Max - Poodle Dog for Adoption in Fall River, Massachusetts

Meet Max!

Max is everything poodle. He's smart. He's high energy. He's a social butterfly. When you think of a poodle, Max is the poster child.

Max is about ten months old so, not only does he have the high energy of a poodle, but he has the high energy of a puppy as well. He's about 65lbs right now and shouldn't be getting much bigger - maybe another five to ten pounds.

One thing about Max? He LOVES other dogs. He loves other dogs more than life itself. He loves other dogs so much that he just doesn't know how to handle it and his enthusiasm turns him into a tornado. He can be overbearing - he wants to jump on other dogs, wants to throw his weight around and play slap them, and wants to be an overall menace. He would not pair well with an older dog, a smaller dog, or a dog that is easily spooked/protective of their boundaries. He is probably too much for most cats as well. Kids 12+ though exceptions may be made for the right family with experience.

Max also has a bit of separation anxiety. He gets very whiny and uncertain when left alone - this may dissipate as he settles in, or with crate training, but he may do best with a family that works from home or a couple who works opposite schedules. He LIVES to be with people - he thrives on attention and affection. He's VERY playful and will bring his toys to you to let you know he wants to play...which is almost always.

We, obviously, cannot guarantee that he is purebred or that he is hypoallergenic. He WILL require regular coat maintenance/grooming as well as consistent exercise and mental stimulation.
