Sir Hector's Story

50% gentleman, 50% derp-dog and 100% inquisitive...they say curiosity killed the cat, but what did it do to the dog? Lets find out together!<br/><br/>Spending time with my favorite people is by far one of the greatest thing in the world to me! I live for booty scratches and am so excited to snuggle up on the couch. Sometimes I get a little too excited and end up falling off the couch...Don't worry, I am a hefty dude and wont hurt myself in my buffoonery. Some of my additional antics include chasing my shadow, playing with my food bowls, doing acrobatic somersaults for belly rubs, snuffling around into tight corners, and doing very "graceful" cannonball splashes in the MAS pond!<br/><br/>You may have noticed I have some pretty unique eyes. When I was rescued, I had what is called entropion (a condition in which my eyelids rolled inward against my eyeballs) that was surgically repaired and cured. This is something that should not cause me any future issues now that it has been corrected.<br/><br/>I am such a happy goofy guy - guaranteed to keep you laughing even on the most stressful days! But once I get all my "giddy's" out, I am a complete gentleman and love to just laze about soaking up your company. It truly goes to speak of my resilience, because before I came to MAS, I was in a home that was not good to me...and they threw me out like I was garbage. You know what though, I know better. One man's trash is another man's treasure, and I am definitely a treasure to be had! Though, the experience has made meeting new people a bit intimidating for me...I am hoping that somewhere out there, there is a family that understands. Preferably a family that doesn't have other pets...<br/><br/>If you are looking for a diamond in the rough, check out the MAS website below and submit your adoption application for a chance to meet me and bring me home!<br/><br/><br/>DOB: 4/6/2020<br/><br/>For safety's sake, we are looking for homes with physical 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.
