Max is a cheerful and playful guy, known for being affectionate. While he loves to be active and enjoys his daily outdoor adventures, he is also a cuddle bug who doesn’t mind getting close to his favorite humans. Although he can be a bit overwhelming in his excitement, he means no harm; he’s just a big-hearted dog! He gets along well with other dogs after slow introductions and enjoys playgroups. Max has a special knack for respecting cats, too, and would thrive in a home with a confident feline friend. Additionally, he is great with children, but his family should continue helping him with his jumping habit when greeting. Max is a high-energy companion who loves his daily walks and playtime. He thrives on interaction and is always up for a game of fetch or tug-of-war. Though he can pull on the leash when excited, ongoing training will help him refine his manners.
