Maxwell, a small shepherd mix adult

The rescue’s notes on Maxwell, a small shepherd mix adult

**MAX, The 38 Pound Rescue Pup** Max is a gorgeous, very sweet, and small Belgian mix dog who was surrendered to the shelter because he had a bad UTI, and the owners did not bother to have him checked at a vet, when in truth, Max may have been hit by a car. He had a torn diaphragm, and his organs were being pushed through. We quickly raised $6,500 for emergency surgery before things could worsen. Max has healed beautifully, and he is now ready for his forever family! Max is a gentle, friendly pup who loves to snuggle and enjoys going for walks. He is playful yet calm at home, and he gets along well with other dogs. Max is affectionate with adults and would do well in a family with older children. He is eager to please and has a sweet, loving temperament that makes him a wonderful companion. Sadly, his foster is moving to a smaller home with no room or yard for Max. Max is 5 years of age, neutered, and up to date on his vaccines. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Max, please submit an adoption application.
