My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Max here! I am a derpy, strong boy who loves being in the yard chasing squirrels. I loved most of the dogs in my former foster home, but not all of them, so I would want to meet any dog you have to make sure we get along. My ideal home would be one that has a fenced yard, or maybe even someone who can take me hunting!
