Meet Max, the connoisseur of comfortable seating and the undisputed king of chairs. No matter where he goes Max will locate the comfiest chair in the room within seconds and claim it as his own. It’s not a hobby; it’s a lifestyle.

Max has absolutely zero concept of personal space. If he can fit in your lap, he will, regardless of the fact that he weighs 80 pounds. Maximum closeness is the only acceptable amount of closeness. He also serves as a self-appointed member of Neighborhood Security, barking at delivery trucks, suspicious squirrels, quiet breezes, and absolutely nothing at all. No threat shall go un-barked at under Max’s watch. When it comes to humans, Max has his ranking system locked in: Dad is number one by a landslide, Mom earns a respectable second place, and his brother Murphy is tolerated… when he’s not being annoying.

If Max were a Coalmarch client, he would be in pest control. This dog despises bugs with the intensity of a thousand suns, flies, palmetto bugs, anything with wings or too many legs. Nothing creepy-crawly survives in Max’s house.

In short, Max is loyal, dramatic, cuddly, and constantly monitoring the perimeter, and his family wouldn’t change a single thing.
