Max

Max came into our care from a home. He has previously lived with young children but he found it quite uncomfortable with them in his space and so we are seeking a home for Max with no children.

Max is a very typical French Bulldog, with all the good points and bad so he will need an experienced home. He does have quite sensitive skin, particularly around his head and ears and he does not always appreciate being touched in these areas and he has nipped to show that he’s not comfortable with it, sometimes without warning. Since being in our care his ears are now much better so anyone interested in Max will need to be mindful of the fact that his sensitive skin will need to be kept on top of to keep him happy.

Max has been out and about walking with other dogs and has been very well behaved. He can get over stimulated and excited quite quickly around other dogs during play and so ideally Max would be best suited as the only dog in the home.

When in our orchard area, Max loves to run and play and he’s very friendly with everyone he meets. He loves the paddling pool during the summer months and he will happily stand in there and play with his toys.

Max does have a very high prey drive and he will chase cats and other animals and so for this reason, when in a public area, Max cannot be off lead.

Because Max originally came from a home where he didn’t feel comfortable, going back into a home environment does make him feel a little anxious and he does tend to guard, so Max will need someone who can give him the time and patience that he needs so he can settle down and understand that this home is different and that the things that worried him previously no longer apply. Once he begins to settle and understand this, his confidence will grow.
