Hello, my name is MACKIE. I am about three years old and as you can see I am very skinny! Stray? Not me! I was turned into the shelter by my owner (along with my buddy who is going to Pointer Rescue). We really don't know what we did wrong. The shelter told us we were surrendered because we were not good hunting dogs. Perhaps we would have done a better job had we been provided enough food to keep us healthy. Maybe our owner thought we'd hunt better if we were starving to death.
Anyway, that's all behind me now, and I am looking forward to a new life as a companion! It will take a few weeks for me to put on some good weight, but that's okay. I also have to learn that I don't have to be afraid of men. Why can't people figure out that we dogs work harder for our people when we love them instead of fear them? (DUH! And they think DOGS are dumb??? HAH!)
I've noticed the cat, but still don't feel well enough to do much of anything about it. Fostered by David in AL.
