My story

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

Age: 7 years

A little bit about Max:
-Kids: Has history living with children. All interactions should be supervised. Recommended to go to a home with people 8 years and older due to size.
-Cats/Small Animals: No history with cats. All interactions should be gone slowly and over a period of time.
-Dogs: Has history of living with dogs in the past. Potential for dog in home with successful dog-to-dog interaction. Reactivity has been noted in shelter.

Max is a fun-loving, high-energy boy looking for a family who’s ready for adventure. This enthusiastic guy has lived with kids before and would love a home that can match his zest for life, but we recommend going to a home with older children, as max can be quite enthusiastic and forget how big he is, and he is still working on his ideal doggy manners. Max thrives when he has plenty of exercise, whether that’s long daily walks, exploring the outdoors, or lots of time playing in the yard. Max has lived with dogs in the past, but he’s shown some reactivity toward other dogs (as well as trucks and buses) so his future family will need to help him continue working on calm, positive experiences. When Max wants attention, he’ll let you know, as he’s quite the talker and isn’t shy about barking to get your attention! Max does have some medical care that would be required by his future family, but our adoptions team can tell you all about that. Underneath all that energy, though, he’s a big-hearted boy who just wants to be included and loved. If you’re looking for a spirited, outgoing companion who will happily join you on every outing, Max might be your perfect match!

More about this shelter

CONNECTING LIVES SINCE 1922

From our earliest beginning, Calgary Humane Society was more than a shelter. As Calgary’s first-established animal welfare organization, connecting the lives of animals and people while providing essential animal services to the community remains our central priority.

Today, Calgary Humane Society (CHS) shelters almost 5,000 homeless animals each year. In 1922 we set out to help as many animals as we can and we will continue to do so by fostering the values of respect, compassion, commitment, teamwork, integrity and innovation.

Our mission is to help as many animals as we can.

Our vision is using innovative strategies to lead, inspire, and educate in the humane treatment of companion animals, fostering an enlightened community that consistently demonstrates respect and compassion for all animals.

Our dream is a community where animals are valued, humanely treated, and live enriched lives.

Calgary Humane Society is committed to creating a better tomorrow through education and collaboration.
