Big Max

This is Max, a beautiful shepherd cross with a heart as big as his paws. He found himself back at Assisi through no fault of his own. Loved by staff both old and new, this gentle giant has charmed everyone who takes the time to earn his trust. While Max is quick to warm up to familiar faces, he can be wary of strangers – particularly men- but with patience and positive interactions he comes around. Once you’re in his circle, you’ll be greeted with bonding enthusiasm, a wagging tail, and a tongue-out grim as he races through the field like a pup, ball in mouth. On walks, Max is strong on the lead but loves a good sniff around. In his younger years, he was more reactive to dogs and strangers when out on walks, now he can cope with both at a distance and is able to glance and return to his favourite hobby – sniffing. Due to his size, strength and history, Max would need an adult-only home as well as being the only pet. He’s ready to find a home that will give him the love, stability and time he deserves.
