This is an update on Max. I did a reference when we had first gotten him. Well this is our big bouy now. He will be a year old at the end of June and as you can see he is quite large and just stunning. He is considered plush, but we believe he is really a long-haired German Shepherd. He loves people and always welcomes them. He's very intelligent, but needs additional training still. We continue to get compliments on him and are always asked where she came from. I am more than happy to give Mike good reviews and will continue to update with references as he grows so any potential buyers can see what magnificent animals Mike has. Thank you again vomnordostenhaus.
