My story

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

Max is a 1-year-old yellow Lab who came to us as a stray. When he arrived, he was very skinny and covered in sores—but through it all, he remained incredibly sweet. Max has a playful personality and will throw his little body around when he’s excited, then melt into cuddles once he calms down.
He’s shown some dog selectivity, which may just be due to the shelter environment, so a meet-and-greet is a must. We don’t have history on cats or kids, but Max seems curious and not aggressive.
This resilient boy is ready for a loving home where he can thrive and finally get the care he deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion, Max could be the perfect fit!
