Mac

Meet Mac, a 66lb, 7-year-old American Bulldog/Boxer mix seeking his perfect home. A cuddler at heart, Mac loves napping and thinks he's a lap dog. His loyalty shines, and despite a bark, he's incredibly friendly.

For 2 years, Mac's been best friends with our 12-year-old male dog, enjoying naps and cuddles. Yet, he seems bothered by our 3-year-old and, with a new mobile baby, it's unfair to subject Mac to chaos. He'd thrive in a home without small children, relishing both indoor and outdoor lounging.

Mac's sociable, great with men, women, and older kids, and has shown friendliness to mild dogs. While untested with cats, he's never been aggressive. Mac seeks a serene home, free from the hustle of young kids. If you can offer Mac the peaceful environment he craves, he's ready to be your devoted companion.
