Shrimp's Story

Shrimp is proof that some of the best things really do come in small packages. This adorable little guy has a whole lot of charm packed into his tiny frame—and that one precious snaggle tooth certainly doesn't hurt. <br/><br/>Shrimp is a professional lap companion, and honestly, he seems to think that's exactly where a little guy his size belongs. Whether he's soaking up attention or simply hanging out close by, he's happiest when he can be near his people.<br/><br/>He was an absolute angel when he met one of our child volunteers, happily enjoying the attention and showing us just how sweet he can be with kids. He also met another dog and took the whole experience in stride. He wasn't particularly interested in becoming instant best friends or starting a wrestling match—he was more of a "you do your thing, I'll do mine" kind of guy. We think he could happily share his home with another mellow dog who appreciates the same easygoing approach.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a small companion with a big personality, a soft spot for laps, and a tooth that deserves its own fan club, Shrimp might just be your guy!<br/><br/><br/>D.O.B: 7 / 10 / 2025<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.
