Max - Retriever Dog for Adoption in Chicago, Illinois

Max

40lbs
1 yo
Dogs. Cats.


Max looks like someone took a red retriever, added a dash of pointer, shrunk the whole thing down into the most delicious petite package, and then forgot to adjust the personality accordingly.

Little dude.

BIG presence.

Max is an absolute gem of a dog. He's happiest as part of a pack and genuinely loves the company of other animals. He's phenomenal with dogs, phenomenal with cats, and has that wonderful ability to slide into the rhythm of a home and become part of the crew.

He's looking for an active family who wants their dog involved in life. Walks, adventures, backyard hangs, weekends out and about. Max is in.

But more than anything, he wants to be wherever his people are.

He's a sidekick. A pack member. A little red shadow with a huge heart who believes the best place in the world is wherever everyone else happens to be.

Petite body. Big personality. Beautiful soul.

Max isn't looking to live alongside his family.

He wants to live life with them.
