Have you met this young fellow they call Mac? Mac is a brindle male who is about 2-years-old. He is not tattooed and was found as a stray in Oak Cliff. Mac arrived testing positive to heartworms. After three rounds of treatments, and seven long months, he is finally heartworm free!

 

Mac passed a cat test and has been living in a foster home with cats for several months.

 

Mac wants to be your best friend! He will follow you anywhere you go, no matter what the task. Provide him with a comfy dog bed or couch, though, and he will happily take a long nap...sometimes on your lap...if you let him. Who loves Mac the most? The Kitty. She LOVES him! Mac lets kitty rub up against him a few times a day. The kitty is always looking for him and doesn't like it when he goes outside to potty. Who does Mac love the most? Besides Foster Mommy, of course, is the resident Greyhound. Mac loves to follow her, do what she does and go where she goes. Mac would make a wonderful addition to a family. He is house trained and very well mannered. He would enjoy at least a dog or a kitty in his house to keep him company. His favorite toys are stuffed animals with bead-y eyes that he can rip out.

-Mac's Foster Mom
