Max is a Buddy in ALL senses of the word. He is a handsome and very intelligent 6-7 yr Shepherd/Lab mix; up to date with shots, has been neutered and is housebroken. This big boy has slimmed down and is looking great now. He is very loveable and affectionate with people and wants to be wherever they are at all times. I have had the opportunity of interfacing with Max at the Shelter and I am so impressed with this dog. He is the type that doesn't need a leash and is just happy to follow you around wherever you go. Max has been known to be jealous of the other animals in the home, so he would be best suited to a home where he is the only one. He really enjoys going out for long walks and walks very well on the leash. Max would love a nice fenced-in yard and a family that wouldn't ignore him, but would include him in their day to day routines. I tell you, this is one special dog.
