Story
If you're searching for a devoted and loving best friend, Max is the guy you want to have around! Max, at just about 7 - 8 years old and 30 lbs is just naturally a lover. When he looks at you with those dark expressive eyes and sweet smile, your heart just can't help but melt.
Max is a beautiful 7 - 8 year old, 30 lb purebred Boston Terrier. We believe that sweet Max had poor nutrition in his life and too much of it. It's important that this guy be put on a limited diet with green beans. This food protocol will result in weight loss and a svelte and happy Max.
Max's breed identification was made by Texas vets. The only thing we're certain of is that this engaging guy is irresistible! He has all the endearing Boston Terrier traits that make these super- smart and personality-plus dogs very popular breed mixes for families and individuals searching for loving and loyal best friends.
Max has all the potential in the world for a stunning coat that speaks of his breed. Unfortunately, it has been compromised by the harsh conditions of the shelter. It's with excellent nutrition, sudsy baths / brushing and pure love that Max's coat will return to the stunning coat that's consistent with his breed.
Max may be initially shy or frightened when he arrives on transport in Colorado. With time, kindness and yummy treats, this sweetheart will come out of his shell. We know that this sweetie-pie enjoys his time with his foster family tremendously. His favorite times of day are the times spent together. With a bit of time, attention and nurturing, Max became a snuggler, and ultimately a best friend. His foster is very clear that this gorgeous guy is over the top sweet, perhaps a bit shy initially and once comfortable, loves his family with every bit of his huge heart!
Texas rescuers had the following to brag about sweet Max:
Meet the irresistible Max. He's a gorgeous, very affectionate, and engaging dog who is searching for his forever home. He's a sweet and very smart pup who knows basic obedience and is a very friendly snuggler with all people (and dogs & cats) who are kind to him. This sweet Boston is so gentle and also funny, silly and playful. He's great with other dogs and cats and loves making new four-legged as well as two-legged friends.
Max will be absolutely stunning when he gets a sudsy bath and brushing. He's between 7 and 8 years old and as loving as can be. He really stands out due to not only his beauty but his sweetness and excellent behavior. He is a super-smart and well-behaved dog who would be perfect for an individual or family searching for an irresistible family member. Max is sweet as can be, is loyal, loving, and wonderful. I can picture him hiking the trails of Colorado and then at end of day falling asleep on the couch surrounded by his family.
Our sweet Max is a very kind and gentle dog who has never had a loving and responsible home to call his own. A dog-crazy family (another gentle dog to hang out with would be a plus) would be great fun for the social Max. He will have so much fun exploring and taking long walks beside his people. He's always open to new and fun activities with a never-ending positive attitude. Just say the word and up Max will jump for a car ride, a fun hike or just a sociable walk around the neighborhood.
Max (once comfortable in his new environment) is a loving, silly and fun pup! We would love to see him in a home with a family (older kids preferred so there's no tail-pulling or awkward handling) or active retirees who have the time and love for a very loyal and loving dog. We'd hate to see Max left alone all day while his family works full-time outside of the home. We think he's too sensitive for that. A family that works from a home-based office is a great choice for our sweet Max.
