Yorkshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Whitewater, Wisconsin

Meet Macie, your sparkly, early-rising queen with a heart of gold 💖👑

Nickname: Mace of Base, Macie Moo
Breed: Yorkie
Age: Golden Oldie perfection
Weight: 14 lbs of fabulous
Rescue: Albert’s Dog Lounge
Fostered in: Madison, WI

Macie didn’t just enter her glow-up era… she OWNS it. Surrendered in Georgia when her family moved, this little lady has decided that chapter is closed, and she’s now fully focused on living her best, sparkliest life with someone who appreciates a queen.

Let’s talk personality: Macie is joy on four legs. She struts on walks like it’s Fashion Week and you’re just there to carry her water and hype her up. She greets each day like it’s the best one yet (cue: “Walking on Sunshine”), with wiggles, hops, and a “what adventure are we going on today?” attitude.

✨ The Real Macie (aka the 3-3-3 glow-up edition):
Macie is a textbook example of the 3-3-3 rule. She takes a minute to settle in, but once she does, her little routines and quirks shine through in the best way.

She is a woman of routine:

Early riser (we’re talking consistent, within a 30 minute window… impressive, honestly)
Breakfast = immediate priority
Evening snack + melatonin = bedtime soon after (and yes, you should also be in bed… she has standards)

She’s gentle, funny, and low-drama, but she will:

Let you know when it’s potty time (or when you’ve been gone too long. RUDE.)
Have the occasional accident if left too long (she is a senior queen, after all)
Politely remove herself if other dogs are too loud. She prefers calm, respectful company

Macie may be a little hard of hearing… or just selectively listening. The jury’s still out.

👑 Her Royal Preferences:

People: Loves her humans deeply, especially ones who are home a lot. Slight “meh” energy toward men, but no issues, she's just a girls’ girl at heart.
Dogs & Cats: Yes, please. as long as they’re chill and not chaotic gremlins.
Kids: Older, respectful kiddos who understand “gentle hands only” (especially with treats because she gets enthusiastic!)
Sleep: In her bed next to yours… but let’s be real, she’d LOVE to upgrade to your bed
Fashion: Pink, sparkly, and ideally paired with imaginary cat-eye sunglasses and a crown

📊 Macie Stats (because details matter):

Bark-o-meter: 3/10 (she’s classy, not chaotic)
Snore-o-meter: 1/10 (just a tiny sleepy purr)
Shedding: 5/10 (spa days encouraged 💅)
Activity level: Moderate. Walks, sniffing, exploring, repeat

💛 Health & Care:
Macie is doing great! She has a slight heart murmur that the vet isn’t concerned about and is only on monthly preventatives. She eats a mix of high-quality kibble and canned food like the refined lady she is.

🏡 Her Dream Home:
Macie is looking for a home where:

Someone is around often (retired? work from home? perfect.)
Life is a little quieter, a little calmer
Early mornings are embraced, not resented 😄
She can stick to her routine, soak up love, and be treated like the royalty she clearly is

Macie isn’t just a dog, she’s a VIBE. She’s sweetness, sparkle, routine, and loyalty all wrapped up in one tiny, fabulous package. If you’re ready for early mornings, loyal companionship, and a whole lot of personality… Macie is ready to rule your heart.
