Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Maximo! Maximo, or Max/Maxi as we call him here, is a German Shepherd who is a good boy but needs a Shepherd savvy person in his life to help him be the best dog he can be. He is very sweet and when he loves you he LOVES you. He does have some fence/barrier reactivity which is common with Shepherds with people they don't know. He gets along with most dogs, but not all. He has lived with cats and small dogs and reportedly did fine and was surrendered due to a new baby coming into the home (we are told he doesn't love small children, but has lived with all older children without problems). He is housetrained and keeps his kennel clean here. He is a big boy and normally is around 80 lbs. His adoption fee is $120 and includes his neuter, microchip, vaccinations and negative heartworm test. Please call 630-553-9256 or email animalcontrol@Kendallcountyil.gov if you are interested in adopting.
