Max is a 6-year-old, 71 lb Akita/Husky mix with one striking blue eye and a gentle soul. He's neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and fully house-trained, with no accidents in his foster home! Max truly loves life. He is a beautiful, intelligent dog who is obedient, eager to learn, and very in tune with the people around him. Max already knows most commands and is a quick learner who enjoys working with his handler. He builds strong bonds with people when he's given a little time and space to get to know them. Once he feels safe, his calm and happy personality really shines. Max was dumped at a kill shelter in NY and was quickly placed on the euthanasia list. He was very frightened and unsure of the people around him. He would gently take treats, drop them, and only eat them once the person stepped away, clearly wanting to trust but needing to feel safe. When Max arrived at his foster home, his trust grew quickly, and now he is calm, happy, and enjoys being around people. He loves walks, exploring new places, and going on car rides. Max also has a sweet, playful side and enjoys carrying around his favorite toys — especially his duck, avocado, and little mouse. Max thrives with structure and enjoys relaxing in his crate after walks. He may be a bit shy at first, but once he trusts you, he becomes a loyal and devoted companion. With love and understanding, he will reward his person with a lifetime of devotion.
