Black Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Max (Maxie)! 🐾

Max is a 8-9 month old Lab mix who was found abandoned and has been thriving in foster care ever since. He’s a sweet, playful, and very loyal boy who loves being close to his people — a true Velcro dog!

Max is smart and eager to learn. He sleeps through the night indoors without accidents, is doing great with crate training, and is quickly picking up basic commands and leash skills.

🐾 Max at a glance:
• 7–8 months old
• Lab mix
• Affectionate and people-oriented
• Playful and energetic
• Crate training going well
• Learning commands and leash manners
• Good with older kids
• Good with foster’s small dog

Max would do best in an active home that can give him exercise, structure, and lots of love. He enjoys the outdoors, toys, water, and especially cuddling with his humans. He just needs a family willing to give him the second chance he deserves. 🩵
