A little about them

Meet Mack, also known as Mackey and Big Mack—a gorgeous, silly, friendly 8-year-old weighing 72 pounds. Despite his age, he still has plenty of playful energy and loves cuddling, fetch, and being close to his people.

Ideal Home

Mack loves humans of all ages and is gentle and loving with children. He currently lives with five children ages 5–13 and thrives in a lively home. He is very dog-friendly and enjoys being close to canine companions, but he may not be a good fit for a dog who needs significant personal space. Mack deserves a loving, consistent home.
