Max is a three-year-old old blonde terrier mix with a great personality.
I met Max a few weeks ago at Midland’s Animal Control and immediately fell in love with him but was told that he was scheduled to be put down that afternoon. I knew that he was the perfect dog for our young family. Max is a calm dog–past the hyper (and chewy) puppy stage. He is gentle, wonderful with our children, and has excellent manners.
Upon adopting Max, we took him to the vet where he checked out perfectly healthy. We bought a supply of Heartguard, Frontline Plus, and scheduled his neuter appointment before heading home to cuddle with our newest family member.
Max joins our basset hound, Jezebelle, as a much-loved furry family member. Max and Jezebelle are now inseparable friends.
If you are considering adopting a pet, please check out the SPCA and animal control–there are some amazing pets available for adoption. Over 10 million pets are euthanized every year in animal shelters nationwide. Many of those pets are young kittens, puppies, or purebred dogs.

Max is absolutely gorgeous, and the fact that you rescued him from a shelter makes him all the more special. I adopted my Great Pyrenees Houdini from our local shelter and he has turned out to be an amazing pet. Highly recomend adoption over purchasing retail. Your photographs are simply outstanding Sarah.
I am so glad that you are advocating adopting from the shelter! I used to volunteer in Lubbock at one and that’s how I ended up with my precious kitty cat Oscar. There are so many animals that just want to be loved - thank you for sharing that on your blog!
Oh goodness, that makes my heart so happy to see! What an adorable guy he is.
