Original: Max Luck is not your typical Springer. He is a field bred dog imported from England. His owners bred him to their other Springer, another dog they imported. When they had trouble selling the non-conventional puppies, they put all of them into rescue!
We placed all of the dogs, but Max came back. There were accusations that Max had been snapping and growling. We placed him in a different foster home with less experience. We decided that if Max were going to act up, he would do it there. Well, he’s been a saint. He plays with their dog very well. There were a few growling incidents but only at their dog when he had been chewing on Max’s ears.
Max has been doing very well in foster care. We though his foster home was going to adopt him, so we really didn’t push placing him. However, they have decided that they aren’t ready for two dogs. Max has just been great in care. he is friendly with everyone he meets.
Max should be in a dog only household because of his high prey drive. We would prefer to place him in an active but not hectic household. He would do best without really small kids in the house. Max would be a great hunting companion, agility dog or obedience dog.
When faced with an actual placement for him – Max’s foster family decided they could not part with him. So, he will be staying with them in his new forever home.
