Max's Story

This pet needs emergency placement. Please click here to go to our emergency placement page for more information.<br/><br/>Max is at risk for behavior reasons. Max is dog reactive and was kept in a pop-up crate initially for space. When moved to the dog room, he began to deteriorate, jumping up and biting at the leash, persistently making him a handling risk in care. We have been better able to manage him in a crate in an office, which is not an ideal living situation in the shelter. Medically, he is overweight. <br/><br/>Max is a social, affectionate, and playful male dog who loves being part of the family. He enjoys spending his time wherever his people are, especially relaxing in the living room, and has a wonderful balance of playful energy and laid-back couch potato moments. Max loves car rides and is always happy to join you on your next adventure. He also enjoys playing tug-of-war, spending time with his toys, and earning treats-he isn't picky and appreciates just about any snack!<br/><br/>Max walks 3-4 times a day and has mild to moderate leash pulling. His walks are kept short, usually around 10 minutes, because he tires easily and often enjoys taking a break by lying in the grass before heading home. He is crate trained and is comfortable relaxing in a large crate for up to eight hours when needed. Max also knows basic cues such as "sit" and "stay."<br/><br/>His previous owner described him as a sweet, gentle dog who may look intimidating at first but is truly a big teddy bear. He can be a little clingy at times, but that's usually his way of letting you know he's bored and ready for a toy or some playtime. After getting his exercise and having some fun, Max is happiest curling up for a long nap by your side. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who enjoys both playtime and relaxation, Max could be the perfect addition to your family.
