Welcome back Steph and family!
We love it when old friends return!
Steph used to be a Staff member and we have missed her since she left. We are so excited she has returned as a Volunteer and brought back her awesome kiddos, Marlee & Chase as well!
“Our day at Mackenzie’s…all wonderful dogs up for adoption!”
“Finished our last Volunteer training at Mackenzie’s… we saw three dogs.. kids loved it!!! Thanks Dot… Olive… and Dulcie, what a fun day!”

Rewards of Rescue:
One of the greatest rewards of the rescue work we do at Mackenzie’s is seeing our dogs find their Forever Homes! We take pride in the amount of quality work that goes into helping every dog in our program to become the best dog they can be. From training and behavior work – top notch medical care – quality food and exercise, to all the time we humans love on them – our dogs are getting ready! When they lock eyes on their Forever Family, it truly is a magical moment and a blessing to us all.

Rocket taking off and heading home!
Another home visit today! Rocket will be heading to his new home! A huge Thank You to everyone that worked with him! Your support of him has made his Forever Home possible! We will follow-up with some fresh family portraits soon.
Miss Dulcie is heading home today as well! Thanks to all of the Volunteers that helped to give her a great experience at the Sanctuary. First the stairs, now the world! I’m sure we will be seeing more photos of this lovely lady soon too!
Dulcie finds her forever home!
Blessings everyone! Have a great weekend!
Our Volunteers Rock!
A Big ‘Thank You!’ to all our Awesome Volunteers!
The weather outside has been frightfully cold and yet our trusty Volunteers keep comin’.
Mackenzie’s Animal Sanctuary is always in need of Volunteers. Volunteering can be very rewarding and a great way to meet new people, spend time with friends and family and of course, help the dogs at the Sanctuary.

Cuddles loves her TLC time!

Dogs like Stella appreciate the peaceful walks with a friend!
It is because of people like you, committed to the betterment of our local animal community, that make our mission at Mackenzie’s possible and for that we are forever grateful!
