Max

My story

Max is a 2 year Bernadoodle. From a puppy Max has been anxious of new people and environments. Once he is comfortable he forms strong bonds with adults and older teens who respect his space. Max is sensitive to unfamiliar people but once comfortable he is loving and affectionate. Max needs slow, gentle introductions to new people and prefers routine and predictable structure. He responds well to positive reinforcement. Max is especially nervous around young children due to their energy and unpredictability. He requires distance and supervision when young children are present and is best suited for an adults only home. Max ideal home would be adults only or older teens, someone who is experienced with dogs and understands anxiety. Despite his worries, Max has a huge heart. Once he trusts you, he becomes deeply loyal, gentle, and eager to please. His progress may be gradual, but he’s the kind of companion who blossoms beautifully in the right environment
