About Max

Max is a goofy, affectionate Mastiff mix in the Rochester, NY area. At 8 months old, he’s still a big puppy at heart who can’t get enough cuddles and likes to be close by. He gets along well with other dogs and loves children, though he hasn’t met any cats yet. Wrestling with his canine pals, gnawing on bones, and napping in the sun are favorite activities. His coat is incredibly soft and, so far, he’s proven to be a low-shedder. Max is looking for a best friend or a family eager to include him in life’s adventures and show him what the world has to offer. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
