MAX - German Shepherd Dog (medium coat) Dog For Adoption

View more

luxurious black and brown coat and perfectly alert ears, he’s a textbook example of the breed’s classic good looks. Much like his breed standard, Max is also incredibly athletic and intelligent. He thrives on daily activity and would love a job or purpose to keep his sharp mind and strong body engaged. He already knows basic commands like “sit” and is potty trained, but could use a bit more leash work and help with impulse control (he just gets very excited to say hi!). Max would do best with a strong, experienced handler who can guide him through unlearning some of his more overeager habits - like his enthusiastic jumping up - and keep a close eye on those escape artist tendencies. With lots of loyalty in his heart and endless love to give, Max is ready to be your next adventure buddy and deeply devoted best friend! -5 year old black and brown German Shepherd -55 pound neutered male -up to date on all shots and preventatives, so ready to go home with you today! -came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on 6/2/25 as a stray -spectacular example of the breed's classic good looks, with a splendid brown and black shock of luxuriously thick fur and pert ears always perked at attention -in addition to having his breed's stunning beauty, Max also has the breed's smarts and sporty nature - he is incredibly athletic, so will need daily walks to exercise both his brain and his body - or even better, a job! -he will also need a strong and experienced handler to help him practice good behaviors and unlearn some more naughty habits, like his adorably overeager tendency to jump up and demand attention -while Max knows some basic commands, like sit, and is potty trained, he could use some additional leash work, given how he can pull a bit, and some work on mastering impulse control -finally, Max could also benefit from an extra watchful eye, as he could possibly be a little escape artist - he was *very* interested in the fence and the gate - is deeply loyal and has lots of love to give - would make a wonderful addition to many families!
