Max!

Max is a 6-year-old, 71 lb male Akita/Husky mix with one striking blue eye and a gentle soul. He’s 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. 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. Max was dumped at a kill shelter in NY and was quickly placed on the euthanasia list. He was very frightened and unsure of people. It was clear he wanted to trust and just needed to feel safe. When Max arrived at his foster home, he showed signs of trust right away, and his foster could tell that his trust would continue to grow with time. In just over a week, Max began to settle in and feel much more comfortable.
