Macey
Macey's story is one where the stars aligned just right. She was a rescue from my first job but I managed to find her breeders, learn her history, recover her coat, helped her lose weight, worked through her reactivity, and eventually compete in a multitude of sports, shows, and grooming competitions. She is the dog that can do it all.
