Maxwell

I'm trying a new home to see if i like it. Maxwell arrived from the pound in a pretty bad state as he was severely matted with hair all over his face. We think that it is quite probable that maxwell hadn't seen very much out of his eyes for a while due to the hair covering his entire face (see photo below). Maxwell was taken to the vet for his surgery and, while under anaesthetic, he was given a very short hair cut. It must have been quite a shock for him when he woke from the surgery to be able to see again! maxwell really had no idea about humans or other dogs when he first arrived at his rescuer's house and just sat in his basket with his new found teddy bear friend watching her dogs. Maxwell appeared bewildered by their presence and just watched, but he did quickly enjoy having the teddy in his basket and soon cuddled up to it feeling very warm and clean, something he had not experienced for a very long time. Maxwell then went into foster care with a young couple who have no children. He was very quiet and very wary when he first arrived in care but, day by day, he is coming out of his shell and the true maxwell is being revealed. Maxwell was probably purchased as a pretty puppy (designer dog) and, when his coat began to grow and he became matted, we suspect that he was "thrown out into the back yard" and ignored. The best home for maxwell will be with a family who don't have small children as he has been through quite a bit in his short life and we feel that a quieter home will be best for him. Maxwell will gain confidence as time passes and he feels more secure but he will require walks and socialisation with other dogs. A small dog in his new home will also be very good for him. Maxwell is slowly putting on weight as he was severely underweight when he came from the pound. He is house trained and is a house dog who loves his toys and sleeps all night long in his basket next to his foster carers' bed. Maxwell has a high maintenance coat that will require lots of brushing and regular trips to the groomer for a clip to keep him looking lovely. Maxwell comes desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, wormed, on heartworm prevention and with nsw local council lifetime registration for $350. He has also had a recent dental (teeth cleaned under anaesthetic).
