Max was taken from his home because of Breed Specific Legislation, Please take a moment to read the owners words below...
Max is a wonderful, loving, affectionate dog. He deserves a good home. Please, please, I pray that
who ever adopts him will love him and take care of him
"Max's profile
He does not like vacuum cleaners
He does not like cats, agressive dogs, possum, and squirrels
He has only been fed dog food, purina kibbles and chunks
You can keep food in his bowl, he will eat in moderation
give heartworm (1) a month
Key words he understands:
Bad-when he is doing something you don't want him to do
Hurry up-when he goes outside to do his business No, lay down, go to your pillow, stay, heel, stop, sit
Hax has never been kept outside. He has never had an accidnet in our home (the longest he had to hold it was 15 hours-we had an emergency and was unable to get to him)
Take him out in the morning if you work and maybe once or twice after that (when you get home). He loves childeren buy you will have to watch him because he can knock down small kids. We never was able to break him from jumping up when he greets someone. He is not a barker, only at other animals.
Max is located at the Siouxland Humane Society in Sioux City, IA.
Max is a 4 year old, neutered pit bull. He was surrendered to the Humane Society because of city ordinances.This dog is such a sweetheart!!!! Max is housebroken and has always been an inside dog. He is leash trained and knows approximately 10 commands...very smart. He is very loving and affectionate. His previous owners were heartbroken to give him up.
He has been at the shelter since Dec.4th and is beginning to go downhill. He does not get up to greet the staff anymore...he is VERY depressed. The H.S. staff says wonderful things about this dog's personality. I believe this is the only reason he has not been euthanized...yet. However, with his emotional decline, euthanasia is imminent.
We need to find a rescue situation or home for this wonderful dog IMMEDIATELY!!! Please contact me for any additional information you may need!
