Max was found as a stray in 2015, he was at the time estimated to be around 4years old.
He went unclaimed so the family that had found him applied to be his legal owner. Max spent 2 happy years with the family but unfortunately in 2017 their circumstances changed so Max was relinquished to us, at the sanctuary. This, sadly is where he has remained right up to the present day.
Max is now approximately 12 years old and we are ideally looking for an adult only owner to give him a home for him to live out his remaining senior years. He is very much an independent, sometimes stubborn dog who does not necessarily thrive on alot of fuss. He is a friendly dog but needs to get to know you before he can truly be himself.
Max requires a quiet life, no real contact with children or other animals. Being a sight hound, Max does have a natural prey drive and would jump at the chance to chase off after a rabbit or squirrel.
For this reason we would always advise Max is exercised wearing a muzzle. He walks beautifully on a lead and will enjoy a daily low paced plod and sniff before returning back to the comfort of a warm, secure home where he will happily lounge the day away! Given the opportunity to visit a secure, enclosed dog paddock, Max will surprise you with some typical hound zoomies at racing speed!
Max is clean in his kennel and we would expect that once he is settled, this will remain the case in his new home. Max does suffer from a little age related arthritis especially around his back end. PACT will continue to see Max for this condition and cover his medication. The same applies for a low grade heart murmur that Max has, his medication for this will also be covered by PACT.
