03 Dog of the Month: Macha

Macha, about four years old, is easily overlooked, sitting out of sight in her little bed along the back wall of the shelter. Although a little shy she is incredibly sweet, affectionate and very loving.  Macha is a small to medium sized dog, healthy and sterilised and has a lovely soft black and white coat. She is for sure the perfect addition to any home with or without children but preferably not very dominant dogs… Come to the shelter and take the time to find her, afterwards she will reward you in spades! For further information please call the Care for Dogs shelter at 084 752 5255 (English), 086 913 8701 (Thai) or email contact@carefordogs.org.
