Arlington Pet of the Week: Max Goforth

The newest Pet of the Week is Max Goforth, a 3-year-old mini goldendoodle named after Max Scherzer. (Go Nats!)

Here’s what Max had to say about his life in Virginia Square:

My name is Max Goforth. I am a 3-year-old mini goldendoodle (F1). I am originally from North Dakota. I now reside in Virginia Square, but you can find me on all of the streets of Arlington because I love walking! I also love treats and any attention I can get.

Fun fact about me is that I am named after Max Scherzer. GO NATS! One time, I actually attended Pups in the Park, and I SWEAR Max made eye contact with me. I didn’t get famous, but BOY did I get a lot of pets!

Want your pet to be considered for the Arlington Pet of the Week? Email [email protected] with a 2-3 paragraph bio and at least 3-4 horizontally-oriented photos of your pet. Please don’t send vertical photos — they don’t fit in our photo galleries!

We are also looking for local pets who look like their owners or like celebrities. Email us photos of your pet and their doppelgänger, explaining the resemblance and whether it has been noticed in your neighborhood.
