About Max

Meet Max! He’s a 1-year-old Lab mix with some Collie and Bully traits who brings joy wherever he goes. Weighing about 60 lbs, Max is a friendly, playful boy known for his enthusiastic greetings, as if every human is a long-lost friend. You can often find him chasing balls, engaging in tug-of-war, or enjoying his world-class zoomies. Although he brings a lot of energy, he can entertain himself and loves his canine foster siblings, even if they're seniors who sometimes tire of his high spirits. At home, Max is a good boy in his crate, napping quietly until it’s time to play. He’s never shown signs of food or toy aggression. Since arriving, he’s made impressive strides in his training. While he initially had a tendency to pull on the leash and counter-surf, his progress has been significant in just a few weeks. Max thrives in an environment that offers structure and consistency; he would do best in a family that can provide training and guidance. While he hasn’t been tested with cats, he is great with children of all ages, though older kids may be a better fit due to his size and exuberance. Ready to make a new friend?
