Max is a 2 year old, male Doberman/Belgian Malinois. Max is one of the "Ooopsy" litter pups born into rescue in 2017. He was adopted but due to the current economy his owners could no longer afford him. Max has lived with young children, goes to dog parks regularly and is a good boy. For those considering this breed mix please know the Doberman/Malinois is a very high driven, very protective dog that needs lots of energy release and structure. We have found all the Ooopsy pups in this litter are highly intelligent, need a strong leader and are very protective of their families. The Belgian Malinois is a breed often used currently by police forces and we understand why, they are easy to train, loyal, protective and an all around good dog, but very intense and smart! Max will need a strong leader who has lots of dog knowledge and ability to train and work with him and his superior intelligence. He is current on vaccines, neutered, chipped and fully vetted. If interested in a lifetime of happiness with this sweet guy, please fill out the application to adopt!
