Meet Maxx, a 5-year-old mixed breed dog looking for his forever home through the Potter League for Animals in Middletown.

This gentle soul weighs 42 pounds and is the perfect companion for someone who enjoys the simple things in life with a loyal friend by their side.

Maxx might be a bit shy at first, but give him some time and he’ll show you his sweet, cuddly side. Even though he’s an adult, he still has a playful spirit. He’s all about quiet evenings, cozy beds, and the occasional treat.

If you’re interested in adopting Maxx, keep in mind he’s part of a Special Adoption program through the Behavior Department. To set up a meeting, email abrzozowy@potterleague.org.

The adoption fee for Maxx is $162.50. He’s neutered and up-to-date on his vaccinations.

The Potter League for Animals in Middletown offers several ways to support their mission. You can adopt, donate, or share animal profiles on social media to help pets like Maxx find their perfect homes.
