In the US, a Los Angeles rescue centre is urgently searching for a new home for Macey, a six-year-old Shepherd-Husky Cross.
As reported by CBS News and shared by People, the poor dog was left all alone after her family was arrested by immigration officers during a raid in Palmdale, California, in 2025.
The dog initially faced euthanasia but was saved at the very last minute by the charity GSL Rescue: "Her previous family had already had her spayed. She had clearly been loved very much."
A heartbreaking separation
The rescue team managed to find her a home, but she was soon brought back to the shelter. A second adoption attempt also ended in disappointment, with the new family deciding to return Macey once again.
"Macey was brought back a few weeks ago, and another family was interested because she is so good with children," the rescue explained. "Unfortunately, they brought her back because she had an accident on the carpet."
A race against time to save Macey
In a social media post, the charity reminded people that dogs need time to settle in before they can truly feel at home. They believe the sudden and traumatic separation from her original family is likely behind her struggles to adapt to a new environment.
Time is running out for Macey. She cannot be sent back to a state shelter, as she would risk being put on the euthanasia list once again.
