All about Max
Animal ID: 2000478717

Max is a 1 year old male Newfoundland/Mix who weighs 110 pounds.

Max is on a foster to adopt sleepover! Wish him luck!

Introducing our big friendly giant Max! This gorgeous guy is a certified shelter staff favourite and is basically just one REALLY enormous teddy bear. Max is incredibly social and will introduce himself to every new person unsolicited. Some people might mistake him for a young bear as he trots over to them for pets! He's still an adolescent dog and is getting used to his growing adult body, so he can be rather clumsy. Watching him bound and zoom around is the most ridiculous sight! Despite being somewhat of a puppy, he is very well-behaved. He takes treats gently, walks loose on leash, goes to the bathroom outside for the most part and adapts well to new situations. He has even done well being alone for up to 3 hours! Max has never lived with children before, but has had positive interactions with toddlers. He has no history with cats or small animals, but has shown potential to live peacefully with them based on his laidback demeanor. In his previous home, he did live with a senior extra large dog for some time and there were no concerns! As a Newfoundland, it's important that his future adopters can commit to regular grooming (seriously, it's a full time job) and are willing to deal with some drool. Due to the heavy double coat, you may need to get creative to keep Max cool in the summertime. In short, Max is a dream and we know he won't last long!

Max is:
- good with kids, supervised interactions required
- unknown with cats, slow intros required
- open to dogs pending successful intros, lived with senior XL dog before

Note that many dogs do not reach full size until they are about a year and a half old. The weight listed here is the dog's current weight.
