Maxwell

Description

My name is Maxwell, I’m about 2 years old, and I’m a handsome Cane Corso with a soft side. I was dumped at a Central California shelter with my brother and sister. I was scared, confused and then separated from my siblings. People kept walking past my kennel, staring at me and sticking fingers through the gate. I growled because I was terrified — and that landed me on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, AZ Mastiff Rescue saw past the kennel behavior and gave me a chance. And guess what? I’m doing GREAT. I’m shy at first, but give me a little time and I warm up quickly. Once you’re in my circle of trust, you’re IN. I am extremely dog friendly and I must go to a home with another dog, preferably a confident female. My best friend right now is Maka, a 1-year-old female Corso. We run, wrestle, chase Jolly Balls, play in the pools and have an absolute blast together. I’m house trained, clean in my area and I LOVE routine. Playtime, back inside, cookie, relax, repeat. My favorite treats? Pretty much ALL OF THEM — but a thick cow cheek roll or Nylabone makes me very happy. My ideal adopter will have Cane Corso or guardian-breed experience and understand structure, rules and boundaries. Kids are unknown, so older children only at this time. I have already survived the scary part. Now I need someone willing to show me how amazing the rest of my life can be.
