About Max
Max is a happy go lucky young Jack Russel Terrier Mix.
He loves to run and play, Due to his adventurous spirit he will require high and secure fences.
Max is affectionate and people focused once he comfortable but at first his super nervous and timid around strangers.
Max would love a home where he would spend minimal time left alone.
Max will require some ongoing training to help him flourish into the perfect k9 companion.
He is very reactive around other dogs, seeing them as a threat rather than a friend. As such Max is strictly a single dog home with the expectation that he will not partake in any activities with other dogs on or off lead.
With time and at a safe distance max will eventually calm down in the presence of other dogs as long as they do not come near him.
Max would be best suited to a home without cats, dogs or young children as his behaviour can be unpredictable at this stage.
