Mack's muscular build and steady gaze belie his quiet, even shy, personality.
"When it comes to new situations, I feel safer letting you take the lead," Mack admits.
There’s nothing shy about Mack's play-style, though. "I leap about like a puppy, chasing balls and toys," Mack exclaims. "My keen sense of smell makes my world an exciting place, which can make me appear independent as I try to take it all in. You’ll be able to tell from my alert eyes that I’m a thinker, ready to learn, ready to bond. It may take some time for me to mature, but with your kind, gentle approach, I have what it takes to be a great companion."
