BIO:

Max came to the rescue as a stray, he was found wandering the streets. A Good Samaritan found him, took him to a shelter, then notified the rescue! We pulled him as soon as we could!

Max is a very friendly, loveable boy! He has a “happy-go-lucky” attitude and just goes with the flow of things! He loves to be outside! Loves to play with other dogs and loves to be around children! If you are looking for a fun-loving dog, who loves to play, and go for walks, but then snuggle up with in the evenings… then Max is your guy!

We are working on simple basic commands such as sit and stay (he’s pretty good at the “stay”, but we are working on the “sit”… his butt wiggles so much when he sits, that he can’t keep still!) We are also working on his manners (he’s a bit of a wild man right now)! He is great with my grandson, who is almost 3!

Max is crate trained and does not mind being in the crate. But he would much rather be out playing or in your lap for a snuggle though!

He is doing well when it comes to potty training. He’s been very good if kept to a strict schedule, and has started to scratch/paw at the door when he wants to go out. He is catching on quickly! He is a very smart boy!

Max would do best with someone that would be able to take him for walks or will have a fenced in yard for him to play in! If you have a child(ren) and another doxie or dog friend for him to play with, that would be even better!

Max does not know that the word “stranger” exists in the human vocabulary! Every human or dog that he comes into contact with, he is eager to meet and eager to please!

Please feel free to contact his foster momma if you have any other questions or would like more info!! Amanda at rablack05@gmail.com

Max is located in Arkansas. Transport (paid or volunteer) can be arranged to get Max to his furever home!
