Hi, I’m Max!
Age: 5 years old
Energy level: Low – medium. Happy to nap inside, happy to go for walks.
Size: Medium
✅Dogs, cats, kids
Medical:
- Hypothyroidism (AKA underactive thyroid). Max will require daily medication to manage his thyroid levels for the rest of his life. He will need to have his thyroid levels retested in 6 months time (November 2026). The Rescue will cover the cost of this test.
- Ongoing, managed skin issues. Max’s untreated hypothyroidism impacted his skin severely. It has improved greatly but he will need to continue on daily medication (ketoconazole, prednisone, ciprofloxacin, amoxicillin) to manage his skin for roughly 6 more months (November 2026).
- Max is a cryptorchid (undescended testicles) and will need to be neutered once his skin clears up fully and he’s off his skin-related meds. The rescue will cover the cost of his neuter.
- Partially vaccinated and not microchipped. The Rescue will cover the cost of final vaccines and microchip implant once his skin is cleared up and he’s no longer on prednisone.
Meet Max!
Max loves to greet his foster with a happy tap dance and big smiles upon her return home. He is a sweet boy who loves all the humans he meets. He is currently living with dogs and cats, and likes to consider him the referee of the household, interrupting anything that he considers to be shenigans. Max’s other hobbies include serious sous chef and proud toy collector.
Max has a very serious opinion about squirrels and while he typically walks well on leash, he will pull when he sees one.
Max would do best with a family who is home more often than not. He loves being around his people and believes personal space is just a suggestion. He will gently boop with his nose when he would like attention, which is often.
