Max is a 3-year-old border collie mix weighing in at a perfect medium size of 38 pounds. He has a soft heart and gentle spirit so he can be a little shy when meeting new people. But with a kind and caring approach, Max will warm up quickly. Max arrived in rescue after being surrendered when his owner passed away. Before coming to the rescue, he was living mostly outdoors in a small kennel. A lot of tender loving care has done wonders for Max, and he has shown remarkable progress.Once he feels comfortable Max will truly shine and is happy to show off his talents. His favorite hobbies are running around the play yard and chasing his favorite ball to burn off that border collie energy. As he is still building confidence, Max will benefit from continued socialization, but he is becoming more trusting and playful every day. He would do best in a calm, patient, and loving home so he can continue to make progress.Max does with dogs and children. He has not yet been introduced to cats so his relationship with them is unknown at this time. With a lot to learn and a new environment to get used to, all house, crate, and leash training is in progress for Max, but he is eager to please and with a little structure and consistency, he will thrive in a loving home. Now that he knows he is safe and cared for, Max is sure to blossom into a loyal and loving companion. If you are looking for a sweet and playful dog who just needs to know what unconditional love looks like, then Max may be the dog for you.* When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine.
