Friends of Macon County Missouri Animals

Our group started in 2019 because our founding member, Willadean Jackson, was upset when she saw the terrible living conditions at the Macon City Shelter (basically a dog pound). She reached out to others on Facebook and we created a non-profit to assist animals in Macon County Missouri (in the small town shelters and in the very rural areas). Since then, we have been helping animals in neighboring Shelby County as well because there's no humane society in our two counties. We are basically in "no man's land" when it comes to getting assistance for animals in need. Our goal at first was to build a shelter, but we could see that would cost more money than we fundraise. In the past 5 years we have grown greatly in numbers, numbers of members and animals saved. We, like most rescues, we are overwhelmed by the number of emails, messages, and calls we get from people needing our services. Now our main goal is to provide spay/neuter services for our community and try to slow down the pet population. We have been blessed to have several large donations to help provide free spay/neuter surgeries. We have also worked with the city of Macon to improve the conditions of the shelter. Now it's a much better place for a dog to find itself than it was years ago. It hasn't been easy getting to where we are now. We have had members come and go, but right now we have a great group of people that truly go out of their way to help the animals in our area.

Meet Rosie

  Are you looking for a very loyal lap companion? Rosie may be just the dog for you. Although very timid and shy, she will warm up to her “person” and will want to be a frequent flyer to your lap or chair. Rosie is a young girl. She is approximately one and one-half years old. She was found neglected and abandoned with 4 other dogs, so of course she has some initial trust issues. Her foster reports that she spends most of her time on her lap, seeking that reassurance and comfort she missed out on in her previous life. Rosie has come a long way, and still has a ways to go, but she is as loving as she can be once she feels safe. This lovely dog is house broken, crate trained, up to date on all vaccines, heartworm negative and on monthly HW and flea and tick prevention, spayed, and microchipped. She gets along with other dogs her size. She has frequent outbursts of the zoomies!!  She prefers the comfort of a person. Her ideal home would be on the quiet side with a fenced yard and a playmate.   Young children may be too energetic for her comfort level. Rosie is a work in progress, and like all neglected and abandoned dogs she just needs time and space.  will be available for adoption within the next few weeks to the right home. She will be a spectacular girl onceosieRshe realizes that she is loved, safe, and will never be neglected again!!
