Mac 11-012 [1]

Mac came to us as our first foster on January 15th. He is a Golden Retriever mix (male) about 2.5 years old and weighs about 60 lbs. He is black in color, but other than that he looks and acts like a Golden!

He is beautiful with the black coat! He has the Golden eyes and when he is out in the sunlight you can see the Golden coloring shine through!

Being that Mac was in a shelter for 4 months and found as a stray we do not know a lot about him. He rode home well in the vehicle ( only had 30 miles to drive). After marking his territory inside, he has not had an accident since. We kept him blocked in the entry way the first couple nights then expanded his territory and he now has access to the whole house even when we are gone.

He is an amazing dog and will make someone very happy!! He is very calm and listens very well!! He does not have any problems with our cat and did fine with other dogs at the shelter, but we have not tested that at our home as he is the only dog at this point. As far as children he loves our teenager, he has not been around small children. We have not seen anything aggressive about him! He loves to sit on laps and cuddle. He loves to play Frisbee outside, gets very excited about that. We have him on a 100 ft. runner and does just fine so a fence is not needed at this point. We thought we had a neuterd male, according to the shelter, turns out that is not the case so his appointment for neuter is set for January 28th! After a couple days of healing he will be ready to find his forever home! He lives with FM and FD in Deer River, Mn.
