MAX
Max Born Feb 2023.
Has lived with children so homes with children considered but please read his write up before applying he is a large boy and not fully grown yet.
Max has not lived with cats looked at a neighbours but did not do anything. Has not lived with another dog but was in a walking group with other dogs and has been off lead with them. If they bark at him he will bark back he gets excited to meet dogs when on lead some dogs do not like this neither to their owners.
His hormones seen to have been heightened the last couple of weeks according to last owner and has been pulling on the lead and he has had an increased interest in female dogs. Has had no formal training, is house trained was taught to stand behind previous owner when going out the door.
Likes long cuddles, leans on people, likes to try and sit on your lap. Loves the large tennis balls and toys that squeak. Likes to sit and show you his paw, but usually wants a treat for doing this. Likes to lie in the sun and sleeps for 2-3 hours at a time during the day between walks Likes his paws held and rubbed which makes trimming toe nails easy. Will chase squirrels and dislikes seagull’s dive bombing him who can blame him with the seagulls.
Not keen on going out in the dark especially when it is windy and raining. Can be left a few hours but prefers to know someone is in the house has not been destructive in the home. Likes meeting people but some people seem to be intimidated by his size.
Max has come into rescue through no fault of his own. Elderly unwell family member has had to move into the house and they are very frail. Max wants to sit on their lap and is a bit much for them. He also is not getting the attention needed because of the ill relative needing looking after
