Petunia's Story

I am a huntress with a master's degree in squeaky toy thrills! A fair warning to the squirrels, stray cats, bunnies, and other live action squeaky toys that dare to think they stand a chance at escaping my game! It is important to me that a respectable bond is built between us. I know I am out-of-this-world beautiful but I prefer to be admired from a distance...at first. I am unapologetically selective about my entourage, but once you're in my loop of trust, say goodbye to your personal space and hello to my daybue of affection! Unwinding from a day of fun with some snuggles and tummy tickles is my idea of ultimate bliss! I would be best suited as the only pet in our life together, as sharing attention...or toys...or food...isn't really my strong suit. Moreover, someone experienced in canine lingo will be best equipped to understand my quirks. While its true that I am a little hard headed, my curious nature and intellect is the perfect blend of charm...occasionally too much for my own good. I enjoy problem solving to get my way, and to keep you on your toes! Having a larger than average brain does come with some risk of mischief if I'm left to find my own objective. If you're looking for a loyal car ride companion, or a reason to place an Amazon order for new puzzle games, submit a MAS adoption application for yours truly! DOB: 11/4/2021 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/

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.
