Katrina Survivor.

Max was boarding (with a female rottie) at a boarding facility during outside of New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina hit. They had puppies while they boarded. The owners picked up the puppies and the mom and left Max.  After nine months, the guy running the boarding kennel was going to shoot Max in the field behind the kennel if the shelter did not take him. That's where we got involved. His heartworms were horrible -- the treatment taking more than two months. Max has also had two surgeries to correct entropion.

Max is a gorgeous 4 yr old rottie boy. He is very friendly, very social and loves everyone. Max's foster family reports that he has absolutely PERFECT house manners, loves his crate, and plays very well with the other rottie boy who lives there. Max is strong on lead, but knows basic commands and rides well in the car.

Max is excitable around small animals, so cats and small dogs are not likely. He is appropriate around all people. Max is neutered, heartworm negative and currently vaccinated. He has come a long way, baby! Max joined us in New Hampshire one year after the hurricane -- and he still doesn't know how to swim!

Max would love to be home by Christmas. Help him get the family he so deserves!
