Born in 2013, it sent Mackenzie to the Mia Foundation, which rescues and protects abandoned animals suffering from congenital disabilities.

He was born with a cleft rupture that splits from the upper lip to the palate, and he could not eat or make any noise.

In addition, he suffered from aspiration pneumonia, which is caused by foreign substances entering the airways, and was faced with death several times.

But when he got healthy, Mackenzie began to show peculiar behavior.

They acted as guardians by finding animals left alone and separated from their mothers because of their natural disabilities.

Mackenzie approached not only small puppies but also puppies heavier than himself, licked them carefully, and was there.

Mackenzie’s unconditional affection transcends the species.

She first approached cats, birds, squirrels, and turkeys, showing interest. And then began caring for goats ten times larger than themselves.

Shelter employees were thrilled, saying, “We are trying to become mothers for animals that are suffering the same as they are.”
