About Mace

Mace says: I'm not asking for much... just a comfy couch, a loving human, and maybe a few snacks. At 12 years old, Mace is the quintessential gentleman with a knack for relaxation. If you need a low-maintenance companion, he could be your perfect match. This sweet boy thrives on spending time with his people and gets along well with other dogs. His favorite activities include finding a cozy spot, basking in attention, and enjoying quiet Netflix-and-chill evenings with his family. Mace has waited far too long for a home, once hoping to be adopted with his brother, Zero. However, he's shown he can happily thrive on his own as well. While he would enjoy the company of another friendly dog, being the center of someone’s world sounds just as delightful to him. Senior dogs like Mace have an immense capacity for love, and he’s ready to showcase that by finding a warm bed and a family of his own.
