Meet Max
For nearly 12 years, Max knew nothing but love. He was one of six little dogs who were pampered, cuddled, groomed, taken to the vet, and treated like family by their elderly Mom and Dad. But Max was Mom’s special boy. At only 5 pounds, he was the perfect size to carry everywhere—and that’s exactly what she did. Sometimes she would even tuck him right inside her shirt so he could stay close to her. Sadly his mother passed away. Dad loved him dearly but was struggling with serious health problems and could not care for him or the others properly. After he was given up to rescue, Max’s coat had to be shaved and he lost all but one of his teeth. Don’t worry, though—Max isn’t letting that slow him down. Max is pure-bred but has a merle coat which is a non-standard color and one of the rare colorings for a yorky. Max is a happy, sweet, loving, playful boy. He does fine with other dogs so long as they know he gets sit next to his human. We would love nothing more than to see Max spend the rest of his life in someone’s arms, knowing he is someone’s favorite once again.
