Each week, the Independent highlights an animal available for adoption at Baypath Humane Society in Hopkinton. This week’s adoptable animal is 4-year-old Mack.

Here is Baypath’s description of Mack:

“Meet Mack! This sweet boy spent over  500 days in the shelter down in Florida and now finally got a big break to travel up to Massachusetts to find his family. All the volunteers and staff from Florida were cheering with joy, as Mack was a fan favorite. He has such a big heart and the sweetest face. He loves to cuddle and give kisses, but is also always excited to go on fun adventures and hikes!

“Mack is looking for a family to keep him active this winter! It’s a new year’s resolution for him to lose some weight. He’s excited for a fresh start this winter. Mack is also excited about making some new dog friends, although he really prefers to have lady friends. He finds them easier to get along with. He’s not sure about cats yet, he hasn’t really met any. Mack would likely do best in a home with kids 10 and older, especially if they can play fetch with him.

“If you think you’d like to start the new year off with this adorable ham at your side, then reach out today!”
