About Maximus

Introducing the absolutely fabulous Maximus, a vibrant 12-month-young boy with energy that can light up a room! 🌟 This handsome lad, with his striking amber eyes, stands proudly at 80 lbs, and he’s all set with vaccinations, heartworm, and flea/tick preventatives. Maximus is living it up with his foster family, where he enjoys the company of kids aged 3 and 6, along with two other dogs—aged 2 and 11. 🐶 Now, let’s talk about this high-energy pup! Maximus is crate and potty trained, but due to his spirited nature and size, he might knock over smaller kids a bit too easily. So, if you have tiny tots and are thinking of bringing Max into your family, a little GSD experience will go a long way! He is indeed a big love bug who thrives on affection, constantly craving those sweet words of affirmation. 💖 Although he can be a little stubborn, Maximilian is food-motivated—which is a trainer's best friend! Just envision this drama king zig-zagging on his leash while he’s determinedly making his way through the neighborhood. It’s a sight to behold! 🚶‍♂️ His car rides? Simply delightful! He loves exploring pet stores, soaking in new experiences like a true social butterfly. 🦋 Now, in a household with multiple dogs, it’s best to have separate feeding times for Maximus to avoid any potential food disputes—because what if he casually decides to munch on another dog’s kibble? 🙈 He's made great strides in learning not to pull on the leash, but practice makes perfect, and he still has a bit of zig-zagging to do! And while he’s good with visitors, he can be a tad jumpy when excited. However, let’s be clear: Maximus is not suited for homes with small dogs or cats, as his play style can be a bit too rambunctious. To top it all off, he’s looking for a big yard to help him run off that energy! So if there’s a loving family out there who understands his needs and the joys of training, oh boy, does Maximus have so much love to give! 💕 Don't miss out on adding this charming, lovable big baby to your family! To give Maximus the forever home he deserves, please ensure you apply through the Buddy App. He’s ready to be your new best friend!
