Max is a big, shy sweetie pie. He was born in the shelter, one of eight puppies, and was adopted. Many months later, he escaped his owner's home and was picked up by Animal Services. His owner no longer wanted him, so he was returned to the Humane Society. He was the shyest pup in the litter, and remains so to this day. But don't let his shyness fool you; he is no scary-cat, in fact he loves other dogs and cats. He is shy with strangers, fearful, and is in need of a tender-hearted, gentle and loving human who can gain his trust. Once he warms up to you, he is a big teddy lover bear! He wants a forever home with someone who is as cool and calm as he is. The shelter life doesn’t agree with Max and depression settles into close to him so come in to adopt Max. You will definitely find your forever best friend in him!

King lives up to his name with his majestic beauty and stance of power as an absolute ruler. Like a Clydesdale he prances when he walks with his head held high and in perfect harmony with the universe. He is a super dog searching for that one perfect loving forever home with a person who understands the proudest of Labradors and the handling of them. He is extremely smart and well mannered, but yet independent and needs a leader in his life that isn’t afraid to work with him and be his master. He loves to do tricks for treats which clearly suggestions his willingness to learn with the proper training. He will also play all day long if given the chance. He is always attentive and alarming of strangers that make him a great dog that looks out for family and home! Please come and visit King to see if he is the guy for you.
