Adopt Maxim

Raça mista · Macho · Jovem · 3 anos

Maxim & Lolita were brought to us by Sanidad with microchips, they were given away by their "human", they did not want their dogs anymore. First when they arrived, they were so sad and crying. Slowly they started to get used to the shelter life, and at least they started enjoying their time in the dog parks. Lolita has been adopted in the meantime, but Maxim is still waiting in the shelter. After a year, the stress of the daily shelter life has reached him - lack of movement, lack of sleep, small spaces and nothing to do, for these active, smart dogs who are ideal for accompanying a human. Maxim & Lolita are supposed to be siblings and they are very good together, so they would be happy to be adopted together, but at the same time, they will also have happy lives when adopted separately into good families. We believe that both are able to be single dogs of the family, especially when living in a home where they can spend a lot of time together with their human. Maxim has also met other female dogs, and he could possibly live together with another social female. We have not yet tested him with other males. Maxim has a bit shorter tail than normal, we're not completely sure whether he was born with a shorter tail, or whether he had an accident in his life, however the tail does not bother him at all. Maxim & Lolita are both are such loving and friendly dogs, but stressed in the shelter environment, which is very typical for a shepherd. They just want to be outside, running in the park and guarding the perimeters. ⁠They’re both strong dogs and pull on the leash when first going out of the shelter when stressed, but once calmly in the dog parks and they’ve burnt off some energy, they’re good on the lead. ⁠Maxim is more cuddly and he always walks through your legs. He loves to be stroked and close next to you. While Lolita is more independant and wonders around also by herself, then Maxim is always looking back to check that you are also still there. Maxim has the typical problems of a German Shephard with low back and hips - hip dysplasia and spondylosis, which all together seems to be creating an incontinence issue for Maxim. He is receiving medication for muscle release, pain management and physiotherapy, which is really helping his mobility, but also the physiotherapist and veterinary say - he needs a home to improve. He has to gain muscles on his back legs, to improve his health. More we cannot do in the shelter environment sadly....
