Mr. Max is a 9yr old black lab mix. Max is very vocal and can sound mean but I can assure you he is not. His needs will be very minimal, out in the morning to do his business (approx 10-15min) and again in the evening. His food bowl gets filled in the morning and he grazes throughout the day. He is leash trained and wears an e-collar for added protection as he can get distracted with small furry animals. Max prefers a female but given a bit of time, he will be okay with a male. Overall, Max is a big ole couch potato.
