Maci Mae

Intake Date: 27 March 2026 ----- Age at Intake: 2 yrs ----- Breed: Dachshund/Jack Russell Terrier mix ----- Size: 15 lbs (should be 12–13 lbs) ----- Status: owner surrender ----- Compatible with: dogs, children, dog-savvy cats ----- Suitable for: home with structure, boundaries, and ideally a fenced yard ----- Medical/Behavioral Needs: weight management, needs guidance with manners around cats ----- Additional Notes:<br/><br/>🐕 Meet Maci Mae — The Tiny Boss with a Big Personality 🐕<br/><br/>Maci Mae is a spunky little dachshund/terrier mix who came to rescue as an owner surrender when her energetic, bossy personality proved to be a bit too much for the senior dog in her previous home. While she meant no harm, her “I’ll take that, thanks” approach to life (including meals 😅) and constant activity level weren’t the right fit for a quieter, medically fragile companion.<br/><br/>At around 15 lbs, Maci Mae is currently rocking a few extra pounds thanks to her talent for sneaking second servings—but she’s now on a strict “eat your own food and only your food” plan and is already on her way to a healthier, happier weight.<br/><br/>Don’t let her sass fool you—this girl is incredibly sweet. She loves to cuddle, happily gives kisses, and enjoys playing (especially with her buddy Silo). She’s got that classic terrier confidence and curiosity, which sometimes shows up as her deciding it’s “fun” to chase certain cats (looking at you, Bastet 👀). That said, she’s been wonderful with Sylna, the paralyzed kitten, which tells us her intentions are playful rather than anything more. She’ll do best with confident, dog-savvy cats or in a home where her playful curiosity can be redirected with structure and guidance.<br/><br/>Why Maci Mae will steal your heart:<br/>🐾 Sweet, affectionate, and loves to cuddle<br/>🐾 Fun, playful personality with lots of character<br/>🐾 Small size, big presence<br/>🐾 Great with dogs and enjoys playtime<br/>🐾 Full of spunk and ready to keep life entertaining<br/><br/>Maci Mae is looking for a home that will embrace her personality while also giving her the structure she needs to be her best self. With a little guidance (and portion control 😄), she’s going to make an incredibly loyal and fun companion.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a small dog with a big personality, a love for snuggles, and just the right amount of sass, Maci Mae might be your girl. 🐾<br/>If interested in meeting and potentially adopting, please read the adoption requirements and complete the adoption application located at forbellessake.org.
