Meet Max, a charming 3-year-old Terrier mix weighing in at a delightful 16 pounds! 🌟 This little bundle of joy is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm negative, ready to find his forever home. Max is whimsical and playful, but he’s got a few quirks that make him truly special! 💖 Though he adores children, he’s best suited for families with kids aged 9 and older. You see, Max has had quite the independent upbringing and is learning the ropes of human companionship. With a little guidance and a consistent routine, Max is set to become the best boy ever! Initially, he may seem a bit cautious around strangers — it’s just his way of warming up! Just give him some time to adjust, and soon enough, he’ll be the king of snuggles, happily curling up on the couch with you. 🛋️ Max knows commands like Sit, Down, and Come, and he’s a pro at using the doggie door! His previous adventures as a backyard dog have taught him valuable life lessons, and now he’s eager to learn and play, especially if there are treats involved! 🦴🎉 Max thrives in the company of other dogs and would love to have a larger, older female buddy to romp around with. And let’s not forget about his playful fetch sessions! When Max brings the ball back, he might just drop it at your feet, ready for another round! 🏀 He’s already made remarkable progress with his house-training and manners, and he sleeps soundly in his crate, even through the night. Plus, he’s been tested with a cat — he gave a bark and didn’t chase, so he might just be a tolerant little fellow! 😺❤️ Max is looking for that special someone with experience, someone who can provide him with a steady routine and gentle leadership. The bond you’ll share with him will blossom into a joyful companionship that’s absolutely priceless! 💞 To adopt this incredible joy, remember to apply through the Buddy App! Max can only be adopted in the Austin area, so if you’re nearby, don’t miss out on this lovely little guy! 🏠✨ Lil’ Paws is a small, all-volunteer organization, and Max lives in a loving foster home instead of a facility. By adopting him and applying through the Buddy App, you’re helping support his journey to a forever home! 🌹 Let's do this, potential adopters! Apply through the Buddy App today!
