Happy Tails
“I adopted Camila from MCACC in May of 2023. She has lovely house manners, is playful and funny, walks patiently, takes treats politely, and could not be more lovable and friendly to me and everyone she meets (adult and child). She still walks about the house and yard wagging her tail contentedly, and gazes at me with lovey-puppy eyes. I encourage anyone wary of adopting a shelter dog to review MCACC's detailed handling/evaluation notes, and take a chance as I did. It now breaks my heart to think of Camila going so long without a loving home!”
