Max - Belgian Shepherd Malinois Dog for Adoption in Pleasant Hill, California

Meet Max!

Max is a smart, playful Belgian Malinois puppy who already has one of his favorite things figured out: having a job to do!

This clever boy loves obedience training and is eager to learn, especially when treats and cuddles are part of the deal. He's already learning to sit patiently at mealtime and loves working for his food with interactive puzzle feeders. Tug toys and his beloved duck plushie are also high on his list of priorities.

Max can be a little reserved when meeting new people, but once he feels comfortable, his sweet and affectionate personality comes shining through. He's curious, spirited, playful, and happiest when his brain and body are both kept busy.

Max is looking for a family excited about continuing his training and giving this bright, engaging pup plenty of opportunities to learn, play, and thrive. With his intelligence and willingness to work with his people, Max has all the makings of an incredible companion.
