Max's Story

Max has been through a lot of changes in 2025. His first owner gave him up due to personal health issues. The person they gave him to had an accident and was unable to keep him after only 1 month. So, he came to us, loving but confused. He loves to snuggle under blankets! He may poke his nose out, but often he's all the way under. He came to us with his father, Ollie, who bullies him so we want a home for Max away from Ollie. Max should do well in a home with other dogs, but likes to eat alone in his crate. He's been around children and did fine, but we'd prefer a home with older kids rather than toddlers which he's not used to. Max is a wonderful companion who would love a home where he can be spoiled with affection. He's got a playful side too. All around, a great little fella. Neuter, vaccines, microchip and dental cleaning all provided! 13 lb. 8 yrs.
