My story

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

Hey there, I'm Max, the charming Pit pup with a heart of gold, ready to find my forever family! At just 7 months old, I'm still discovering the world around me, but I'm eager to share my love and affection with someone special.

Let's address the elephant in the room first - my initial shyness with new people. Yep, it's true, I may need a little time to warm up and build trust, but once I do, I'll be your most loyal companion. With a patient and understanding owner, I know I'll gain confidence and show you just how loving and affectionate I can be.

Now, about my tendency to get into the trash if left unsupervised... Yep, I'll admit it, I've got a bit of a mischievous streak! But hey, who can resist a little scavenger hunt now and then? On the bright side, with proper supervision and a slow feeder to help me pace myself, I know I can learn to make better choices and be the well-behaved pup you've always dreamed of.

Sure, I may be a bit nervous around loud noises and crowds, but who isn't? With a loving and supportive environment, I know I'll gain confidence and learn to navigate the world with ease.

Oh, and did I mention how much I love squeaky toys? Yep, they're my absolute favorite! Whether we're playing fetch in the yard or cuddling up on the couch, I'll always be by your side, ready for some fun and excitement.

So, if you're looking for a cuddly and affectionate companion to join you on all of life's adventures, look no further than me, Max! With a little love and patience, I know we'll make the pawfect pair. Let's make some unforgettable memories together - I can't wait to meet you!
