Max

Max is a remarkable senior gentleman who will melt your heart with his fluffy wagging tail. He is a loyal, affectionate, gentle soul who loves snuggling up with his humans. His three favourite things in life are his cosy bed, food, and going for a walk with you.

When he's happy, Max has an adorable way of trotting up on his toes that will surely bring a smile to your face. He loves to greet his favourite people with a little lick on the leg, and if he's feeling cheeky, you might even get a kiss on the cheek when you cuddle him!

Although Max is in the later stages of life, he still enjoys each day to its fullest. He is excited to see you in the morning and will gladly give his best cuddles. Max looks forward to his breakfast, followed by napping inside in his cosy bed or outside in a shady spot. He often takes a stroll around the garden sniffing this and that. He is still active enough to enjoy going out for gentle daily walks or pottering in and out of the shallow water at the beach.

Max grew up with his mum and dad by his side. He has been missing them since they both passed away last year. In his new home, Max really does need another small, calm, older dog to give him the canine company he has always been used to.

Like most dogs who are lucky enough to reach his grand old age, Max has a few health concerns. This little darling has good eyesight but is mostly deaf. He has a heart murmur and likely has a degree of cognitive decline. He also likely has the beginnings of spinal arthritis and renal disease. A doggy door leading out into the garden would be ideal for Max as he needs to go out to the toilet quite often, including through the night. Max has also never been one for using stairs, which means he will be best suited to a single-level home. The good thing is that Max is blissfully unaware of all of this, and he goes happily about his day with his heart full of love.

Max is a truly lovely and special boy; therefore, he deserves a truly lovely and special home. Ideally, he would be adopted by someone with experience caring for a senior dog. His new family would need to be home more often than not and understand that Max's care needs will potentially increase as he ages further. If you can give Max a wonderful home for his twilight days, he will undoubtedly repay you kindness and love tenfold.
