What kind of home would be best for me: We are seeking a home with an experienced dog owner and someone who is home more than they're away. Macky is vision impaired. He is also sensitive around his face. What is my personality like: Macky is a senior guy who still has a lot of love to give. We know that he was a family pet for many years, and know that he lived in a home with other dogs. But that is about where the history gets blurry. Macky has old eyes and his vision is slightly impaired. He hears, though we aren't sure how much. Because of both of these he startles easily. Startles lead to growling, but this is very easily corrected by telling him no. In his foster home, Macky really wants to be a lap dog. He is quiet and asks for affectionate. He is incredibly calm, even in a foster home with many other dogs. Macky is house trained and crate trained. He rides well in a car. Macky really wants to be someone's lap dog. Macky does require sedation grooming. How do I act when I first meet new people: Curious Tips and Tidbits: House trained: Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule as long as a physical reason doesn't keep them from being trained. A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule.
