e on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. This quiet, handsome dude is Max Solis! Max appears to be a Labrador Retriever/Terrier mix about a year old. He was dumped on the side of the road with three other dogs. That was the past and Max is looking up to see what wonderful things the future holds for him! He is crate trained and walks well on a leash. Because he can be a bit timid and cautious when meeting new people, and he is protective, he's not a good match for a home with small children or a lot of new people coming and going. He's very smart and once he's learned to trust someone, he is a friendly fellow. To set him up for success, his new family should plan to gradually expand his world by introducing him to new people slowly over a few months and with lots of high value treats (eg, pepperoni). Max likes toys, is playful and likes the water. He has been in small play groups and done well with most other dogs, but he would also love to be your one and only! We strongly recommend that all our dogs attend obedience classes, not only because you get to learn commands together and it offers an opportunity for confidence building and socialization for the dog, but because it helps to strengthen that ever-important bond between the dog and his human family. And it’s lots of fun! A well-mannered, obedient dog will be welcomed most anywhere you take him. Max already knows "down" and would love to learn some more with you! Though a fenced yard is an ideal place for a dog to romp and play safely, for Max the gate had better be super secure and Max-proof 'cause he can figure out how to open them! If a yard isn't an option then lots of daily leash walks and opportunities to play off-leash in a dog park is the next best thing. A tired dog is a good dog! Dogs of all ages also benefit from mental stimulation – think puzzle toys and games. Max is affectionate, eager to please, even-tempered and gentle. He acts interested when meeting new dogs or going to new places. Can you offer Max the bright future he's longing for? Fill out an application today - don't make him wait any longer!
