Where Did You Find Your Dog?

Mac was adopted from the Humane Society of Southwest Missouri.

Tell Us About the Moment When You Knew that You Two Were Meant for Each Other.

We knew we had to have Mac when we saw him go from the scared timid dog in the kennel to the happiest dog I’ve ever seen – because he was going to get to spend time with people rather than being alone. Mac is still this way, always being the happiest of our dogs when I get home, making sure he gives me a welcome home hug every time! Mac feel completely in love with us that first day and how can you not fall in love with a guy who gives you his whole heart?

How Has Your Hero Changed Your Life?

Mac is my first dog I’ve ever had (I was a cat person before) and he has opened the world of dog rescue to me! Seeing the transformation Mac made out of he shelter and knowing all the dogs still stuck in the shelter became my main thoughts. Because of Mac we later adopted our other dog, Harley, and are fostering for a rescue (you could say he convinced me to become a dog person!). I’ve changed my career goals because of Mac, now wanting to one day have my own doggie daycare/rescue and I can’t wait for what the future holds! Together we are going to help as many dogs as we can to get that special moment of being adopted into their forever family!
