NB: We do not rehome interstate or to applicants under 25. It is our policy not to rehome dogs in the Sunraysia area. As rescue groups have transported thousands of homeless dogs from Mildura and Sunraysia pounds over the last decade, we do not intend to send any back there.

Lovely Mac is in search of a new place to rest his paws after his person moved into a no pets allowed situation. This gentle boy has low vision, so it takes him a little time to gain confidence in new surroundings, as he maps out his place and his pack. He will need love and guidance from his new people, which he will reward with his affection and unwavering loyalty.
Mac enjoys a daily stroll and is great on lead. He loves the company of other small dogs and would do well with a doggy companion at home. Most of all, though, Mac loves his people and relies on them for affection and warm laps in which to snuggle. He will follow you around, waiting for you to sit down, so he can access his favourite place, your lap.
Mac is toilet trained but needs reminding to go out, and may have the odd accident while he finds his feet; understandable as he is navigating a lot of change fairly late in life. He has not had much training but given his kind and gentle nature, he is very easy to manage and certainly enjoys being handled with care. Mac is used to sleeping on his people’s bed, where he sleeps soundly through the night. He is friendly with people and dogs alike. He has not been tested with children, but given his vision challenges, fast moving small people may be a little overwhelming for him.
Mac is an inside boy and clearly used to being a companion dog. He will do best where he has a person at home most of the time, with or without a canine pal.
If you are looking for a new friend and loyal lap warmer, Mac may be your man.
Microchip Number: 981010001823180
Source Number: RE120211
Medical Notes: Mac is having a major dental. He is blind in one eye and limited sight in other. We will take him for specialist eye check.
All our dogs are desexed, C5 vaccinated with intranasal, microchipped, wormed and flea treated. All necessary vet work such as dentals, surgery, eye treatment is also carried out. We are no longer heartworm testing as we have not had one positive test since we began in 2006. If a dog comes to us on heartworm treatment this is continued.
