Max

We sure love this dog.

 

He likes to be involved in whatever is happening.

One of the few occasions that will cause him to bark is when there is a toy under the couch.

 I've never seen a dog stretch out on his stomach with all his limbs out like this, but Max does it a lot.

He loves to be outside, and now that it's regularly a bit warmer he spends hours a day in our backyard. He has become a bit of an escape artist (annoying), but otherwise he runs sprints around the yard, chases leaves or birds, or often sits on the deck keeping watch.

He does think anything on the floor is a chew toy, and many of Jake's toys have ended up like this.

He loves his kennel and often goes in there for naps or around 7-8pm for bed. If the door is closed, he waits till we notice and open it for him.

 He loves to bask in the sun.

He was a good choice for an addition to our family and the kids are as enamored with him now as they were when we brought him home.
