Are you a Labrador lover? Meet Max, he's got all the best traits of a lab - he loves to play ball, he's full of goofy (dare we say derpy?!) and fun energy and he's just generally happy to be with you!

Max is an XL dog with an XL zest for life! At just around 2-3 years old Max is the perfect age to learn some new tricks and settle in nicely to a new home! We're think that Max could be paired with other medium to large dogs with a similar play style, and he could easily meld into a home with older kids who love slobbery dog kisses! We don't think that Max is a match with cats, we would also love to see him in a home with a secure yard that he could probably spend hours with you playing fetch every day! 

Max has been diagnosed with laryngeal paralysis and his case review by a specialist; surgery is not recommended at this time however it may be required at some point in his future. Max is a happy and healthy dog but should not be allowed to overexert himself and will need to be walked with a harness or gentle leader, a fenced in yard will be his best option at having some freedom to enjoy the outdoors!

Max's adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, microchip, current vaccines and preventatives plus a current Heartworm test.  Also included in Max's adoption is a free training course at Cedar Run Company #2 in Hiawatha! Max is seeking an indoor home only, if you would like to meet him please submit an adoption application on our website, Adopthope.org.  Our adoption process includes a background check and a vet history check, we look for adopters to have a history of having kept any other animals altered, current on annual visits & vaccines and kept as indoor pets only.

Applications can be found on our website at www.adopthope.org. Please allow 24-72 hours for a response to inquiries. We are an all volunteer organization. We will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you!
