My personality

My story

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

Meet Max 💙 — a 1–2 year old Havanese–Shih Tzu mix with a heart as fluffy as his coat.

Max is the definition of a gentle soul. He’s dog, cat, and kid friendly, making him the kind of easygoing companion who fits right into just about any home. With his laid-back personality and low drive, Max isn’t looking to run the show — he’s happiest simply being right by your side, soaking up your presence and offering quiet, constant love.

Every day, this sweet boy is blossoming more and more, gaining confidence and showing off just how special he is. Max has a soft way about him that makes you fall for him without even realizing it — one look, one cuddle, and you’re done. 🥹

If you’re searching for a calm, affectionate, and truly sweet companion, Max is ready to be your shadow, your comfort, and your very best friend. 🐾💫

Take the Pet Home

Additional adoption info

A home check may be performed when taking the pet home. This is up to the discretion of the rescue founder and may be performed upon her decision. This step will ensure our animals are going into the best possible homes and will never be treated as less than a best friend and companion ever again. We are dedicated to the best possible fit for each animal that comes into our care.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We are 100% foster and volunteer run. Therefore, the first step in meeting one of our adoptable pets will be to submit an adoption application by following the link posted above to either our website or directly to our adoption application. Once an adoption application has been approved, we can set up a meet and greet with the applicant and the animal the applicant is interested in. Please allow 24-72 business hours to receive an answer back about your application, as all of our volunteers and fosters have additional jobs outside of the rescue and use their spare time to provide care to these animals in our program.

Adoption events can also be found posted on our Facebook and Instagram pages located under the name "Happy Tails Canine Rescue". These events are open to the public and do not require an adoption application in advance to meet any of our pets that will be attending.
