About Max (Hound) in Mechanicsburg

Max is waiting for you at Molly's Place Rescue in United States. My story starts sadly with unfortunate situations. Hopefully you can help write a happy ending. Given the name “Max”, short for Maximus (meaning “The Greatest” in Latin), my life was a struggle from day one. My mom had been chained outside in freezing weather and gave birth to myself and 6 other pups on the harsh, unforgiving dirt covered ground she called home. Luckily, Molly’s Place found out about us and came to take us to live with them. Adopted as a puppy, I had hope for a wonderful future. But people are not always kind. My adopter’s decided they no longer wanted me and I was given away on Craig’s list, not once, not twice, but THREE times. After the Third time, I found myself in an over populated shelter. Fortunately, Molly’s Place had microchipped me as a pup. Mollys got the call and didn’t hesitate to make the 4 hour round trip drive to bring me back to safety. Now 5 years old, Hound/Great Pyrenees mix, I have grown into a beautiful boy, approx. 80#, with black markings that accentuate my expressive eyes, droopy black ears and white body. My energy level is moderate as I continue to mature with a zest for life as a shining example of resilience of animals and the impact of kindness shown by Molly’s Place Rescue to continue on with their commitment to me. Already house and crate trained, I come when called and walk well on leash. Due to my past experiences still haunting me, I can be unpredictable with children and other dogs. I will need to be an only dog with a fenced in yard to ensure my safety. In a home, my personality will light up the room. Described as Goofy, I am great at playing fetch, love to give and receive affectionate and really try hard to please my humans. I also will flip over going belly up to play “Wiggle Worm” as I kick my legs up in the joy of giving myself a back rub on carpet. My dream is to find my permanent loving family that will offer me the attention and
