Meet McKinley & Maximilian — Double the Gold, Double the Love! Looking for two dogs who will love you endlessly, follow you everywhere, and make every day brighter? Meet McKinley and Maximilian, two golden-hearted brothers who define the term Velcro dogs! These petite Golden Retriever mixes are the ultimate lovebugs — affectionate, goofy, loyal, and happiest when they’re glued to their humans. These sweet boys have been through a lot of changes — from shelter life to boarding, to a home, and back again — but through it all, their spirits have stayed golden. They were once left outside for 10 hours a day, which just doesn’t suit dogs who live for companionship. McKinley and Max don’t want to be backyard dogs; they want to be family dogs — right beside you for movie nights, morning walks, and afternoon naps. Now in a foster home, they’re thriving indoors and soaking up all the love they can get. They’ve done beautifully with other dogs and even enjoy hanging out with older kids (tested for ages 7 and up). Both are young, smart, and food-motivated, so training has been a breeze — especially with their new Gentle Leaders, recommended by a behaviorist. They’re already showing great improvement on walks! These two are the perfect mix of playful and cuddly — they love a good game of fetch, but they’ll melt into you for snuggles afterward. McKinley and Max would be happiest in a home where someone is around most of the time and ready for double the affection (and maybe double the dog hair ). If you’ve been dreaming of loyal companions who will never let you feel lonely, these golden brothers are your guys. They’ll bring joy, laughter, and unconditional love to any home lucky enough to have them. Ready to meet your new shadows? Come fall in love with McKinley and Maximilian — we promise, it won’t take long!
