Max is a long, low riding, 45 pound, shaggy medium size dog that has low to medium-energy. He can be a little shy at first and will need some time and patience to adjust in a new environment. Once he's comfortable, his personality begins to shine, and he shows his playful, curious side. He does well with other dogs and enjoys canine companionship. Max is food motivated and already knows "sit" and "wait," which makes him a great candidate for continued training. He does pull on leash, so consistent leash work will help him build confidence and good walking manners. Max is not good with cats and may chase, so a cat-free home is best for him. With gentle guidance, structure, and a patient adopter willing to let him settle in at his own pace, Max has the potential to become a loyal, fun-loving companion.
