Meet Macy

Our sweet senior girl, Macy came into our care as she wasn't getting along well with the young child in her previous home. Before any further incidents (snapping at the toddler-aged child) took place, her family made the very tough decision to find Macy a home without young children - and also live out her golden senior years without the worry of young, active, sometimes unpredictable behaviors that young children can portray. Macy had been with her previous owner since she was around seven months old. She was originally adopted from a rescue in South Dakota. As you can imagine, this total change of environment is quite overwhelming for Macy. She is adjusting to not only a new space, but also many new people, other new dogs nearby, etc. She is a very loving, sweet girl - just looking for her new person(s) to love on. We know she will continue to warm up to everyone at Safe Haven as she continues to build confidence in her new surroundings, and builds bonds & trust with our volunteers.  Macy's previous family believes she would do best in a quiet home - maybe where "her people" are home often - as sudden or fast movements, sounds, etc. can be frightening to her. She is definitely looking for a home with no young children - but instead a person(s) she can build a trusting bond with and continue to come out of her shell for her golden years. She lived in a home with other dogs and did well with them. Macy is all up-to-date on her vaccinations and was previously spayed upon her arrival at Safe Haven. If you're looking for a quiet, mature furry companion... Macy may be the perfect girl for you! Please complete an adoption application found on our website (www.wesavepets.com) as the first step of the adoption process if you're interested in meeting/adopting Macy. Once this application has been received, a Safe Haven volunteer will reach out to discuss the next steps. 

Adoption Process
