About Macho Man

Meet Macho Man, an incredibly resilient soul looking for a loving forever home. At around 11 years old, he has faced neglect and cruelty but is now learning what it means to be safe and cherished. Macho was rescued from a dire situation where he was not only overweight but was living in unsanitary conditions. It’s heartening to see him now enjoying life, primarily through shorter walks and birdwatching—his favorite pastime. Macho is getting the care he needs and is making progress with his potty training. We believe he is a Brussels Griffon/Terrier mix, weighing about 25 pounds, which he should ideally reduce to around 20. He is very friendly and gets along well with both dogs and cats, making him a perfect companion for a family. Now, he’s seeking a compassionate individual willing to offer him the warmth and stability he has long deserved. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
