About Maddox Mac

Meet Maddox Mac! Maddox Mac is a sweet, timid little guy with a gentle heart and so much potential to blossom. At around 4 years old and 14 pounds, this adorable tan-and-cream Terrier has a lifetime of love ahead. He arrived at CAMO Rescue after being transferred from another shelter, and now he’s hoping for a family that will help him thrive. Maddox can be easily frightened; when scared, his instinct is to run and hide. Because he's a serious flight risk, he needs an experienced adopter who takes his safety seriously. It’s crucial to keep him secure, as he can bolt quickly. Although Maddox is heartworm positive, he's feeling great and has already been treated. He just needs to be retested in 9 months to confirm the heartworms are gone. The good news is that he’s making progress! He seems to be potty trained, is improving on the leash, and is good with other dogs. A friendly canine companion will help him feel more comfortable and build confidence. With a little extra time, patience, and understanding, Maddox can learn that the world is a safe place. He needs someone to believe in him and guide him toward a beautiful life. Could that person be you? Adoption fee is $300. Click apply to start the adoption process.
