About Mac
Meet Mac, a young and exuberant dog who is committed to making the world his playground. He's friendly, confident, and remarkably well-adjusted, especially for a pooch his age. Mac is an intelligent, high energy dog from the Kelpie and Heeler mix, known for their robustness and agility. A perfect companion for those looking for an active lifestyle!
Mac shows the potential to blend well with a family that includes teenagers or children above 8 years. However, the home must be committed to working one-on-one with Mac as he acclimates, in particular managing his arousal levels.
A knowledgeable, breed-experienced home is preferred as Mac requires a focused approach to training and socializing. As part of his growth journey, the new family will help him manage his excitement around other dogs, facilitating positive introductions and interactions. For now it is best Mac be the only-dog in his home.
While Mac is currently reactive, with the right training and guidance, this exciting young pup will positively benefit from a dedicated owner who will help him channel his energy productively.
Although Mac is a bundle of energy, he still has lots to learn—including toilet training. This pup is seeking a forever family that will help him develop these skills, providing a patient, structured, and loving environment where he can thrive.
