UPDATE: JANET HAS BEEN ADOPTED! JACK AND CHRISSY ARE STILL AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION.

Come and knock on our door... we've been waiting for you! ✨📺

Meet Jack, Chrissy, and Janet—our adorable trio of 17-week-old Chihuahua puppies who are ready to star in the next chapter of their lives: finding forever homes!

Just like the classic sitcom, these three bring plenty of laughs, personality, and charm wherever they go. Whether they're exploring, playing with toys, learning new tricks, or cuddling up after a busy day of puppy adventures, they're sure to keep life entertaining.

Each puppy is looking for a family that will provide positive reinforcement training, enrichment, socialization, and all the love they deserve as they grow into wonderful companions.

🏡 Ready to make one of these stars part of your family? You can start by filling out an adoption application online at macsshelter.org/adoptions!

Three adorable puppies. Three unique personalities. Three chances to find your perfect best friend.

Who will be opening the door for one of them?

Sometimes the hardest stories aren’t about a lack of love—they’re about life changing when no one expects it.

Trader Joe is 8 years old, and through no fault of his own, he found himself needing a fresh start.

After his owner became ill and was unable to return home, Trader Joe and two other dogs remained in the house he had always known while a dedicated family member did everything they could to care for them during an incredibly difficult time, but eventually it became clear they needed help finding a new path forward. Thanks to our friends at The Karens, this sweet boy is now safe with us and ready for the next chapter of his life.

We know one thing for certain: Trader Joe was loved.

You can see it in his gentle nature, his trusting eyes, and the way he still wants to be close to people despite all the change he’s experienced. He didn’t ask for his world to be turned upside down, but he’s choosing to move forward with hope.

Now, all he needs is someone willing to give him that same chance.

At 8 years old, Trader Joe still has so much love left to give. He deserves peaceful mornings, cozy naps, walks with his favorite person, and the comfort of knowing he’ll never have to wonder where he belongs again.

Come meet Trader Joe Tuesday through Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and help us turn a difficult ending into a beautiful new beginning. His forever family is still out there—we just need to help him find them.

Join us in wishing a very Happy Birthday to our wonderful team member, Linda! 🐾🎉

For the past three years, Linda has been an invaluable part of the MACS family. As our bookkeeper, she works tirelessly behind the scenes to keep everything organized and running smoothly, helping ensure we can continue making a difference for animals in our community every single day.

Her dedication, kindness, and hard work often happen quietly in the background, but they have a huge impact on our shelter and everyone who walks through our doors.

Linda, thank you for everything you do and for being such an important part of our team. We’re so grateful to have you with us and hope this year brings you happiness, good health, and plenty of reasons to celebrate.

If Apollo could talk, we'd love to hear the story behind that photo on the left.

When this sweet boy first arrived, he was in desperate need of some TLC. Fast forward to today, and just look at him! The smiling face on the right says it all. ❤️

Apollo is a 2-year-old terrier mix with a playful personality, a love for people, and a bright future ahead of him. He enjoys attention, playtime, and being part of the action. At 19 pounds, he's the perfect size for adventures, couch cuddles, and everything in between.

His makeover may be complete, but his journey isn't. Apollo is still waiting for the most important thing of all: a forever family.

Could that be you?

Visit Apollo at MACS Tuesday–Saturday from 11AM–2:30PM or start the adoption process today at macsshelter.org/adoptions!

At just 8 months old, Kerry Carpenter is finding shelter life a little tough. Why? Because all he really wants is to be with people.

This handsome Shepherd mix is friendly, playful, affectionate, and always ready to be part of the action. Kerry loves attention and would much rather be spending his days exploring, learning, playing, and making memories with a family than waiting in a kennel.

Like many young Shepherd mixes, Kerry will thrive with enrichment, exercise, training, and plenty of love. He’s a smart boy with so much potential, and we know he’s going to blossom in a home that can help him continue building confidence and having fun.

If you’re looking for an active, loyal companion to share life’s adventures with, Kerry may be your perfect match. Come meet him Tuesday–Saturday from 11AM–2:30 PM and see why we’ve fallen in love with this special boy. ❤️
