Story
Max hasn’t been dealt the easiest hand in life. Due to severe hip issues, he is considered a special-needs dog and will require a major surgery in the future. While the exact course of treatment is still being determined, Max’s adopter or foster will need to be willing to stay in contact and work closely with us as we move forward together. Currently, Max receives Librela injections and joint supplements to help keep him comfortable in his daily life. But Max is so much more than his medical history. Max is an absolute joy to be around. He has a wonderful temperament with people and is sweet, goofy, bouncy, and full of playful charm. Watching Max experience a snow day is pure magic, his happiness is contagious. He also loves soaking up the sunny days and lounging around, happiest when he’s near his favorite people. At HSOC, Max has done well with several other dogs. Because of his hips, rough or overly long play sessions can cause him to limp, so a home with lower-energy canine companions (or dogs who understand when playtime is over) would be ideal. A meet-and-greet will be required to ensure any potential dog friends are a good match. While in a temporary foster home, Max showed some separation anxiety, which is not uncommon for shelter dogs adjusting to big changes. Our trainer, Jim Kats, is happy to provide a transitional lesson to help Max settle comfortably into his new home. Max is special in every sense of the word. He’s looking for someone who can see past his challenges and appreciate the incredible, loving dog
