CEDAR CREEK TAYLOR'S MAX

Max has grown into a lovely boy!

Ever since he was a pup, he's accompanied his owners wherever they went, whether to do chores (sheep, cattle, pigs) or go to town (elevator/feedstore/grocery store). They have patiently allowed Max to grow, both mentally and physically, as they've engaged themselves in their daily work and lifestyle.
When Max reached 9-10 months old, he started riding in the back of the pickup truck and he's never attempted to jump out even when he's left there while his owner goes in the above mentioned stores.

Funny story: One hot summer day Max did not stay in the truck box and when his owner came out of the store, he thought he had to go look for Max in their small town. When he walked around the other side of the pick-up, there laid Max in the shade.....where it was much cooler to wait!

Max even knows where to sit when the 5th wheel trailer is hooked up and easily maneuvers himself when turning corners......avoids getting hit by the gooseneck!

Max works cattle better than sheep and loves the pigs, knowing to grab the ears instead of the "hams". Their livestock is on several farms and of course Max knows the diversity of each, just like he knows the difference in the stock. As neighbors help each other, so has Max....impressively working, getting the job at hand done in his natural style. Those that need help (to make their work easier, move stubborn/rank stock) give Max's owners a call just so they can use Max!
