Mackey

🐾 MACKEY is recent surrender from someone who could no longer care for him and he's acclimating to the changes in his life pretty well. He has really taken to one of the family in his foster home but is overall quite nervous. He's in a home with a fenced yard and is doing well adjusting, but he was never outside in his previous home and only used pee pads. So as of now, he definitely needs a fenced yard since he is scared of a leash. Mackey is a sweet dog and relaxes once he feels comfortable. He's been good with the other dogs and the cats in his foster home. We got him up to date on vetting and neutered - we will report back as he settled in more at his foster. He's a small mixed breed of some sort but super cute!<br/><br/>👉 Adoption fee INCLUDES: all vetting to age (including deworming, flea & tick etc), spay/neuter and microchip (if the dog is under 6 months, alter and chip will occur after they're 6 months, covered in full at our clinic or reimbursed partially at a vet of your choosing). If the dog is older than 6 months and not yet altered, we will schedule ASAP (normally within 30 days) at our clinic . We also provide as an incentive a $60 rebate for completion of positive-based training classes. Adoption also includes lifetime support of the rescue.<br/><br/>💜 Please apply via the “Apply to Adopt button or here: www.secondhanddogrescue.com/apply and be sure to select their name from the dropdown to expedite your application!!<br/><br/>✍ APPLICATION PROCESSING: We do most application processing virtually and dog meets will be individually by appointment with ONLY APPROVED APPLICANTS. We are not a shelter and are completely volunteer foster-based, so there is no central place to come see all of the dogs available.<br/><br/>📌 IMPORTANT NOTES: ** Housetraining with rescues is sometimes a work in progress and even if a dog is 100% in a foster's home, it should be expected there will be an adjustment period as a dog adapts to a new environment. This is even more true if the dog has not by chance had their altering appointment at time of adoption. ** Also, we highly recommend some form of 2-week shutdown and decompression for dogs going to a new home for best results. --> Lastly, breed guesses in rescue are just that (GUESSES!!) 99.9% of the time. We do not do DNA testing and our breed guesses are based on appearance and sometimes other traits, but we know the dog breed guessing game is a fool's errand even for those with LOTS of experience.<br/><br/>🗺 ADOPTION AREA: several hour radius of Rochester, NY (Canada within 3 hours IS allowed, except that young puppies need to be old enough to have gotten their rabies vaccination to cross the border - usually around 16 weeks)
