My personality

My story

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

Hello! My name is Max.

Location: Chubbuck, ID
Age (Estimate): 3 Years
Sex: Male/Neutered
Microchipped: Yes
Current Vaccines: Yes
Parasite Prevention: Current
Weight: 11 lbs.
Children Under 10: No
Children Over 10: Yes if small-breed savvy
Friendly With Dogs: Yes
Friendly With Cats: Unknown
Potty Trained: Mostly (uses potty pads when inside for long periods of time)
Crate Trained: Yes
Leash Trained: Mostly
Adoption Fee: $400
Additional Notes: Max arrived at SSH on 11/4/2024. He's timid at first but will come around when given some time.

He's not shy about giving kisses and pawing at your leg or hand for extra ear scratches. His favorite place is wherever you are but he really likes snuggling on the couch. If you work from home, he'd love a bed under your desk. He deeply loves his people.

Max tolerates other dogs but struggles with dog pack dynamics. He can be pushy and will try to be dominate (barking, posturing, nipping) with other older males but loves to play with puppies of any sex. He's incredibly sweet but we feel he would do best in a home where he is the only pet. We also think he would do better in a home with no small children.

Max was passed around to several homes before coming to us so we're really excited to find Max his final, furever home!

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Potential adopter fills out an application. They may or may not have met the pet at this point. Provide personal and veterinary references.

2.

Meet the Pet

Meet the potential pet and ask questions. All members of the household must be present. This will be done in your home.

3.

Sign Adoption Contract

Sign the contract and review the terms of the agreement as well as pay the adoption fee which range from $0-$500.

4.

Take the Pet Home

Please have collar/harness, leash, crate, anything you need to safely transport your new pet.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process all starts with the application. Most have a pet in mind already but not always. We'll then schedule a time for you to meet the pet. From there we conduct a home visit and meet all members of the household and all other pets. We want to make sure all pets show potential to get along with the new pet. Should all go well, you'll sign the final adoption agreement, pay the adoption fee, and take home your new buddy!
