Sadie

Update: Sadie is in foster :)


Sweetie.





Got ball?  ....or anything I can fetch for that matter?  My name is Sadie and my favorite activity is fetching!  At 41-lbs and 9-years young, I'm an active, playful Australian Shepherd who cannot wait to meet my Forever Family!

I was brought into MaxFund with my canine buddy (Sydney) when our previous guardian could no longer care for us.  Unfortunately, I have spent most of my life as an outside dog so I have yet to experience all that family life has to offer.  But, despite my surroundings, I'm a gentle, friendly gal who is great with all people, dogs and cats (did you hear that?!?  I'm good with cats!!)  I've ever met.  As I've spent my life outdoors, I haven't learned what is expected of an indoor dog...with that said, I'm a *very* smart girl who should quickly pick up on any new training, commands or whatever else you expect of me!  And, even though I am rather active, I know when it's time to stop, drop and relax (unlike those silly puppies!)  


While I'm quite easy on the eyes, I must mention my most unique feature.  I'm missing the tip of my left ear!  This occurred several years ago during a particularly rough-and-tumble play session with my canine buddies.  Don't worry - it's completely healed and I don't even remember it's missing until I cross paths with a mirror (hee! hee!) 

Are you that special someone looking to welcome a GREAT GAL into your home?  Well...what are you waiting for?  Your newest addition is just waiting at MaxFund for YOU...just remember to ask for Sadie!

Rascal

12/20/11: Rascal was adopted!


Big, sweet guy






"You little Rascal?!?"  Howdy!  I'm Rascal - a fantastic 95-lb yellow lab who hasn't heard those words for a while since I'm such a great guy!  I was relinquished to MaxFund as my former guardian became ill and could no longer care for me.  While I'm a little confused with all the life changes, I've seen several of my canine neighbors trot out of here with their new Forever Families and I'm dreaming of the day when that happy Family includes me!

Not too much is known about my former life but I can say that I get along great with all other dogs and cats I've ever encountered.  I've never lived with small children but a great guy such as myself would probably do just fine with them - with that said, be sure to inquire with the MaxFund staff if little tykes are part of your family.  I'm a champion cuddler & live for time spent with my family (4-legged and 2-legged alike!)  I enjoy playing fetch, as well as leash walks around town.

I'll make a great family member to most any family.  Won't you please hurry in to MaxFund soon and let me be one of the next dogs to trot off into the sunset!?!  Remember to ask for Rascal!

Zimora

12/20/11: Zimora was adopted!


Little, sweet husky






Hello Hello!  Thanks for stopping my by very own autobiography site!  I'm Zimora - a 2 year-young petite husky weighing in a 42-lbs.  I'm not sure how such a SMART and FUN girl as myself ended up as a stray...but it happened.  Luckily, I was brought to MaxFund by a good samaritan (thank you!) where the staff is letting me fully participate in finding myself my very own Forever Family!

While I stayed with the aforementioned (now that's a big word for a canine, eh?!?) good samaritan, I lived with children aged 2 to 14 years and we all got along swell.  I also shared space with another dog and even a CAT - and we all enjoyed each other's company.  As an active gal, I'll need an active family who has time for frequent walks or other forms of exercise (dog parks or doggie daycare would probably be fun!)  I'll also need someone who is dedicated to teaching me the canine ropes (that's a fancy way of saying I need some basic obedience training).  Don't let that stop you, though, as I'm so smart (did you catch my extensive vocabulary?!?) that I'll make YOU look like a great dog trainer!!

Like all adolescent gals (and true to my husky breed), I can be a bit of a chatter-box.  But I'm just trying to communicate all these brilliant thoughts that are passing through my head.  If you get a chance to come on in to MaxFund (today, please), I promise you won't regret it - I'll spend my entire life impressing you with my good looks, brilliance and goofy antics! When you arrive at MaxFund remember to ask for Zimora!!

Lacy

11/29/11: Lacy was adopted!


Sweetie :)






Hello there.  I hope you're having a wonderful day!  I'm Lacy - the prim-and-proper lady.  I'm a 4 year-young, 55-lb black labrador/shepherd mix who was found wandering the streets of Denver.  While I was out and about, I may have witnessed some things that weren't meant for a lady's eyes so I can be a bit nervous when you first meet me.  Keep in mind that all ladies may play a little hard-to-get at first (wink! wink!)  However, with a little loving, I warm right on up to everyone I've met!  And once I realize you're respectful of a lady such as myself, I'm full-steam-ahead with my cuddling and loving!

My MaxFund human-friends describe me as an all-around GREAT GIRL!  I thoroughly enjoy the company of other well-behaved dogs as well as all people I've met around MaxFund.  I've not spent much time around cats or small kids but please inquire with the MaxFund folks if these creatures are part of your family.  Car rides are swell and I'd love to accompany my future guardian around town (who wouldn't want such a pretty lady as their co-pilot!?!)

Might a sweet, attractive lady be a good addition to your family?  If so, then please hurry on down to MaxFund and ask for Lacy the Lady!

Sydney

Update: Sydney was adopted!!


This gal has spent her whole life outdoors.  Here's to finding a family who will show her how great a *home* can be!






I hear you're looking for a Best Friend?  Well...here I am!  My name is Sydney and I'm the definition of (wo)man's best friend!  I'm an 8 year-old, 96-lb yellow lab and I'm what everyone is looking for when they think of (wo)man's best friend!  

Unfortunately, I have spent most of my life as an outside dog so I have yet to experience all that family life has to offer.  But, despite my surroundings, I'm a gentle, friendly gal who is great with all people, dogs and cats (did you hear that?!?  I'm good with cats!!)  I've ever met.  As I've spent my life outdoors, I haven't learned what is expected of an indoor dog...with that said, I'm a *very* smart girl who should quickly pick up on any new training, commands or whatever else you expect of me!  

I'm searching for a patient Best Friend who has time to play, cuddle and go on frequent walks (quality time is my number one priority!)  I've recently heard about those so-called "dog parks" and I'd love to check one out sometime!  Maybe we could even try swimming next summer...I am a labrador after all!

Are you that special someone looking to welcome a GREAT GUY into your home?  Well...what are you waiting for?  Your Best Friend is eagerly waiting for YOU at MaxFund.  Hurry on over and ask for Sydney!

Calvin

11/21/11: Calvin was adopted!


Calvin was out and about so I don't have a pic.  


Calvin bio




Muah!  Hello friends - I'm Calvin, an 11-month old akita/shar pei mix who was found running on a busy street.  A good samaritan was nice enough to stop their car and call me over.  I headed straight toward this nice soul and s(he) brought me to MaxFund where I've quickly emerged as a social butterfly who gets along great with other dogs (I'm rather smitten by my female canine neighbor!), as well as all people I've met.  In addition to my handsome-ness, I'm known for my affectionate personality (I love hugs & prefer kisses on the lips!) & eagerness to please those around me.

Like any young'un, I'll need a family with the time, dedication and patience to teach me what is expected of a stellar adult canine citizen.  I promise to spend my entire life thanking you for your up-front investment!  In fact, I love car rides so I would love to accompany you around town and show-off what a great dog-guardian you are!  

If a young, playful, handsome, affectionate 4-legged companion would mesh well in your family, then please hurry on in to MaxFund today so I can demonstrate what a great kisser I am!!  Muah...until we meet!

Jitter Bug

11/29/11: Jitterbug was adopted!


Sweet, shy guy






Single, somewhat reserved but excessively sweet gray terrier mix seeks caring, lovable family for lifelong companionship.  A bit about myself: I'm a 50-lb, 11-month old guy who was transported from a high-kill shelter in a neighboring state when someone realized what a catch I truly am.  I'm currently in the big dog room here at MaxFund actively searching for my Forever Family!


I'm searching for a companion (or companions) who realize what my laid-back approach to life.  When you first visit me, I'll quietly wag my tail while looking deep into your eyes to see if you might be my soul-mate.  The MaxFund folks are working hard to to teach me some typical doggie aspects of a life such a how to walk on a leash and some basic obedience commands.  My easy-going nature allows me to appreciate the company of all people and many canines I've met around MaxFund.  Since I've had no witnessed encounters with cats or young children, I'm unsure how we'd enjoy each other's company.  At the end of each day, I'm hopeful to spend some quality time cuddling with my family (and I'm not a big shedder so I'll take all my hair with me at the end of each cuddling session!)


Are you that special someone searching for a fantastically sweet four-legged companion?  No pressure!  Let's just relax and get to know each other a little.  We can figure out if we're a good match...and THEN I can trot right on out of here into the sunset and into my FOREVER home.
