MAX

Meet Max, the senior German Shepherd! Max came into the Shelter after his previous guardians could no longer care for him. Max lived in a home with children under 12, teenagers, men and women. Max spent the majority of his time outdoors in his previous home. He knows “sit” and “paw” and does well riding in the car. Max has history living with other dogs but does not have history with cats. Staff have observed that Max enjoys being with people and staying close for attention. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw! Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
