My story

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

Max was left on our front porch one morning, and while we don’t know anything about his past, we do know what an incredible dog he is. At about 2 ½ years old and 95 lbs, he’s a big boy, but also a well-mannered one! Max is house-trained, non-destructive, and knows "sit", "paw", and "down".

Max loves to romp outside and play with toys. He particularly loves to catch toys and play tug-of-war. But the moment you show him love, he will abandon play time for his favorite -- cuddles. He loves to get pet and will lean into you for head and back scratches. He will even sometimes try and go underneath your legs to get closer to you.

Despite his size, Max has a timid side. He can be easily startled by loud noises and needs a little time to warm up to new people and places. He warms up quicker with women and children -- and treats are always a good way to get on his good side, too. Once he feels safe, you’ll see his playful, loyal, and incredibly sweet personality shine through.

So far, Max has met a few female dogs. He did well with them, but did try and mount one a few times. He has met kids and loves them, though keep in mind he is a large boy and he definitely likes to lean and sit on you. He has yet to meet a cat!

If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who’s equal parts playmate and loyal companion, Max may be the perfect match.
