About Max

Meet Max, an adorable Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix who’s about 10 months old and weighs 11 pounds. This playful puppy loves to cuddle and is always eager to be by your side. He barks when strangers approach, but he quickly turns into their best buddy. Max thrives on activity, so he needs a family that can keep him engaged and active. He enjoys playing with other dogs and would love a dog sibling to match his playful spirit. Children in the home should be 10 or older, as they need to understand how to interact gently with small dogs. While Max is well on his way to being housetrained, he needs regular potty breaks. A fenced yard would be ideal for him to run and explore. If that's not possible, frequent walks will help meet his exercise needs. Max's foster mom has taught him some basic commands, and he’s a smart little guy who would benefit from puppy training classes. His new family should be home often, eager to involve him in daily activities, and willing to give him lots of love. This little guy is ready to fill someone’s home with joy and companionship. Whoever adopts Max is bound to be lucky! Click apply to start the adoption process.
