Hound and Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Grand Junction, Colorado

Max is active, affectionate, and eager to learn. He is still young and requires exercise every day - either walks or playing in your yard would be so much fun! He loves to play fetch!!

He does pull on leash, but does better with a harness. He is treat-motivated and ready to learn further skills. He knows sit and high-five. He has worked some with Brandon the trainer at Wag who notes he is very smart and a fun dog. He is still learning his name and as this is practiced, he will do better on focusing to learn new tricks. He would love an adopter who is ready to give him as much love as he wants to give away!!
