Max & Mae’s experience

  • About Max & Mae

    We started breeding for the love of the breed and how amazing they are and wanted to share them with everyone we can.

  • What makes Max & Mae’s program special

    A lot of our puppies are used for service work. We currently have 48 active service dogs. From search and rescue, PTSD, Cardiac and diabetic detection, emotional support, helping the hearing impaired, helping people walk, and balance support too. Our Male Titan is my girlfriend's service dog who has his CGC certification, visits hospitals and nursing homes too.
