About Max

Max is a charming, playful, and affectionate 3.5-year-old neutered male Retriever mix currently fostered in San Antonio, Texas.

He thrives on human interaction and enjoys being active, with a playful nature that has him jumping right into your space for a cuddle. He’s well-adjusted with other dogs but benefits from slow introductions. Max has been described as a polite playmate during his time at boarding.
