Labrador Retriever
Fawn
Each organization sets the adoption fee for their animals. Adoption fees help cover the cost of this animal’s care as well as allowing the organization to help more animals.
A lifetime of love and commitment
Max has already experienced what it's like to lose a home. Now he's simply hoping his next family will be his forever family.
Training, Adjustment & What to Expect
Although Max has lived with a family before, every rescue dog needs time to adjust to a new environment. New routines, new people, and unfamiliar surroundings can take a little time to understand.
Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule:
3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe
3 Weeks to learn your household routine
3 Months to fully settle into family life
Max's friendly and easygoing nature will help him adapt, especially with patience, consistency, and encouragement.
His new family should continue providing:
Positive reinforcement training
Daily walks and exercise
Mental enrichment through toys and games
Continued socialization
A predictable routine
Plenty of love, patience, and reassurance
With a little time to settle in, Max is sure to become a loyal and devoted member of the family.
Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care
Adopting Max is a lifelong commitment that includes providing proper veterinary care, exercise, training, and companionship.
As part of responsible pet ownership, Max will need:
Annual veterinary wellness examinations
Routine vaccinations as recommended by your veterinarian
Monthly flea, tick, and heartworm prevention
A balanced diet to maintain a healthy weight
Daily physical exercise and mental stimulation
Continued positive reinforcement training
A safe, loving indoor home where he is treated as a valued member of the family
We recommend scheduling a wellness examination with your veterinarian shortly after adoption to establish care and help ensure Max continues to thrive.
