Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Maxxum is a very sweet male pug who only wants to please his people. He has not been taught any social skills up to this time, but he is quick to learn. He appears to be getting the idea that pottying is done outside and has not had any accidents in the house for a while now, but since this is a new concept to him, he may have accidents from time to time. He is used to wearing a belly band when left alone and he does not mind having one on at all. Maxxum was in so much pain with his infected teeth when he first arrived, he could not eat and couldn’t concentrate on training. Since his neuter two weeks ago, he is a different dog. He acts like a puppy and is so very interested in everything. He is learning to play with the other dogs and he plays nicely—he is not aggressive in the least. He is crate trained, but does not like being locked up in a crate. He is happy being in a room with a baby gate, should he need to be left alone. He is learning to walk on a leash and is coming along nicely. He is learning what snow is and is now venturing out into it more and more, finding out that it isn’t so bad! He is a passive dog and gets along with all the other dogs and cats in his current household. But he loves people most of all! He will make a great pet for anyone who is willing to love him and be patient with him while he learns the ways of the world. Maxxum is being fostered in Manlius, NY and his adoption fee is $275.00.

Please read about adopting from us on our home page by clicking on the link to the right of the furkid's picture.
NOTE: Due to the volatile price of gas, getting multiple volunteers to help with long distance transporting is no longer feasible. We have listed the town and state where each dog is being fostered. Please consider how far you are willing to travel when filling out the application. The foster home will usually volunteer to help with transport for a reasonable distance.
