MACEY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Macey Best Guess for Breed: Wire haired terrier mix Best Guess for Age: 12.5 years as of May 2026 SEX: Female Approximate Weight: 15.4 lbs as of 5/13/26 Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: DC area foster home All about Macey: Macey was incredibly loved by her owner, who unfortunately passed away. She is now twelve and a half years old, but you wouldn't know it by the way she trots on walks! She also lost one eye due to infection (before she landed in the shelter) but she's unfazed by it. And she is just the best little pup. Here's what her foster says about her: "I can't say enough about what a great dog Macey is! Fantastic with other dogs! She greeted my 8-, 19, and 48-lb resident dogs in a happy, friendly, and polite way. She loves being around the other dogs and watches them play (the oldest of them is less than half her age) but doesn't join in. Great on leash! She is at her best when it's nice and cool out (about 60 or below) and trots fast, her tail waving happily, when she's in a pack with one, two, or three other dogs. On solo walks she'll alternate between deep, thorough sniffing and happy trotting. Nothing about her walks tells me she is 12 years old! Very well behaved in the home. She goes into her crate when I simply point at the door, and is quiet in there. She sleeps there overnight and sometimes just hangs out there by herself during the day with the door open. I've left her out of the crate when I was out for an hour or two and she did great - she just chilled on the floor. Incredibly sweet and loving. She wants to be at my feet when I work and right by my side when I'm taking a break on the sofa. I have many dogs competing for my attention and she isn't pushy - she waits her turn and is oh so happy when she gets my attention. She has a preference for cooler spots on the floor and cooler temperatures - sunbathing isn't really her thing. As a senior with a rounder frame, Macey needs help getting up onto the sofa, into the car, and up flights of steps. Macey will do best with someone who can lift her when necessary while also allowing her to walk so she can continue working on reaching a healthier weight. Macey is a wonderful pup with so much life in her and so much love to give. She deserves all the best - and her forever family will be getting the best too!"
