About Max

Meet Max! This lovable 3-year-old has been waiting patiently for the past 6 months. He’s now with Augusta Dog Adoptions and he’s more than ready to find a home of his own. Active, sweet, and full of potential, he’s the perfect match for someone looking for a fun companion with a gentle heart. Max can be a bit shy when faced with new situations, but with patience and reassurance, he opens up beautifully. Once he trusts you, his affectionate and playful side really shines. He enjoys the company of other dogs, but he’ll need slow, thoughtful introductions to help him feel secure and set him up for success. With time and proper guidance, he can blossom into a wonderful canine friend. If you’re ready to give a deserving pup a fresh start, come meet Max—he just might be the perfect addition to your family.

Ideal Home

Max may be a bit too much for very small children, but older, dog-savvy kids could be a great fit.

Ongoing Health

All dogs are spayed/neutered, tested for heartworm and tick-borne diseases (if old enough), microchipped, and vaccinated for rabies (if old enough), distemper/parvo and bordetella. They are also treated for internal and external parasites. Many dogs also receive extensive medical care such as dental work and major surgeries.

Training & Support

Max can be a bit shy when faced with new situations, but with patience and reassurance, he opens up beautifully. He enjoys the company of other dogs, but he’ll need slow, thoughtful introductions to help him feel secure and set him up for success.
