MAX - CHIHUAHUA (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua (short coat). Meet Max: A Resilient Senior with So Much Love to Give! Max's journey started at Visalia Animal Services, where he found himself out of time and on the euthanasia list after completing his short hold. Thankfully, one of our amazing supporters stepped up to foster him, and we got Max out of there as fast as we could! We're unsure if Max's eye condition is congenital or result of an injury, but he likely has little to no vision in that eye - not that it slows him down one bit! When Max first arrived at the shelter, it was also discovered that he has a previously broken jaw. Surgery wasn't recommended, and it's since healed perfectly, allowing him to eat, play, and enjoy life without limitations. Here's what Max's foster has to say about him: "Max is my favorite frosted senior! He may be a little shy at first, but he's full of love once he warms up. While he can be skittish until he trusts you, it doesn't take long with a little patience and care. Despite his rough start, Max is blossoming into his fun-loving self. He enjoys car rides and loves running with the pack to investigate unfamiliar sounds. Belly rubs, vet-approved treats, and yard adventures are some of his favorite things. He's also content to lounge in a cozy bed close to his person. Max is doing great on a leash, handles crate time like a champ, and has had no accidents inside when taken out regularly. He's such a sweet boy with so much life left to enjoy - he just needs the right home to keep him active and loved!" Max is neutered, microchipped, and UTD on his vaccines. Could Max be the loyal, loving companion you've been searching for?
