MAX

Description

Max came to the shelter on 4/14/26 after being left behind when his owner was incarcerated. Upon intake, he was noted to have several skin issues that have significantly improved with specialized veterinary care and treatment while in the shelter.Max has a minor bite incident on his record prior to arriving at the shelter. However, throughout his stay, he has been consistently friendly and easy to interact with. Staff and volunteers report that he enjoys attention and has been cooperative during routine handling and care.Max is social with other dogs and has demonstrated appropriate canine interactions. He does, however, struggle with the kennel environment and shows signs of kennel stress. He frequently jumps up and attempts to climb or escape from his kennel, indicating that he would benefit from a home or rescue placement where he can receive more enrichment, exercise, and stability outside of a shelter setting.Overall, Max has been a friendly and social dog whose quality of life would likely improve significantly in a home environment.
