Psst… hi! Maximus here.

I've got the amber eyes and the energy to match—basically a furry tornado with perfect attendance records and zero food boundaries.

My file says I've got energy to spare — adventure buddy applications now open.

I'm a youngster — a little goofy, very teachable, and absolutely ready to grow up beside someone wonderful.

I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.

Born and (almost) raised right here in SKOKIE.

Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.

If all goes well, I could be curled up with my new pack by Labor Day — maybe yours, whether you adopt me or just help me get noticed.

Thanks for spending a minute with me. I'll be right here, tail ready, hoping it's you. — Maximus

About Maximus

Maximus is a high-energy boy seeking a GSD experienced home! Max has the most beautiful amber colored eyes, a rarer feature for GSDs. He is 80 lbs and current with all vaccinations, including heartworm and flea/tick preventative. Max lives with his foster family who has two children, ages 3 and 6 years, and two other dogs, ages 2 and 11 years. He is crate and potty trained. Max does well with children, but due to his energy and size he can be a bit much for smaller children. We would only recommend him to families with small children who have prior GSD experience and understand the commitment to training. In multi dog households, separate feeding time and space for Max is suggested. He has zero food aggression but will eat other dog's food if given a chance. Max does well on car rides, and has enjoyed going to pet stores. Max does well with visitors in the house but can be a bit jumpy at times. Max responds well to correction, walks fairly well on leash. We do not recommend him in a house with small dogs or cats.

Maximus is listed by German Shepherd Rescue INC in SKOKIE, IL. The rescue handles the adoption — Pawsada helps the right family discover Maximus.
