About Max
Handsome Max has come into rescue as a failed working sheepdog on a farm, with younger and more dedicated dogs now taking over the shepherding role! Max is now completely ready to change his career path and specialise in being a devoted companion! He loves people and loves to interact with everyone he meets, a really happy, pleasant dog.
Max has not lived with very young children, although he has been around older children. He has not lived with cats or small pets. He has lived with other dogs but is not comfortable with assertive male dogs. He is also not used to living in a house, because as a orking farm dog, he has typically either been out and about on the farm or primarily living in an outbuilding, so he will be a bit confused by a not=rmal domestic setting at first but is a very bright dog who soon learns new things. He walks nicely on the lead and is easy to handle, just a thoroughly nice dog.
As with most collie types, Max is a very active and intelligent dog, not suited tto a couch potato lifestyle! He will need an active and interesting lifestyle, and company most of the time.
