If you’re looking for a lovable ball of energy, we have just the boy for you! For today’s Pet of the Day, brought to you by Morgantown Bank & Trust, we met Max. This excitable lab-retriever mix was a stray, so he’s never had a home of his own. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t deserve a forever family! Max definitely needs daily walks and a big yard but he is the sweetest boy and is sure to be someone’s best friend. You can adopt Max today at the Bowling Green, Warren County Humane Society.
