Maxy is an affectionate and smoochy dog who loves to be around his people whenever he gets the chance. Maxy has sight and hearing issues so relies on smell and touch. Maxy loves to cuddle, having his head rubbed and giving big kisses. Although he loves attention and cuddles he can also be quite the independent boy. Maxy can be a big ball of energy and would run for miles if he could, but then is also happy to be napping. He is a beautifully balanced boy.

Maxy’s initial anxiety has settled down a lot, he no longer paces around. Maxy craves affection. It’s clear he’s been on the streets as he’d happily wander and sniff around and go his own way. His carers have to be very careful not to leave the door/gate open. In the evenings he usually wants cuddles and pats most of the night until he settles to sleep.

Maxy is good on lead, he delights in his walks where he trots along happily, stopping to sniff a little but then moves on. When he meets other dogs out and about he has a polite sniff and continues on his way. We are working with Maxy on his basic commands and house training.

Maxy is looking for a home where he can have cuddles, kisses and a family who adores small dogs and have the patience to let him settle in. He’d love a good sized yard where he can wander around and explore. If you’re looking to make Maxy a part of your loving family, fill out the application today. Maxy can’t wait to finally come home!

Maxy is untested with cats.

All our dogs are desexed, C5 vaccinated with intranasal, microchipped, wormed and flea treated. All necessary vet work such as dentals, surgery, eye treatment is also carried out. We are no longer heartworm testing as we have not had one positive test since we began in 2006. If a dog comes to us on heartworm treatment this is continued.
