously. <br/><br/>But don't let that cuddly side fool you... Javee is no wallflower once he's comfortable! He loves to play, can absolutely fly when the zoomies hit, and has a little bit of playful mouthiness to make sure you know he's got opinions. When new people come around, though, Javee is more likely to hang back and observe than rush over for introductions. He likes to take his time, check in with his people, and make sure everything is okay before joining the fun. A quieter, predictable home with teens or adults will help him feel confident enough to let that full personality shine. He's also perfectly happy to have a cat roommate!<br/><br/>As for other dogs? Javee has lived with plenty of them and can happily coexist with a canine roommate, but he's definitely a "you do your thing, I'll do mine" kind of guy. He appreciates dogs who understand personal space and don't feel the need to be in his bubble. In other words, he's not looking for a canine BFF... he's looking for a roommate who pays rent in the form of respecting his boundaries. <br/><br/>If you're looking for a devoted little companion with a goofy streak, a playful side, and a WHOLE lot of love for his people, Javee might just be your guy! Check out the MAS website below to fill out an adoption application to meet this lovable guy!<br/><br/><br/>D.O.B: 4 / 15 / 2023<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.
