Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi Everybody, Max
My name is Max and I’m a gorgeous, happy and active bichon of six who loves people and loves to please! Even though I’m not a puppy anymore, I still have the energy of one! Want to play ball? Take a run? Go to the park? Take a ride in the car? Then I’m your guy. I also know how to slow down and snuggle for all I’m worth!
Mom says above all I’m friendly – and loveable! I’m also intelligent and S-M-A-R-T (they are not the same, you know!) and there’s nothing I can’t do or learn to do! Did you also know that when I’m walking I prance like a little show pony? Mom says I’m an ‘attention magnet’ – and that people find me irresistible! Take me on walks and I’ll prance and impress everyone! Max
Like to go for rides? I’m happy to be your wingman! Of course when we get out of the car, I will saunter up to whoever comes by, show them my very best smile and let them pet, fawn over and give me belly rubs to their heart’s content (and mine, too!)
I LOVE other dogs and kids and I love attention. I come when I’m called (that’s not as common as you think!) and I enjoy my doggy foster brothers and my family. To entertain them I do ‘sit’ and ‘shake’ and all the other commands. Mom calls that my ‘dog and pony show’ but, honest! there’s no pony here – only ME!
Dad says that while I’m housebroken and mastered the doggy door in seconds I’m the kind of guy who thrives on his walks. (And since I’m such a people magnet you’re going to want to walk with me everywhere you can!) I’m also happy being a jogging or running partner – just remember the magnet part as people do love to stop and admire me.
I rarely bark (the family appreciates that!) and am great with both kids and adults. In fact, the more the merrier I say – ‘cause if there is one thing I really like it’s having someone to pet me or rub my belly. I’ll sit for hours and hours just soaking up the attention (and looking up at you with my gorgeous brown eyes says Mom.)
Mom says I’m just a great little guy with gorgeous hair who loves everyone. She says I will go to the ends of the earth to earn your attention and affection - and I’m the bestest buddy ever! So if you’re looking for an active, playful, gorgeous and affectionate Bichon who loves to jog, walk and go for rides in the car -- and if you have an active home and another FurKid or two please ask for me – and I’ll be watching for you too!
Your friend in waiting,
Magnificent, Magnetic and Multidimensional Max
