Meet our Pet of the Week Max. He's a 7-year-old neutered black and white pointer mix who's up for adoption at the Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League.
"He really is pretty much a calm guy. He does need to be exercised. He's a little on the plump side, so we need someone who will take him on some nice long walks," said Adoptions Manager Niki Gottesman. "But you don't necessarily need a real big backyard for Max."
Max would be better off as an only child, but he seems to like kitty cats and is ok with other dogs.
"He is part of our senior-to-senior program, so if you are 55 or older, he'd be a complementary adoption. You'd just have to pay for his rabies tag," Gottesman added.
Max is up for adoption at the Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League. If you adopt Max, his initial exam is free complements of our Pet Connections Sponsors:
Kelly's Animal Hospital in Port St. Lucie, Animal Wellness in West Palm Beach and Ft. Lauderdale, and Lantana-Atlantis Animal Hospital in Lantana.

Operating continuously since 1925, we have been positively impacting animal welfare and addressing overpopulation in Palm Beach County through a variety of services.
Through the adoption and spay/neuter programs, our vision is to ensure that there are no homeless animals and every animal has a home in Palm Beach County.
