Max 1

Who agrees that Max is one of the most beautiful dogs we have in the BDRUK pack?  He’s a rare  black German Shepherd, 34kg, born c. 2013 (which means he should still have a few good years ahead of him given the longevity of his breed); in good health, active, fully sighted, and a lovely, friendly well-behaved boy.    

We would dearly love to find Max a retirement home so his faith in humanity has a happy outcome.  

Max’s life in Serbia has been pretty sad.  He was owned by someone but kept in disgusting conditions.  His owner then gave up on him completely.  Max was out on the street.  Next he was  roughly seized by the dog catchers.  Thankfully he was rescued and now lives in a private shelter in Serbia.    

But he deserves so much better.   

Why? Because despite years of squalor, hardship and neglect, Max hasn’t given up on people.  He  loves them.  He’s a friendly, affectionate boy.  He’s still holding out for a person, a couple or a  family of his own.   And Max really isn’t asking for much.  He likes attention, love, and he likes walks, and he likes a rest.  It’s not complicated.   

And although he’s a larger breed, Max is not a difficult dog to manage.  He's not boisterous and  playful.  He knows how to walk on a lead and walks well.  He is fully housetrained and has always  maintained his nice clean manners in the shelter.    

Max is good with other dogs, but not unduly bothered by them. He tends to approach other dogs,  sniff and move on.  He’s more of a human-centric kind of dog.   We don’t know how Max is with cats.  (He doesn’t much like travelling in the car, as he can get a bit sick).   

Finally, we know it’s not all about looks, but… those ears, that shiny nose, that noble wolfy gait,  lovely mane, and that tongue!  And the attentive, desperate-to-please way he sits and looks… how  is everyone not in love with him?!  Max asks for little and will give much.  He will make someone very proud.
