Adopt Mac (Macaroon)

Greyhound · Unknown · Puppy

Macaroon is in foster care in Southampton, Hampshire, he arrived in our care on the 12th of April 2026 and he was born in October 2021. This lad is a friendly boy who is going to make a perfect addition to his new family. He enjoys going out for his walks and will trot along beside you. Sometimes Mac can get a bit excited on a lead, he may start the walk with a little more energy, resulting in pulling slightly on the lead, this doesn’t last long and will soon be walking the rest of the walk nicely next to you. He enjoys visiting new places and takes everything in his stride. Mac really is a lovely boy. He just loves to be out and about and is a very happy boy indeed! Fancy going out for a coffee with friends? Mac will be your best friend too and will just love to accompany you. He will happily lay down whilst you have a break and enjoy your drink before it is time to start again. Mac is certainly one chilled out lad! After a nice outing, what more does the boy need then a nice, soft bed and pillow to rest his head on! Mac loves to be cosy and can quite often be found, on a dog bed with his legs in the air! He loves a good head scratch and a tummy rub before drifting off to sleep. Mac loves to be around people, having a lot of fuss and cuddles, he is a very calm boy and enjoys all the attention. He loves his food and will eat his meals very nicely for you. He knows his name and will come to you when called. Mac just loves to have his teeth brushed, he will show you his smile so you can reach all of his teeth, a clever boy he is! He could be homed with another greyhound or on his own and with careful introductions could be homed with a dog of any size. Mac just LOVES saying ‘hello’ to all dogs whilst he is out on his walks, he does this very politely and calmly, what a clever lad! Mac would be fine to be left for a few hours whilst someone worked. He could be homed to a family with children over the age of 8 years. He loves to play and will quite happily amuse himself

About Mac (Macaroon)

What life with Mac (Macaroon) looks like

Mac (Macaroon) is a puppy/kitten greyhound dog waiting at Greyhound Lifeline in United Kingdom.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Mac (Macaroon), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Mac (Macaroon)?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Greyhound Lifeline handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mac (Macaroon) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Mac (Macaroon) if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Greyhound Lifeline will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Mac (Macaroon) already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Mac (Macaroon) isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Greyhound Lifeline early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mac (Macaroon) and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (the shelter's own language). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
